Abstract
Laser based devices, have been operational for measurement of distances horizontally and vertically in avionics and surveillance industries. These equipments are functional on pulsed Nd:YAG laser at 1064nm, this wavelength elevate the risk of eye exposure to personnel at unexpected levels. In this paper the eye protection filters, for the wavelength 1064nm were developed with soft (ZnS) and hard (TiO2) coating materials by using thin film vacuum coating technique. The damage threshold of the filter is 0.2 J/cm2. Transmission characteristics are measured and discussed. Optical damage threshold (for eye 5 × 10−6 J/cm2) at various distances is also simulated.
