Abstract

Optical subsurface damage (SSD), generated from traditional grinding and polishing process, is prone to lower the laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) of optical elements. Due to the fact that SSD elimination is on the premise of SSD evaluation, numerous SSD characterizing techniques have been proposed in the past few decades. In this paper, various SSD evaluations based on chemical etching technique are described and compared.
