DIN EN ISO 21254-2:2011-10 EN ISO 21254-2:2011 (E) 3Introduction This part of ISO 21254 specifies test methods for determining single-shot and multiple-shot laser-induced damage thresholds (LIDTs) of optical components, both coat

24、ed and uncoated. The aim is to provide methods which will enable measurement results to be obtained which are consistent and can be rapidly and accurately compared between different test laboratories. In the single-shot test, which is referred to as the 1-on-1 test in this International Standard, ea

25、ch unexposed site on the sample surface is subjected to only one pulse of laser radiation. Repeated laser radiation pulses can damage optical components, or otherwise cause them to deteriorate, at irradiation levels below those measured for single-shot damage. Besides reversible effects induced by t

26、hermal heating and distortion, irreversible damage due to ageing, microdamage and the generation or migration of defects is observed. The degradation of the optical quality is a function of the laser operating parameters and the optical system in which the component is located. The multiple-shot tes

27、t, referred to as the S-on-1 test, is based on a protocol that uses a series of pulses with constant energy density at each unexposed test site. In addition to an evaluation technique based on the survival curve for 1-on-1 tests, this part of ISO 21254 also describes two methods for the reduction of

28、 raw data obtained from S-on-1 damage tests: one using the characteristic damage curve and the other an extrapolation technique. The characteristic damage curve method calls for S-on-1 testing at a large number of sites on the optical surface of the specimen and generation of a set of three graphs i

29、ndicating energy density values corresponding to probabilities of damage of 10 %, 50 % and 90 % for a selected number of pulses. The characteristic damage curve represents the results of a complete and extended laser-induced damage test, and it is recommended for basic investigations in newly develo

30、ped or critical laser optics. The second method of S-on-1 testing, the extrapolation method, uses a considerably smaller number of test sites. This method generates a distribution diagram of the damaged and undamaged regions for the behaviour of the damage threshold as a function of the number of pu

31、lses per site. This diagram is of limited reliability but may be employed for the quality control of optical laser components which have already been qualified by a complete damage test or as part of the preparation for extended damage testing. Realistic laser damage tests suitable for industrial ap

32、plications require a large number of pulses (109to 1011pulses) and hence involve a disproportionate experimental cost. This part of ISO 21254 therefore also outlines a procedure for obtaining the S-on-1 threshold by extrapolation of the characteristic damage curve in order to estimate the real lifet

33、ime of an optical component. NOTE It should be realized that the laser-induced damage threshold of an optical component which is subjected to repeated pulses of radiation can be affected by a variety of different degradation mechanisms, including contamination, thermal heating, migration or generati

34、on of internal defects, and structural changes. These mechanisms are influenced by the laser operating parameters, the environment and the component mounting conditions. For these reasons, it is necessary to record all the parameters and to bear in mind that the damage behaviour might differ in test

35、s carried out in different operating conditions. The test procedures described in this part of ISO 21254 are applicable to all combinations of laser wavelengths and pulse lengths. However, comparison of laser damage threshold data can be misleading unless the measurements have been carried out at th

36、e same wavelength, using the same pulse length and beam diameter. Definitions and the general principles of laser-induced damage threshold measurements are given in ISO 21254-1. DIN EN ISO 21254-2:2011-10 EN ISO 21254-2:2011 (E) 4WARNING The extrapolation of damage data can lead to an overestimation

37、 of the laser-induced damage threshold. In the case of toxic materials (e.g. ZnSe, GaAs, CdTe, ThF4, chalcogenides, Be, Cr, Ni), this can lead to serious health hazards. See ISO 21254-1:2011, Annex A, for further comments. 1 Scope This part of ISO 21254 describes 1-on-1 and S-on-1 tests for the dete

38、rmination of the laser-induced damage threshold of optical laser components. It is applicable to all types of laser and all operating conditions. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

41、 sampling techniques used, are described in ISO 21254-1. 4.2 1-on-1 test method 4.2.1 General In the 1-on-1 test, each unexposed site on the surface of the sample is exposed to a single laser pulse with defined beam parameters. From the experimental data, a plot depicting the probability of damage a

42、s a function of the energy density or power density is constructed. DIN EN ISO 21254-2:2011-10 EN ISO 21254-2:2011 (E) 54.2.2 Test parameters The test equipment shall be characterized by the parameters described in ISO 21254-1:2011, 6.2.6.5. 4.2.3 Procedure Test sites are positioned in the beam and

43、irradiated by single shots of laser radiation with different energy densities or power densities. Expose a minimum of ten sites to one preselected pulse energy (or beam power) and record, for each site, the actual pulse energy (or beam power) measured by the beam diagnostic unit as well as the state

44、 of damage after irradiation (damage or no damage). Repeat this sequence for other pulse energies or beam powers. The range of pulse energies or beam powers employed shall be sufficiently broad to include low values which result in no damage at any site and sufficiently high values which induce dama

45、ge at each site tested. 4.2.4 Evaluation of measurements Damage threshold data are obtained by the damage-probability method. To construct a plot of the probability of damage versus the quantity in terms of which the laser-induced damage threshold is to be expressed, the probability of damage is det

46、ermined for each energy-density or power-density increment by calculating the ratio of the number of damaged sites to the total number of sites tested. Linear extrapolation of the damage-probability data to zero damage probability yields the threshold value. An example is shown in Figure 1. Key X en
