EFFECTS OF MIRROR COATING THICKNESS NON-UNIFORMITIES ON POLARIZATION AND OPTICAL FIGURE PROPERTIES OF LASER AND BEACON LIGHT
-
Abstract
This paper discusses mirror coating nonuniformities caused by geometrical constraints in the chamber used and their effects on polarization of light beams for enhanced metal coatings. Phase distortions of 1.06-μm laser beam and 0.5893-μ beacon beam have been calculated. Phase distortions with same signs have been abtained using a modified design.
