3 Vacuum Optics Vacuum Optics pplications and Requirements For a large number of applications it is necessary to transport electromagnetic waves such as light or laser radiation from atmosphere into vacuum or from vacuum into atmosphere. The range of possible applications covers simple tasks like viewing the inside of a vacuum chamber or illuminating such a chamber, as well as the defined coupling in and out of light for scientific or processing purposes. High requirements to optics have to be fulfilled for high-precision, nearly loss-free transmission of optical information. This large number of applications leads to a variety of optical components and systems with different characteristics. Monitoring and illumination can be realized with simple viewports made out of borosilicate glass. For defined coupling in and out of light, viewport materials with defined optical quality, special viewport designs and optical fiber feedthroughs are available. Here, the application and its requirements define the choice of optical material. The main aspects in choosing the right optical material are wavelength, transport distance, birefringence or wavefront deformation and possible losses in power or energy. Viewports are preferred, when the target in the chamber can be reached directly in a straight line or with the help of a small number of mirrors. Typical viewport materials have a low absorption in the desired wavelength range and feature minimal losses for a given thickness. dditionally anti-reflection coatings, optimized for the wavelength or wavelength range of interest are used to minimize surface reflections. High absorbing materials can be used to block radiation e.g. lead-glass is a good X-Ray shielding material. The choice of materials and components of the flange-to-viewport assembly can be optimized to fulfill special requirements on magnetic permeability or conductivity. Optical fibers are used when the source or destination for the radiation is not easily accessible or when flexible guiding of optical signals or waves is necessary. Here, in comparison to viewports the electromagnetic wave travels a rather long distance through the optical material, so dispersion (wavelength-dependent velocity of propagation) is relevant. Special fibers minimize or neutralize this effect. Not only optical properties like transmission range, parallelism, surface quality or polarization maintenance (PM) are relevant for vacuum optics components. Further requirements crucial for vacuum components have to be fulfilled. These are for example the right flange type and size, pressure and temperature stability, radiation and corrosion resistance or requirements to electrical and magnetic properties as well as minimal outgassing or qualification for cleanroom applications. Such a profile of requirements is accomplished by a selection of appropriate optic materials, joining technologies and coating or processing methods. n experienced team of specialists in optics, material sciences and vacuum technology is looking forward to finding a solution for your special application. -3

4 Vacuum Optics Basics Interactions between electromagnetic waves and optical material When an electromagnetic wave passes through an optical material such as glass, a large number of interactions take place (refraction, reflection, absorption, scattering). These interactions can change the radiation itself as well as the optical material. For typical applications in optics, transmission T or alternatively decay in terms of damping are highly relevant. Both parameters describe the amount of the original intensity I or power P that remains after transmitting through the optical material. a) b) Figure 1 Basic phenomena when light passes through an optical material. a) intensities I for direct material transmission (e.g. viewport), b) powers P when total reflection occurs at the vertical interfaces (optical fiber) Figure 1 shows the basic phenomena when light passes through an optical material (refractive index n 2 ). In this case the surrounding medium has a lower optical density (refractive index n 1 ) than the optical material, meaning n 1 < n 2. The transmission T Ges is defined as the fraction of intensity of the light leaving the material I T2 and intensity of the light coupled into the material I 0 (figure 1a). The intensity being the energy divided by time and area or in other words power density is connected to power P. So above remarks also apply for powers P T2 and P 0 (figure 2a). In this case, for smaller numbers, a decay in power is described by damping = 10 log ( P T2 / P 0 ). The unit of damping is decibel (db). In part a) of figure 1 (viewport) light propagation takes place in a straight line without interference of the vertical interfaces. This is always the case when the dimensions of the optical material are big compared to the light beam or the beam displacement. This assumption holds true for conventional viewports. In part b) the same process is shown supposed that vertical interfaces affect the propagation of light. This is the case for optical elements where lateral dimensions are small compared to dimensions in the direction of the beam. Entry into optical material ight entry is the first part of the whole process. The wave hits interface 1 with the original intensity I 0 and angle α. t this event, which is a transition with growing optical density (n 2 > n 1 ), a fraction of the intensity I R1 is reflected under the same angle α, and the rest of the beam is refracted into the optical material with intensity I T1 and angle β. Because n 2 > n 1 the angle β is smaller than α. The following transmission and damping is reached: and Neglecting absorption at interface 1 transmission and reflection R 1 = I R1 / I 0 add up to T 1 + R 1 = 1. The damping 1 is also called insertion loss I. -4

