Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a CaF 2 substrate which is a material for optical components (windows, lenses, beam splitters, etc.) used in ultraviolet optical equipment such as high-power / high-repetition excimer lasers.

る。2. Description of the Related Art Dielectric multilayer films are used in various infrared, visible, and ultraviolet laser optical components (total reflection mirrors, beam splitters, lenses, window materials, etc.). Alternatively, it is known as a general technique to stack a dielectric substance on the surface of an optical substrate by a vacuum deposition method or the like to obtain a reflection characteristic and form an antireflection film, a partial reflection film or a high reflection film. (For example, Kubota et al. “Optical Technology Handbook”), conventional antireflection films used for visible camera lenses and the like have absorption in the ultraviolet region in most cases, and these dielectric multilayers for antireflection films are used. The film material cannot be directly applied to the ultraviolet region such as excimer laser. It is necessary to select and use a dielectric multilayer film material having good optical characteristics in the wavelength range to be used.

MgF2膜の吸湿性によりレーザ光照射に伴い吸収熱が増
大することで、照射部分のMgF2膜が劣化し、透過率が
大きく低下してしまうという課題を有していた。However, many oxides used as high and low refractive index substances undergo thermal decomposition by conventional vapor deposition methods and conditions such as resistance heating and electron beam vapor deposition, and are lower oxides. , Which results in an increase in absorption, and further changes in optical and physical constants such as refractive index and density. Magnesium fluoride (hereinafter referred to as MgF 2 ) which is optically transparent and easy to manufacture in a wide range from the ultraviolet region to the infrared region is often used as a low refractive index material for an antireflection film.
Due to the hygroscopicity of the MgF 2 film, the absorbed heat increases with the irradiation of the laser beam, so that the MgF 2 film at the irradiated portion is deteriorated, and the transmittance is greatly reduced.

が大きく変化するという課題を有していた。As described above, the optical parts for laser produced by the conventional method of forming a multilayer film and the conventional multilayer film material have low light resistance, and the usable power level is about 100 W at most. Further, there is a problem that the heat generated by the absorbed light changes the refractive index and the density of the film and the spectrum largely changes even before the destruction.

When it comes to z, the excimer laser light, which should be a pulse laser for the optical components used, is also subject to the same thermal damage as continuous light. In addition to this, the irradiation of the laser beam, which is higher than that of the conventional one by one digit or more, causes a problem that the heat generated by even a slight absorption is generated in the optical component.

トルが大幅に変化するという課題を有していた。In particular, the temperature of the beam-irradiated portion increases sharply and local heating occurs. As a result, in the first part of the optical component, the multilayer film part, which is the most vulnerable to heat, is destroyed, then the substrate is thermally deformed, and finally the optical component itself is destroyed. It also had challenges. Specifically, the multilayer film produced by the conventional method had a problem that the spectrum was significantly changed by heating at 300 ° C.

In order to achieve a low absorptivity by suppressing the formation of a low-grade oxide, a non-hygroscopic oxide (high: MgO, low: SiO 2 ) is used as a high / low refractive index substance, and By stabilizing the physical constants, a CaF 2 substrate that can be used as an optical component for a high-power, high-repetition excimer laser and has sufficient heat resistance that can be used even in an environment where the optical component is exposed to high temperatures The antireflection film for use can be obtained.
