Abstract

ABSTRACTThe effects of radiation damage on bulk laser-induced breakdown in Si02 were studied. Samples studied included Spectrasil A, B, and WF (water free). Measurements of laser-induced breakdown were conducted with 532 and 1064 nm laser pulses of approximately 30 nsec duration. Reductions of up to 50% in the laser-ind ced breakdown threshold were observed at 530 nm for samples exposed to 108 rads of γ-radiation.
