Abstract: This paper analyzes the interaction process of laser beam and MOS CCD devices,and investigates the damage thresholds of CCD devices.In the experimental study,using a Q-switched YAG laser to irradiate a CCD device,the heat melting threshold,optical breaking threshold and direct damaging threshold of CCD are mea-sured,and the laser energy threshold causing whole CCD device failure is measured too.
