Laser-induced damage at 1064 nm, 125 psec.
A general review of extensive damage measurements using linearly polarized 1064-nm pulses with durations of 125 +/- 25 psec is presented. Samples tested included bare polished glass surfaces, several types of dielectric thin films, plastics, diamond-turned and polished metal surfaces, and evaporated metal films. A multiple- beam apparatus which allows rapid measurements of laser-damage thresholds is also described.
