title: The slumping of optical surfaces during coating.
abstract: Slumping of optical surfaces takes place while antireflection substrates are being coated at 205 degrees C. Greater slumping is experienced at higher temperatures. Optical glasses held in kinetic-designed holders exhibit variable memories of reslumping. Glass elements held in nonkinetic and kinetic holders are compared at 205 degrees C.
