Abstract
This paper discusses questions of the fabrication of dielectric coatings on nonlinear optical BBO crystals. The effect of sputtering methods and subse quent gas and heat treatment on the mechanical and radiation strength of Si O2+/-delta-based dielectric coatings is studied. The dependence of the lase r-damage thresholds of the coatings on their nonstoichiometry with respect to oxygen is analyzed. (C) 2000 The Optical Society of America. [S1070-9762 (00)00611-4].
