Stability Of The Spectral Characteristics Of Ion Plated Interference Filters

Abstract
Ta205/Si02, Zr02/SiO2 and TiO2/SiO2 multilayer optical interference filters were deposited in a Balzers2BAP 800 coatiftg plant by reactive low-voltage ion plating. The spectral filter characteristics were investigated with respect to time and temperature. The observed stability is correlated to the water and hydrogen contents. The temperature derivatives of the refractive index of TiO2, ZrO2 and Ta205 were estimated.
