| Summary: | The basic concept of pulsed laser ablation lies in the laser-matter interactions and phenomena related to the materials removal. While the former concern with the photo-induced ablation mechanisms, the latter are often related to the propagation behavior of the photo-ablated materials, which is generally known as the plume. The plume can be collected on a substrate, hence giving rise to the pulsed laser deposition technique which is widely used for preparation of many types of thin-film materials. These thin films, however, often contain commonly-known particulates (for example, droplets) of size ranging from nanometer (nm) to micrometer (mm). |
