The thermal accumulation effect is an important phenomenon for ultrafast laser material processing and was believed to happen only at high repetition rates over MHz. This study discovers that thermal accumulation can occur at low repetition rates in the kHz range in certain materials. It is found the threshold repetition rates required to initiate thermal accumulation are intrinsically determined by the thermal properties of the material and insensitive to ambient conditions. A simple analytical method is developed to predict the thermal accumulation threshold repetition rate, and the prediction agrees well with the experimental results.
