Abstract | Photoacoustic (PA) and photothermal (PT) beam deflection techniques were used to measure the laser damage threshold of a mirror with a stepwise reflectivity profile designed for KrF excimer lasers (248 nm). It was found that the presence of a sharp step in the coating thickness and thus in the mirror reflectivity, do not introduce a critical area for damage. |
