This book provides the most complete and authoritative overview of the laser damage field, covering damage in the bulk as well as on the surface and coating of optical components. Its treatment spans from fundamental mechanisms and techniques to damage in optical materials and thin films. It discusses state-of-the-art measurement approaches for evaluating laser damage thresholds in the context of international standards and scaling laws. It also covers high-power laser coatings, modeling approaches, laser heating phenomena in different optical materials, and effects of contamination.

Detlev Ristau completed his study of physics at the University of Hannover in 1982 and was awarded a scholarship at Rice University in Houston, Texas. He returned to Germany in 1983 and received his PhD at the University of Hannover in 1988. He is presently the director of the Department of Laser Components at the Laser Zentrum Hannover. After receiving a state doctorate in 2008, he was appointed professor for applied physics at the Leibniz University in Hannover in 2010. Professor Ristau is the author or coauthor of more than 300 technical papers and has published several book chapters.
