TESTING FOR OPTICAL COATINGS<br />

Melles Griot has tested several standard optical<br />

coatings to ensure spectral performance under<br />

non-laboratory environmental conditions. The<br />

following list identifies optical coatings that passed<br />

environmental testing for salt- fog and humidity.<br />

The humidity testing was done per MIL-C-14806A<br />

paragraph 4.4.6. The salt-fog test was done per<br />

MIL-C-14806 paragraph 4.4.8 and MIL-STD-810C<br />

reference 1.3, method 509.1, procedure I.<br />

Humidity testing was done at 120ºF and the relative<br />

humidity was at 95-100% for 24 hours. Salt-fog<br />

testing was done at a temperature of 95ºF, pH<br />

solution of 6.5, collection rate of 1.18 ml/hr, and<br />

specific gravity of 1.034.<br />

COATING CAPABILITIES<br />

Melles Griot uses a state-of-the-art, Eddy Company,<br />

SYS/48B ion-assisted coating chamber for our highprecision<br />

reflective and antireflection coatings.<br />

This fully automatic system produces multilayer<br />

dielectric coatings with excellent thin film quality,<br />

high damage thresholds, and low loss. In addition,<br />

the automatic coating process allows us to produce<br />

coatings with higher precision, better uniformity,<br />

and greater batch-to-batch repeatability. This benefits<br />

not only our research customers but also our OEM<br />

customers. To meet your specific needs Melles Griot<br />

can produce custom coatings in high volume or in<br />

prototype quantities. Contact your local Melles Griot<br />

sales office for more information.<br />

Our coating chamber is located in a Class-10,000<br />

clean room to ensure coatings of the highest quality.<br />

If required, we can also inspect coated optics in a<br />

clean room and then package them in special cleanroom<br />

packaging so that the parts can be shipped<br />

direct to and opened in a clean room environment.<br />
