165Measurement and Detection of Laser-Induced Damage
Chapter 6
evaluation methods, including single-shot, multishot, ramp testing, and raster scan,
have been developed to fully characterize the damage resistance and behaviors from
dierent aspects. ese four testing methods are helpful to gain insight on the laser
damage process.
6.3.1 Denition of Laser-Induced Damage Threshold
Laser-induced damage threshold is dened as the highest quantity of laser radiation
incident upon the optical component, for which the extrapolated probability of damage
is zero. Here, the quantity of laser radiation may be expressed as energy density, power
density, or ...
