Abstract
Competition between two processes, ablation and transition to a viscoe lastic state, during the action of laser radiation on a polymer is con sidered. It is shown how the relationship between the energy threshold s of these two processes affects the quality of the polymer surface af ter laser irradiation. Theoretical estimates are compared with experim ental results.
