Full title and description

ISO 10110-17:2004 — Optics and photonics — Preparation of drawings for optical elements and systems — Part 17: Laser irradiation damage threshold. This part defines how to indicate on technical drawings the laser-irradiation damage threshold for optical surfaces (the level of laser irradiation up to which a surface shall not exhibit damage, as defined in ISO 11254-1).

Abstract

ISO 10110-17:2004 specifies rules for presenting the damage threshold from laser irradiation as part of the presentation of design and functional requirements for optical elements and systems in technical drawings used for manufacturing and inspection. It references ISO 11254-1 for the definition of “damage” and gives formats and examples for indicating threshold values (pulsed and continuous-wave cases) and associated parameters such as wavelength and effective pulse duration.

Scope

This part of ISO 10110 specifies the notation and rules for indicating laser-irradiation damage thresholds on drawings of optical elements and systems. It covers the form of the indication (units and parameters), distinctions between pulsed and long-pulse / CW irradiation, the connection of the indication to the relevant surface on the drawing (leader lines or table entries), and normative references needed to interpret the threshold definition (notably ISO 11254-1). The standard is intended purely as a presentation/specification aid for drawings rather than as a test method.

Key topics and requirements

• Definition and reference to the damage criterion as set out in ISO 11254-1 (laser-induced damage).
• Indication formats for pulsed irradiation (energy density Hth or Eth with wavelength and effective pulse duration) and for long-pulse/CW irradiation (linear power or power density Fth with wavelength and exposure time).
• Requirement to give units when indicating thresholds (e.g., J·cm−2, kW·cm−1, etc.).
• Rules for locating the indication on the drawing (leader line to the affected surface or entry in the element-data table per ISO 10110-10).
• Normative and referenced documents within the ISO 10110 series that relate to presentation of surface data and tolerancing (other parts of ISO 10110).

Typical use and users

Used by optical engineers, lens designers, drafting engineers, manufacturing and quality-control teams, laser-system designers, procurement/specification authors, and test laboratories to record and communicate required laser-damage performance on technical drawings and procurement documents. It provides a standardized way to transfer laser-damage requirements from design to manufacture and test.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: ISO 10110-17:2004 is the part of the ISO 10110 series that specifies how to indicate laser-irradiation damage thresholds for optical surfaces on technical drawings.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers the presentation rules for writing the damage threshold (units and parameters), distinguishes formats for pulsed versus long-pulse/CW irradiation, states how to place the indication on the drawing or in element tables, and refers to ISO 11254-1 for the definition of “damage.” It does not itself prescribe test methods.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Optical designers, drawing/drafting engineers, manufacturing and QA personnel, laser-system developers, procurement/spec writers and test labs use this part to record and communicate laser-damage requirements on drawings and specification sheets.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: The document was published in March 2004 (Edition 1). According to the ISO catalogue entry it was reviewed and confirmed (i.e., remained current) during ISO’s systematic review process, most recently confirmed in 2022, so the 2004 edition remains the current edition. Users should check the ISO catalogue or national body for any later amendments or replacements before relying on the text.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: Yes — ISO 10110 is a multipart series covering the preparation of drawings for optical elements and systems; Part 17 is one element of that series dealing specifically with laser-irradiation damage threshold notation. Other parts address surface form, imperfections, coatings, aspheres, data tables, etc.

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: laser damage threshold; ISO 10110; optical drawings; J/cm²; power density; wavelength; pulse duration; ISO 11254-1.
