  Abstract.     
Analyzed  on  the  example  of  CdTe  are  formation  and  propagation  of  shock 
waves  during  pulsed  laser  irradiation  of  a  solid  surface. It  is  shown  that  before  the 
appearance of a shock wave in a solid, a gradual increase in pressure gradient leads to 
formation of dislocations, density of which increases with depth. The dislocation density 
is maximum at the place of shock wave formation.
 Keywords:    pulsed laser irradiation, CdTe, dislocation density.
