In this paper, we give the third installment of our ongoing investigation into the nature of the laser
survivability curve (LSC). In this year’s report, We examine a set of identically polished samples coated with
the same AR coating design. One set coated using IAD process and the other e-beam. In the samples
investigated show similar asymptotic behavior within manufacturing methods, but each technique behaves
differently.© (2012) COPYRIGHT Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE). Downloading of the abstract is permitted for personal use only.