5 Vacuum Optics Basics Beam transmission The wave with the intensity I T1 or power P T1 propagates in the optical material. Here, further decay in intensity I T (d) or in power P T (d) takes place, depending on the distance d. This decay is due to absorption and can be described by an exponential decay I T (d)= I T1 e -ad with absorption coefficient a. Transmission and damping can be written for this process also: and In this case transmission is also called internal or material transmission, damping is also called intrinsic damping or intrinsic loss. In case of damping, it is common to divide by length to get a length independent value (d) / d. With optical fibers lengths have to be very high for significant damping to occur, so the signal loss is divided by length in kilometers. The unit is [] = db / km. Beam exit The last process is similar to the first process of material entry. The beam is coupled out of the material again. part of the beam is reflected with intensity I R2 and angle β and a part of the beam is refracted with intensity I T2 and angle α out of the optical material. Because the refraction now takes place from high refractive index to low refractive index, the angle of the out-coupled beam is again α, when the surrounding material is the same on both sides. Transmission and damping are: and With optical fibers, 2 is not used at all. Rather a return loss R is specified, which characterizes the fraction of the signal that is lost during coupling out. This is a bit misleading, because by its definition R = 10 log ( P T (d) / P R2 ) return loss is an amplification. Optical specifications Concluding, intensity and damping for the whole process can be composed by the values of the single processes: and For viewports, where lateral dimensions are big compared to the light beam, it is likely to use the transmission T. Included in this transmission are material properties, dimensions of the optical element, as well as quality and condition of the surfaces. For optical fibers, and especially for fiber lengths of a couple of meters, intrinsic loss and return loss are not relevant. Here insertion loss I = 1 is the most relevant value, specifying quality of interfaces and of interconnect confectioning. Only when passing an interface, where the transition takes place from a material with higher refractive index (e.g. glass) to a lower refractive index (e.g. air), total reflection may occur. This allows for nearly loss-free transport of light over very long distances. If a critical angle θ K is exceeded during transition (e.g. in interface 2 in figure 1 as well as in every vertical interface in figure 1, part b), refraction is not possible anymore because the resulting angle is too high. In this case the whole wave is reflected back. For this effect to occur a minimal coupling angle α has to be obeyed. This angle results from: The sine of this angle is also called numerical aperture N, which is used for specifying optical fibers. Furthermore an acceptance cone results for optical fibers. In order to be transmitted through the fiber, light has to be coupled-in within the area of this cone. -5

6 Vacuum Optics Materials for Vacuum Optics and Their Properties Transmission and quality of optical materials bsorption coefficient a, transmission T and reflection R all depend on the wavelength l used in the application. The wavelength and the spectral width of radiation therefore limit and define the material that can be used. For use as transmission optics, key features are low absorption meaning high material transmission. In figure 2, some optical materials and their transmission ranges used by VCOM for ultraviolet (UV), visible (VIS) and infrared radiation are shown. Figure 2 Transmission ranges for some of the optical materials used by VCOM These materials are not only suitable for optics applications, but also for vacuum use (pressure and temperature stability). These materials are in principle only available for viewports. For optical fibers, only quartz (Fused Silica) is used. To make optical fibers available for applications where a larger transmission range is needed, currently alternatives in material are discussed and tested. For many applications it is not only important to have a high transmission, but also to ensure that the wave itself or the light path is not influenced. Examples are microscopy, lithographic applications, optical measurements or high power applications. Here, irregularities such as inhomogeneity, bubbles, striae or inclusions have to be kept minimal. lso lattice defects and impurities in crystals are a problem. Especially in high power applications defects in the surface or impurities result in a high energy take-up and could lead to material damage. ccording to the requirements, different cleanliness grades and scratch / dig or homogeneity classes are specified. Quality and cleanliness of optical surfaces While the optical material itself, as well as cleanliness and quality of the material mainly affects the losses while the radiation is inside the optical element, the surfaces and their constitution define the losses for entry and discharge of wave. Therefore, these optical interfaces define the transmissions T 1 and T 2 and the insertion loss 1 and return loss R or damping 2. Impurities, scratches and roughness or surface curvature lead to losses due to scattering or affect the wave. Surface quality can be improved by using special production methods (e.g. float glass technology, CV) or additional production steps (e.g. polishing). For optical surfaces it is common to specify scratches and digs in classes, further form tolerance or flatness (e.g. inter-ferometrically determined errors with respect to a reference wavelength) and parallelism (inclination of the optical interfaces to each other). Scratch / ig The different scratch / dig classes are specified by the use of reference samples, which are compared to the optical specimen. The value specified by the according scratch class is the maximal width of the included scratches in µm. In an optical element with scratch class 20 for example, scratches are 20 µm in width or lower. The dig class is a measure for the maximal diameter of included point defects (digs) in 0.01 mm. For example, an optical element with a dig class of 20 holds defects with a maximal diameter of 20 x 0.01 mm = 0.2 mm. Typical values for scratch / dig are 80 / 50 for standard optics, 60 / 40 for elements with optical quality and 20 / 10 or lower for high precision optics. Flatness Flatness for planar surfaces or more general form tolerance for arbitrary surfaces, describes the difference of the surface tested from an ideal shape. Because interferometry is used to specify flatness, it is common, to specify flatness as a multiple of the test wavelength λ (e.g. 632 nm). For flatness, 1 λ is standard quality, λ / 4 is optical quality and λ / 8 and smaller is high precision grade. To ensure cleanliness of optical elements and vacuum components, vacuum optic products at VCOM are partly available as a cleanroom packed version with low outgassing rates.

