Two growth groups, columnar and granular growth, were found and main structure buildings elements with its characteristical medium size have been determined. Using SIMS, SNMS, RBS, and partially spectroscopical and gravimetrical measurements, the O and C contamination of the films has been investigated. The quantitative results were related to the characteristical structure building elements.enDünne optische Schichtexcimer laser opticsExcimer-Laser-Optikfluoride thin filmsFluoridschichtlaser induced damage thresholdLaserzerstörschwelleoptical coatingoptical thin filmsoxide thin filmsOxidschichtultraviolet spectral regionultravioletter SpektralbereichUV620Investigation of inhomogenities and impurities in fluoride coatings for high power excimer lasersconference paper
