Coatings for Laser Related Applications
Most of the modern ultrafast laser systems include dispersive mirrors and other special coatings used for accurate phase control required for efficient pulse compression. Laser related coatings are multilayers providing specified group delay (GD) or/and group delay dispersion (GDD) as well as required spectral characteristic (for example, high reflectance). Specific features/requirements of these multilayers:
|
![]() Design and production of these coatings require using effective numerical design algorithms and high precision deposition techniques. OptiLayer provides all design tools/tricks for successful designing of complicated laser related coatings. OptiLayer has a close collaboration with UltraFast Innovations team which has unique capabilities for production and characterization of laser related coatings. |
![]() OptiLayer calculates all derivatives analytically! OptiLayer is only one software that provides such opportunity. Completely analytical approach + needle optimization technique allow to solve many challenging design problems in the field of laser related coatings. |
Main types of laser related coatings are:
