Laser-induced damage might result from a single, undetected defect. Incorporating automated defect detection into the manufacturing process allows for early identification and inline part rejection. By combining robust LIDT mapping, advanced defect detection, and tightly controlled production processes, manufacturers can produce optical components that meet the durability requirements of high-energy laser applications. This whitepaper demonstrates that combining OPTOMAN’s manufacturing rigor with DIOPTIC’s metrology expertise leads toward defect-minimized, high-LIDT optical components. This provides engineers and quality managers with the tools and insights needed to confidently specify and deploy reliable high-power laser optics.
