Abstract
An experimental investigation was made of the angular dependence of the laser damage threshold of thin metal films. It was found that in the case of the p polarization of the incident radiation there was a considerable reduction in the damage threshold of silver, copper, and aluminum films when the angles of incidence corresponded to efficient excitation of surface polaritons.
