[Thermodynamics process of laser drilling on copper surface].

The laser drilling experiment was carried out on the copper surface by ns laser pulse, then the micro-morphology of the micro-hole was observed and the thermodynamic process was analyzed accordingly. The research results show that micro-hole is made of the pit in the center and surrounding uplift. The pit becomes deeper with the incident laser pulse energy.

[The influence of laser induced damage points on characters of the laser transmission].

The production and increase of damage points in optical components under high energy repetitive pulsed lasers is closely dependent on the effects of light beam intensity modulation. In the present paper, the appearance of laser-induced damage points on surface of K9 glass was observed. The damage is increased toward center.

[Study on characteristics of laser ablation in KTP crystal and its influence on the Raman spectroscopy].

The research and development of the KTP crystal with high threshold is of very importance for its application in high-energy laser systems. Ablation characteristics in KTP crystal as well as their influence on the Raman spectroscopy were studied by UV laser with high repetition frequency. The research results show that the laser plasma effects are the main reasons for the damage in the KTP crystal.

[Study on the damage of SiO2 thin films on LiNbO3 crystal in optical parametric oscillator by XRD spectrometry].

In an attempt to elucidate the damage in high transmission thin films on LiNbO3 crystal in optical parametric oscillator, the authors employed XRD spectrometry to investigate the spectrum of laser-induced damage in thin film as well as the morphology of the damage. The authors observed that the damage of thin film was characterized by the depressions/craters in the surface of the films, which were surrounded by a deposition layer with the deceasing thickness from the center of the craters. The XRD measurements indicate that the film was crystallized.
