Abstract

In this study influence of temporal effects are investigated within a context of laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) measurements. 1-on-1 LIDT testing has been performed with laser operating in single- and multilongitudinal mode regimes. Four fused silica samples were chosen for investigation. Qualitative differences in the damage morphology and damage probability curve have been observed. Analysis of these phenomena was performed by employing Monte Carlo simulations representing the statistical interaction between laser irradiation and randomly distributed damage precursors. The results and findings of this study are reported and discussed in detail.
