Noninvasive characterization methods for ultra-short laser pulse induced volume modifications
- We present two noninvasive characterization methods to investigate laser induced modifications in bulk fused silica glasses. The methods discussed are immersion microscopy and scanning acoustic microscopy (SAM). SAM shows merits in measuring the distance from sample surface to the first detectable density change of the modification, while immersion microscopy offers a look into the modification. Both noninvasive methods are preferred over conventional polishing or etching techniques due to the facts, that multiple investigations can be done with only one sample and lower time expenditure. The type II modifications were introduced by focusing laser pulses with high repetition rates into the fused silica.
