Custom LIDT test
is non standard LIDT test procedure.

is designed to provide the maximum information about Laser-Induced Damage Threshold (LIDT) in specific cases.

Basics

Laser-Induced Damage Threshold is sensitive to the sample exposure conditions, material properties, and environment. It is also sensitive to the test method. In some cases, standard ISO tests and commonly known non-standard tests are insufficient to answer particular questions. The Custom LIDT test is designed to provide the maximum information about the optical resistance of your component. Firstly, the needs are discussed with the customer. Then standard test methods are adjusted to meet specific requirements.

Use this test when you need:

• Custom irradiation conditions (for example: very large number of incident pulses (>1000 per site) or very large/very small (micro-focus) laser test beam diameter.
• Custom exposure algorithm.
• Custom test site layout.
• Custom damage interpretation.
• Custom analysis.

Be aware:

Custom tests are might be more expensive and have longer lead times. Not all custom tests can be compared with standard tests.
