Up today laser damage performance of optical components is mainly a defect related material characteristic. Metrology procedures have been developed to realize repeatable and accurate measurements of surface damage density due to nanosecond pulses. These measurement techniques were used to guide the improvement of surface damage resistance. Fractures must be eliminated from surfaces, in order not to suffer a damage growth phenomenon, whose exponential character will reduce the optical lifetime. High intensity hot spots due to beam modulations, spatial and/or temporal modulations, can also cause surface damage. Specific set-ups and experiments were carried out that allowed us to analyze and explain these phenomena: damage initiation mechanisms, damage growth and beam propagation inside the optical components. The presentation aims to highlight relevant progress on these topics (1) initiation mechanisms due to defects show two phases: a first incubation phase followed by the expansion one of the damage site ; it appears also that damage diameters are well correlated with the expansion fluence, (2) a refined bulk observation coupled to a fractal analysis allow the quantification of bulk damage and therefore to explain the laser damage growth and its dependence on beam parameters like pulse length and fluence (3) non-linear amplification of phase and amplitude modulations lead to the amplification of the spatial pre-existing small scale modulations that increase the laser energy density locally and finally the number of damage sites. The whole of results, damage initiation, damage growth and beam propagation, is discussed to the light of the laser damage observed on LMJ optics.","PeriodicalId":197837,"journal":{"name":"SPIE/SIOM Pacific Rim Laser Damage","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130249216","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we propose a standing semiconductor-dielectric core-shell nanocone array (CSNCA). We find that the CSNCA structure can not only concentrate the incident light into the structure, but also confine most of the concentrated light to the semiconductor (InP) core region, which enhances remarkably the light absorption of the more material-saving semiconductor core. Thanks to the gradient of diameter size along the axial in cone, incident light of different wavelengths can be maximally coupled into the core. We find guided resonance features along the radial and FP-resonant features along the axial by analyzing the electric field patterns at the absorption spectrum peaks. The CSNCA can support multiple higherorder HE modes, in comparison to the bare nanocone array (BNCA). Interaction of the adjacent higher-order HE modes results in broadband light absorption enhancement in the solar radiation spectrum. Carrier generation rates (G) have also been studied when the electrical part is discussed. CSNCAs show a unique advantage in G distribution. Results based on detailed balance analysis demonstrate that the core-shell design gives rise to higher short-circuit current and open-circuit voltage, and thus higher power conversion efficiency. This advantage is more apparent in thin structures compared with the thick ones. Detailed research is focused on the 1 μm high CSNCAs, and a remarkable enhancement (42.2%) is gained compared with the BNCAs. Our study shows that the CSNCAs can be promising candidates for application in super miniature photodetectors, nanometer power sources and ultra-thin film solar cells.","PeriodicalId":197837,"journal":{"name":"SPIE/SIOM Pacific Rim Laser Damage","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134079589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

And it is well established that the evolution of defect bound excitons in twodimensional semiconducting TMDs brings largely unexplored opportunities for tailoring their optoelectronic properties. Yet thus far, the properties of defect bound excitons of TMDs have been rarely investigated. In this work, the intrinsic properties of defect bound excitons in aged CVD-grown monolayer WS2 are experimentally studied by the steady-state photoluminescence measurement. Specifically, the photoluminescence mapping experiment is conducted to demonstrate the spatial distribution of the defect bound excitons, whose spectral feature is located ~0.2 eV below the neutral free Aexcitons. Additionally, the power-dependent photoluminescence experiment is applied to investigate the behavior of the defect-state photoluminescence and a significant nonlinear dependence of defect bound excitons on excitation power is revealed. Furthermore, we directly observed the disappearance of defect-state photoluminescence by exposing sample to high laser power irradiation, which can be explained by the enhanced desorption process of molecules physiosorbed on surfaces under laser irradiation. The results of our work provide a comprehensive understanding for the defect bound excitons in monolayer tungsten disulfide, which is essential in promoting the development of defect engineering about two-dimensional semiconducting TMDs and may pave the way for tailoring the performance of the optoelectronic device.","PeriodicalId":197837,"journal":{"name":"SPIE/SIOM Pacific Rim Laser Damage","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122212013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
