Laser-heated boundary of transparent and absorbing materials

Journal of Russian Laser Research Aims and scope

Abstract

Temperature profiles near the boundary of an absorbing and a transparent media under laser heating of the absorbing medium, which is in contact with the transparent medium, are calculated. An exact solution for the heat conductivity equations with constant coefficients for rectangular laser pulses is obtained. The results of calculations are presented as a family of curves with dimensionless parameters which are used to recover the temperature-distribution profiles near the interface of any pair of materials, one of which is transparent for laser emission. As an example, laser heating of a graphite-diamond interface is considered.
