Technical Field

Background
The electron beam evaporation deposition technology is widely applied to the preparation of laser thin film elements because of the easy acquisition of a high laser damage threshold and the easy expansion of the electron beam evaporation deposition technology for preparing large-size thin film elements. However, the performance change of the large-caliber laser thin-film component prepared by the electron beam deposition technology under different environments, such as the change of spectral performance and transmission wave surface quality, is one of the main reasons influencing the stable operation of the laser system. For example: the problems of spectral shift and the like of thin film elements caused by moisture absorption due to the change of environmental humidity are encountered in the operation process of large high-power laser devices such as national super-luminescent devices (GSP) and National Ignition (NIF). This is because the influence of the use environment of the thin film element on the performance of the thin film element is mainly that the thin film prepared by electron beam evaporation has a porous structure and is likely to interact with polar molecules such as water vapor in the environment. Therefore, reducing the porosity of the thin film element can suppress the environmental influence to some extent. At present, an ion beam assisted deposition technology or an ion beam sputtering deposition technology is often adopted to prepare an optical thin film element with higher density, the prepared thin film element has higher environmental stability but higher stress, and for a thicker optical thin film element, film cracking is easily caused to further cause failure of the thin film element; and the laser damage resistance threshold of the film element is generally lower than that of a film element prepared by an electron beam evaporation technology.
