Abstract
Durable thorium fluoride, low reflectance, high transmittance coatings for germanium (zinc sulfide, zinc selenide, gallium arsenide) exterior window surfaces are replaced using magnesium fluoride, a material previously not considered applicable to the 8 to 12 .mu.m wavelength range. This is enabled by the use of argon ion bombardment of the growing film. This method reduces the intrinsic stress of deposited films and permits growth of magnesium fluoride films of sufficient thickness to be used on the exterior surface of IR windows.
