Abstract :
In this paper, it is suggested to use pulsed laser radiation to define adhesion of thin metallic films to the substrate and surface defects detection. The preliminary experimental data on Xe- and XeCl-lasers interaction with thin films of metals deposited on glass using technology of vacuum-arc evaporation are presented in the paper. Threshold laser radiation power densities necessary for film detachment from the substrate are determined. Thus, a possibility of testing of thin film adhesion by focused pulsed laser irradiation with known power distribution over cross-section has been demonstrated.
