The Temperature Field Caused by Sphere Inclusion in Dielectric Irradiated by Single Pulse Laser

Abstract:

The thermal effect arisen from absorbing inclusions is the main factor which causes the damage of optical materials or component irradiated by the longer pulse duration laser. The unsteady heat conduction depends markedly on both the thermal properties of inclusions and the parameters of laser. Based on the differential equation of heat conduction, the temperature distribution caused by single absorbing inclusion is solved by use of finite difference method. The effect of the laser intensity and the pulse duration on temperature field is analyzed in detail. The result demonstrates that the smaller size inclusion and the smaller pulse duration cause relative safe thermal effect, consequently, the less probability to be damaged by thermal effect.
