Abstract

Waves of optical bleaching in glass-ceramic under cw Nd:YAG laser action are discovered. This phenomenon is compared with the effect of CO₂ laser radiation on the same glass-ceramic. Transparency and temperature changes of glass-ceramic ST-50-1 during the Nd:YAG laser action was investigated. Mathematical model of these periodic transparency and phase-structure oscillations is offered.
