The experimental treatment of chosen material with laser beams, starting from continuous wave up to fs pulses, produces the necessity to find the common and sophisticated theoretical approaches to interaction modeling. For chosen materials, some laser treatment and damage analyses are performed. The provoked stresses and parameters of transport processes (penetration depth) are calculated by using the programs for electrical circuit analyses. Some inconsistencies in the treatment of large area laser-material interaction are discussed.
Models of interactions of laser beams with materials of interest for optical components are presented in this paper. Special attention is paid to damages which appear within both active materials and optical components along the path of a propagating beam with theoretical treatment via various models.
