Laser Damage Threshold (LDT), also known as Laser Induced Damage Threshold (LIDT), is one of the most important specifications to consider when integrating an optical component into a laser application. The type of damage induced to an optical component by a laser beam is dependent on its wavelength, pulse length, polarization, repetition rate, and spatial characteristics, among other factors. The failure mechanism of the optic is related to either the substrate or coating.