7 Vacuum Optics Materials for Vacuum Optics and Their Properties nti-reflection coating of optical surfaces Transmissions T 1 and T 2 can be further raised, when anti-reflection (R) coatings are applied to optical surfaces. These multilayer systems are based on optical interference. esigning and choosing the right layer system can significantly lower reflectance for one or some specific wavelengths (e.g. VR for one, WR for two wavelengths, from the form of the reflectance curves). lso optimization of reflectance for a broad range of wavelengths is possible (BBR, broadband anti-reflection). s an example, reflectance of uncoated quartz (Fused Silica) viewport as well as the same material with VR and BBR coating is shown in figure 3 as a function of wavelength. The reflectance curves shown on the following pages depict the different coatings schematically and therefore only represent reference values. Figure 3 Schematic reflectance curves for a quartz surface: uncoated, with BBR-coating and with VR-coating For materials with a low refractive index (e.g. magnesium fluoride) the overall transmission is mainly defined by material absorption and not by reflection at the interfaces. Here, applying an anti-reflection coating does not lead to a significant increase in transmission. Optical Fibers, Feedthroughs and Connectors The composition of an optical fiber is shown in figure 4. The parts, which allow for light transmission, are a fiber core with a high refractive index and a fiber cladding with a low refractive index. ight propagation is possible using total reflection. For protection of the sensitive fiber, additional layers are used. One or more coating layers provide a basic protection. One or more buffers provide further protection against mechanical stress or damage due to chemicals. Figure 4 Composition of an optical fiber -

8 Vacuum Optics Optical Fibers, Feedthroughs and Connectors The diameter of the fiber core determines if light of just one wavelength or a comparably short wavelength range is transmitted (singlemode fibers) or if light of a rather large wavelength range (multimode fibers) is transmitted. VCOM standard fibers and their respective operation wavelengths / wavelength ranges are shown in figure 5. Special fibers are available on request. Please do not hesitate to contact as for special solutions. Figure 5 Standard fibers available at VCOM and their respective operations wavelengths / wavelength ranges With VCOM s solution, an atmosphere cable, an optical fiber feedthrough with short coupling length and a vacuum cable realize transporting light from the atmosphere into vacuum or out of vacuum onto the atmosphere. With this assembly, in case of a fiber fracture, only the broken cable has to be replaced, whereas in a solution with continuous fiber the whole assembly would have to be replaced. To maintain low insertion losses, high quality in connection technology is required. Therefore VCOM optical fiber feedthroughs use FC/PC and FC/PC connectors, which couple fiber end faces by physical contact to one another. With FC/PC fiber end faces are tilted by 8 to minimize back reflections, which is often needed in laser applications. For atmosphere cables, adapters to nearly any connector are possible. Handling and ccessories for Optical Components Optical components and surfaces are very sensitive to scratches, dirt or particles like dust, especially when polished or coated. When cleaning, only appropriate tools (lint free optic wipes, cleaning sticks) and chemicals (isopropyl alcohol p.a., acetone p.a.) are to be used. Wiping on coated viewports damages the coating.

We also offer special cleaning accessories for our products. -8

9 Standard Viewports Standard Viewports pplications of standard viewports made of borosilicate and fused silica are mainly monitoring and illumination tasks. Requirements to these viewports are primarily the flange type (CF, KF, ISO), desired pressure range and operation temperature. Viewports with removable O-ring seals are suitable for high vacuum applications and for temperatures up to 150 C. For higher requirements in pressure or temperature, viewports are required in which glass and flange are permanently joined (e.g. by soldering). To prevent tensions that occur during heating, cooling or installing viewports most commonly an intermediate material like e.g. Kovar (an iron-nickel-cobalt alloy) is used that compensates tension. When magnetic permeability is an issue, tantalum, titanium or baked steel is used as an intermediate material for standard viewports. t VCOM viewports for the most common CF, KF and ISO flange sizes are available as well as Q (quick access doors, see Special viewports) for an easy, quick access to a vacuum chamber. Furthermore, standard viewports are available as Quick CF version with integrated glass window which can be installed more rapidly.

