Laser-Induced Damage in Optical Materials
irradiance and reduction of laser spot size toward single laser wavelength (Gruzdev and
Libenson 1994, 2000). at depolarization might be responsible for the specic polariza-
tion dependence of LID threshold reported for small laser spots (Soileau etal. 1989) since
it tends to produce similar polarization patterns for both initial linear and initial circular
polarizations at self-focus area. erefore, reduction of the ratio of LID thresholds for
the two dierent polarizations with decrease of laser spot radius down to few microm-
eters does not mean suppression of self-focusing but might result from ...
