Abstract. The experimental data on Raman scattering (RS) and optical absorption in structures with thin silicon layers on various substrates, as well as in multilayer quartz/Si/SiO2 , SiC/Si/SiO2 and glass/Si3N4/Si/SiO2 structures, are summarized. It is shown that laser annealing on the above structures leads to changes in spectra of RS and optical transmission that can be explained within the critical action model. The value of critical action of laser radiation is determined for the structures studied.

Keywords: laser annealing, optical transmission, Raman scattering, thin silicon layers.
