Effects of Annealing on Residual Stress in Ta2O5 Films Deposited by Dual Ion Beam Sputtering

Optical coatings deposited by the dual ion beam sputtering (DIBS) method usually show high compressive stress, which results in severe wavefront deformation of optical elements. Annealing post-treatment has been widely used to control the residual stress of optical coatings. However, the effect of a...
