We have optimized and automated the experimental in-situ reflectivity measurement system for the laser diode (LD) facet coating. We have also developed a reflectivity-simulator program that gives the reflectivity data as a function of the thickness of the film (single or multi-layer) for a given wavelength, which aids in optimizing the above parameters while monitoring the coating of the films in-situ. We report the results for the in-situ reflectivity of a single layer MgF2 and a quarter-wave optical thick three bi-layer pairs of MgF2 and silicon on GaAs as a substrate for both the cases. We have achieved up to 83 % experimental reflectivity for the latter case.
