Research on temperature field characteristics of optical films under 1064 nm short-pulse laser radiation

The 3-D temperature field distribution (TFD) equation of optical films (OFs) was analyzed, based on the film temperature field distribution (FTFD) model irradiated by Gaussian short-pulse laser, and short-pulse laser-induced temperature field distribution of TiO2/SiO2 composite membranes on K9 glasses was obtained by means of numerical simulation. The results show that the thermal effect of optical films is very obvious under the Gaussian short-pulse laser. Temperature at the center of the spot rises faster than in other areas, and it decreases along the radius rapidly. It provides theoretical basis for progress analysis of short-pulse laser acting on optical films.
