Direct observation of the dynamics of picosecond-pulse optical breakdown
Description
The dynamics of electron avalanche breakdown induced by picosecond laser pulses were observed directly with an ultrafast streak camera. The ionization rate for fused quartz exposed to a 25-psec 532-nm pulse which produced a damaging breakdown is > or = 4.5 x 1012 sec-1
