Research Abstract

A. Arrangement of a vacuum-ultraviolet spectrophotometer for silica glass.
In 1987 we purchased an VUV spectrophotometer (Jasco Model VUV-200) with a standard sample-chamber. Data obtained with it were compared with those obtained for the same samples using SR at ETL for reduction of measurement error. In 1988 we purchased an sample chamber of an improved type which can measure weak absorption more precisely using longer samples.
B. VUV absorption due to atomistic defects in silica glasses and its dependency on prepration histories.
We investigated quantitatively, an exponential OH tail over 7 to 8ev, a band at 7.6eV due to oxygen-deficient centers observedin glasses prepared by CVD and halogen gas dehydra-tion, and an extra tail in glasses containing oxygen-excess centers.
C. Color centers induced by excimer-laser irradiation and their suppression.
UV transmission of silica glass is severly deteriorated by an absorption band at 217nm or a band at 260nm induced by excimer-laser irradiation. We found heat-treatment in H_2 markedly supresses growth of both bands for high-OH glasses, but it enhances growth of the 217nm band for oxygen-deficient glass. We have obtained usuful knowledges of the discolora-tion problem of silica glass applied to high-power UV optics and of how to suppress it.
