Abstract

Cleanliness management is essential for the safe operation of high power laser systems. In order to maintain the transmittance and minimize the optics damage, we should protect the optics surface with coatings from contamination. Large aperture optics in the vacuum is easily contaminated by airborne molecular from material outgas. In this paper, we introduce the techniques of cleanliness management in SG-II-UP laser facility. The online monitoring of surface airborne molecular contaminant is carried out with quartz crystal microbalance. We investigated the influence of the airborne molecular contaminant on the 351nm transmittance of fused silica optics with sol-gel coatings.
