Light is absorbed in optical media through several methods including exciting electrons to higher energy states and converting to thermal energy

Subsurface damage in optical components can lead to increased absorption and scatter, reducing system performance.

Inhomogeneity and scatter from inclusions and bubbles in optical components can lead to worse performance, especially in laser optics applications.

Dispersion is the dependence of the phase velocity or phase delay of light on another parameter, such as wavelength, propagation mode, or polarization.

Les systèmes optiques athermiques sont insensibles aux changements de température dans un environnement. Plus d'infos chez Edmund Optics.

The short pulse durations of ultrafast lasers make them interact with optical components differently, impacting the optic’s laser damage threshold.

Ces propriétés thermiques, notamment le CTE, le dn/dT et la conductivité thermique, sont essentielles pour prédire les performances réelles.

Laser induced damage threshold (LIDT) denotes the maximum laser fluence an optical component can withstand with an acceptable amount of risk.

The LIDT of continuous wave (CW) lasers is dependent on laser power, beam diameter, and other use parameters.
