Paper Abstract
HfO2/SiO2 multilayer based reflective optics enable threat detection in the short-wave/middle-wave
infrared and high power laser targeting capability in the near infrared. On the other hand, HfO2/SiO2
multilayer based transmissive optics empower early missile warning by taking advantage of the extremely
low noise light detection in the deep-ultraviolet region where solar irradiation is strongly absorbed by the
ozone layer of the earth’s atmosphere. The former requires high laser damage resistance, whereas the
latter needs a solar-blind property, i.e., high transmission of the radiation below 290 nm and strong
suppression of the solar background from 300 nm above. The technical challenges in both cases are
revealed. The spectral limits associated with the HfO2 and SiO2 films are discussed and design concepts
are schematically illustrated. Spectral performances are realized for potential A and D and commercial
applications.
