Abstract

The cracks and scratches inevitably generated by previous grinding and polishing significantly lower the ability of laser resistance of optical substrates. In this study, the artificial indentations, scratches, and structural defects imbedded with metal nanoparticles are fabricated. The laser-induced damage characteristics of such defects in different types and sizes are investigated qualitatively and quantitatively under 1064-nm laser irradiation. Moreover, the etching effect on improving the laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) of artificial defects under different etching conditions is analyzed. LIDT is then evaluated according to the etching depth and the morphologies of artificial defects.
