Femtosecond vs. Nanosecond

Laser Damage Thresholds

Join us for a discussion about how laser damage threshold (LDT) is affected by laser pulse duration
and how to ensure your laser optics are specified properly.

Not All Pulses Are Created Equal

We invite you to attend this 60-minute webinar presented by Dr. Matthew Dabney, Principal R&D Engineer at Edmund Optics®, and Dr. Mathias Mende, Senior Optical Coating Designer at Edmund Optics®.

Join this event to learn the differences between the laser damage thresholds for femtosecond and nanosecond laser pulse durations.

At the end of this webinar, attendees will have a strong understanding of:

  • Applications in which each laser technology is preferable
  • Different mechanisms for generating laser-induced damage at each pulse duration regime
  • When and when not to scale laser damage thresholds across different parameters
 

Meet the Presenter
Dr. Matthew Dabney

Dr. Matthew Dabney

Principal Laser Engineer

He has over 30 years of experience researching how lasers interact with materials. He also fabricated and qualified most of the optics on the Hubble Telescope. Matthew joined Edmund Optics in 2019 and has established a laser lab to research the laser damage threshold (LDT) of various materials. He has published over 30 scientific papers on topics ranging from pulsed laser deposition of novel transparent conducting oxides, laser nucleation and growth of silicon, the safe use of Class 4 lasers in industrial settings, and developing a robust LDT testbed. Matthew holds a master's and PhD degree in materials science from Colorado School of Mines.
