Optical Thin Film Coatings

Abstract

Results of a survey on optical thin film and substrate technology conducted by the European Office of Aerospace Research and Development are reported. Over thirty university, commercial, and government laboratories were visited in ten Western European nations. Specific subject areas include design, synthesis, and characterization of optical thin films, substrate preparation and testing, and production of equipment for thin film deposition. Summary section indicating the most significant efforts and general state of optical coating research in Europe is included.
