Abstract

Very high damage threshold Hafnia Silica mirror coating have been developed successfully thanks to a clear understanding of the main limitations of the available mirrors. Coating with a 3ns pulse width threshold above 100J/cm² are reported. These coatings proved to be much more resistant than very high quality bare silica substrate tested the same way. The limitation of these coatings is still extrinsic. The potential of this technology for large size high damage mirrors for fusion laser application is discussed.
