Determination of ultra-short laser induced damage threshold of KH2PO4 crystal: Numerical calculation and experimental verification

Rapid growth and ultra-precision machining of large-size KDP (KH2PO4) crystals with high laser damage resistance are tough challenges in the development of large laser systems. It is of high interest and practical significance to have theoretical models for scientists and manufacturers to determine...
