This paper reports on efforts to correlate two commercially oriented laser damage tests. The two test facilities are located at Hughes Aircraft Co. and Montana Laser Optics*. A variety of coated laser optics have been tested in different test conditions and the damage levels compared. The test parameters varied were transverse modal content, spot size, sample conditioning history and, to a lesser degree, pulse width. The accumulated results were correlated by ascertaining the existence of a high probability functional relationship (linear fit) between pairs of damage levels for the same optics in different test conditions. A strong correlation was found between samples tested with the same irradiance history, regardless of the modal content and pulse width. Comparisons of the samples of different irradiance conditioning history were found not to correlate in general.
本文报道了关联两项面向商业应用的激光损伤测试的工作。这两个测试设施分别位于休斯飞机公司和蒙大拿激光光学公司*。多种镀膜激光光学元件在不同测试条件下进行了测试，并对损伤水平进行了比较。变化的测试参数包括横向模态含量、光斑尺寸、样品预处理历史，以及在较小程度上的脉冲宽度。通过确定在不同测试条件下相同光学元件的损伤水平对之间是否存在高概率函数关系（线性拟合），对累积结果进行了关联。结果发现，无论模态含量和脉冲宽度如何，具有相同辐照历史的测试样品之间存在很强的相关性。一般来说，不同辐照预处理历史的样品之间的比较没有相关性。