15 Viewports for Optical pplications Introduction The main requirement for a viewport in an optical application is excellent transmission in a defined wavelength range and thus the choice of the optical material. For UV-VIS-NIR (appr. 200 nm to µm) VCOM offers quartz / fused silica, quartz crystal, sapphire, magnesium fluoride and calcium fluoride. Zinc selenide and zinc sulfide are mainly used in VIS-IR applications (approx. 0.6 µm to 15 µm). For IR use, the semiconducting viewport materials silicon and germanium are an option. Further requirements are temperature stability or radiation resistance. Quartz viewports feature high radiation resistance (for e.g. high power laser applications) while sapphire is applicable in high temperature applications (up to 450 C). epending on further requirements, viewports are available in different configurations. Main differences are optical quality, temperature stability, magnetic permeability and heating and cooling rates. Here the joining technology (e.g. soldering) and choice of material define the properties of the product. For optimized transmission in some commonly used spectral ranges, we offer viewports with different anti-reflection coatings. Furthermore, special R coatings for individual wavelengths or wavelength ranges are available on request. lso, exceeding the list of products in this chapter, other materials (e.g. barium fluoride or beryllium) and flange types and sizes are available. Please do not hesitate to contact us for further questions or requests. Quality and cleanliness of optical surfaces While the optical material itself, as well as cleanliness and quality of the material mainly affects the losses while the radiation is inside the optical element, the surfaces and their constitution define the losses for entry and discharge of wave. Therefore, these optical interfaces define the transmissions T 1 and T 2 and the insertion loss 1 and return loss R or damping 2. Impurities, scratches and roughness or surface curvature lead to losses due to scattering or affect the wave. Surface quality can be improved by using special production methods (e.g. float glass technology, CV) or additional production steps (e.g. polishing). For optical surfaces it is common to specify scratches and digs in classes, further form tolerance or flatness (e.g. interferometrically determined errors with respect to a reference wavelength) and parallelism (inclination of the optical interfaces to each other). Scratch / ig The different scratch/dig classes are specified by the use of reference samples, which are compared to the optical specimen. The value specified by the according scratch class is the maximal width of the included scratches in µm. In an optical element with scratch class 20 for example, scratches are 20 µm in width or lower. The dig class is a measure for the maximal diameter of included point defects (digs) in 0.01 mm. For example, an optical element with a dig class of 20 holds defects with a maximal diameter of 20 x 0.01 mm = 0.2 mm. Typical values for scratch/dig are 80/50 for standard optics, 60/40 for elements with optical quality and 20/10 or lower for high precision optics. Flatness Flatness for planar surfaces or more general form tolerance for arbitrary surfaces, describes the difference of the surface tested from an ideal shape. Because interferometry is used to specify flatness, it is common, to specify flatness as a multiple of the test wavelength λ (e.g. 632 nm). For flatness, 1 λ is standard quality, λ/4 is optical quality and λ/8 and smaller is high precision grade. To ensure cleanliness of optical elements and vacuum components, vacuum optic products at VCOM are partly available as a cleanroom packed version with low outgassing rates.

40 Special Viewports and dditional Components Special Viewports and dditional Components ITO (Indium Tin Oxide) is used as a coating to borosilicate or sapphire viewports to allow electric conductivity while maintaining optical transmission. This prevents charge-build-up, the distortion of electric fields and the adsorption of charged particles (e.g. ceramic powders). dditionally scintillation films (also known as phosphor films) can be deposited on these viewports to visualize diffraction patterns of electrons. Such coated viewports mainly used in surface analytical techniques such as RHEE (reflection high energy electron diffraction). In some applications (e.g. RHEE) X-ray radiation is generated or used. To prevent this radiation from leaving the vacuum chamber X-ray absorbing lead glass caps can be attached to VCOM vacuum viewports. To keep a clear view, rotatable viewport shutters can be placed on the vacuum-side of the viewport to shield the glass from heat or material deposition during processing. In order to position optical elements more flexibly a variety of special designs such as glass-to-metall-adaptors, re-entry-viewports, viewports connected with metal tubes or bellows are available. With such designs optical elements can for example be dunked into the vacuum chamber and thus be brought closer to the test object. This can be used for focusing purposes. nother example is the connection of two chambers with a transparent glass-tube for monitoring purposes. -40
