Measurements of laser-induced damage thresholds for KGSS 0180 neodymium glass surface
2007
Dependences of energy damage thresholds on radiation parameters and geometry for KGSS 0180 phosphate
neodymium glass have been studied. Laser induced damage threshold dependences on the pulse duration for the range
of 1.5-20 ns for KGCC 0180 and K8 glasses are: e kgss = 16 x τ 1/2 I e K8 = 18 x τ 1/2 (J/cm 2 , when τ in nanoseconds). Damage
thresholds for the entrance and exit surfaces of KGSS 0180 glass samples have been measured when the samples were
irradiated by a P-polarized beam at Brewster's angle: e ent ≈ 48J/cm 2 ; e ex ≈ 31 J/cm 2 . It has also been found out that
the threshold energy density of the beam in case of Brewster's incidence to the exit surface of the sample is almost 1.5
times lower than in the case of a normal incidence. At the same time the relation is reverse for the entrance surface of
the glass KGSS 0180 sample with the same radiation polarization.
