[0002] The development of high-power laser system and large optical system puts forward more stringent requirements on the stability of optical elements, imaging quality, coating quality and laser damage threshold and other performance indicators, and the subsurface damage of element can greatly reduce these performance indicators. Therefore, it is particularly important to detect the subsurface damage of the element. Common subsurface detection methods include destructive detection methods such as cross-section microscopy, angle polishing method, HF chemical etching method, and non-destructive detection methods such as fluorescence microscopy, polarized laser scattering method, confocal laser scanning microscopy. The destructive detection method will cause irreversible damage to the material, and the sample preparation is troublesome, time-consuming and low in precision; non-destructive detection methods use acoustic, optical and other imaging technologies, and have the characteristics of fast, non-destructive, high precision, etc., so they are widely used in subsurface damage measurement.
[0003] However, in the current non-destructive detection method of subsurface, there are problems such as the accuracy of the value cannot be guaranteed, and the value is difficult to trace.
