Reducing nanoparticles in metal ablation plumes produced by two delayed short laser pulses - art. no. 053120

[摘要]：Using fast imaging and atomic force microscopy, we demonstrate that the fraction of nanoparticles in ablation plumes produced by short pulse laser irradiation of metals is strongly altered when a second laser pulse of sufficiently large delay is applied. Comparing the results obtained for gold and copper, it is shown that a significant nanoparticle reduction is only observed if the delay between both laser pulses exceeds the characteristic time of electron-lattice thermalization. We propose the reduced electronic heat transport at large lattice temperature as the dominant mechanisms for the observed nanoparticle reduction.
