Initiation of Laser Damage at Surface Imperfections on Fused Silica Optics

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Imperfections on optical surfaces contain fractured, densified and displaced material. After physical isolation, the laser damage susceptibility of specific defect structures has been determined. Fractures, rather than displaced or densified material limits laser damage performance.
