Recent year, they require the high performances of laser as a light source in variety application area. For instance, those are a shorter wavelength, a shorter pulse width. In order to serve those needs, an improvement of the laser damage threshold value of optical element used in the laser applications is required. And they reported that a surface-roughness of glass substrate as used coated optical element exert also influence that. Currently, the chemical mechanical polishing method (CMP method) is general used as the polishing method of optical element. This method is a friction method. Therefore, the reduction of the surface-roughness is prevented by generation of scratches and digs that keep happening by contamination in slurry. In order to solve this problem, we propose the optical near-field etching method (ONE). The ONE is operated by irradiation of a SHG light (λ=532nm) of Nd:YAG laser on glass substrate in chlorine gas atmosphere that have a optical absorption band edge of 400nm. The radical formation of the chlorine molecular is created by non-adiabatic photochemical reaction due to optical near-field occurred in glass surface. And the etching is progressed in the projection of glass surface. With this processing, we can achieve the reduction of R_a value of surfaceroughness from 0.2nm to 0.13nm. In addition, we gave the mirror coating to the glass substrate to which the surfaceroughness was improved by ONE and measured the laser damage threshold value. Accordingly, we obtained 14.0J/cm²as the laser damage threshold value. The laser damage threshold value of the glass substrate without ONE is 8.2J/cm². It is shown that the laser damage threshold increase by 1.7 times by ONE.
