Paper Abstract
A laser damage competition was held at the 2008 Boulder Damage Symposium in order to determine the current status
of thin film laser resistance within the private, academic, and government sectors. This damage competition allows a
direct comparison of the current state-of-the-art of high laser resistance coatings since they are all tested using the same
damage test setup and the same protocol. A normal incidence high reflector multilayer coating was selected at a
wavelength of 1064 nm. The substrates were provided by the submitters. A double blind test assured sample and
submitter anonymity so only a summary of the results are presented here. In addition to the laser resistance results,
details of deposition processes, coating materials, and layer count will also be shared.
