Which risk increases when pulsed-laser ablation heats ceramic?

💡 Explanation

Thermal stress cracking increases because rapid local heating during pulsed-laser ablation induces differential expansion exceeding the material's fracture strength due to increased *thermomechanical coupling*; therefore cracking appears, rather than excess reflection because the energy is primarily absorbed.
