A two dimensional instationary analysis of the conjugate optical-thermal fields induced in a multilayer thin film structure on a glass substrate by a moving Gaussian laser source is carried out numerically in order to compare back and front laser treatment processes.

COMSOL Multiphysics 3.4 code has been adopted to solve the combined thermal and electromagnetic problem in order to compare the two processes. The optical field is considered locally one dimensional and Maxwell equations are solved in order to evaluate the absorption in thin film. Results are presented in terms of transient temperature profiles and fields for different Peclet numbers.
