Abstract
Broadening of multilayer-mirror reflection band is achieved by slow variation of its period. The paper is devoted to the theory of such optical elements based on a general theory of wave propagation through a quasi-periodic medium. The calculation results are presented for the reflection coefficient of broadband mirrors in the 1 to 50 Å range. A statement of the inverse problem is also considered, namely, creation of a multilayer structure possessing the prescribed reflection coefficient.
