Laser ablation of dielectrics by ultrashort laser pulses is reviewed. The basic interaction
between ultrashort light pulses and the dielectric material is described, and different …

This review concerns nanoparticles collected in the form of nanopowder or a colloidal
solution by laser ablating a solid target that lies in a gaseous or a liquid environment. The …

We present the advances in x-ray femtosecond pulse generation and the most recent
discoveries in the field of ultrashort (femtosecond) x-ray science. Nowadays x-rays show …

Short-pulse laser ablation is promising owing to the low threshold for material removal from
surfaces. In the laser-ablation process, solid material transforms into a volatile phase …

The basis for the anomalies of water is still mysterious. Quite generally tetrahedrally
coordinated systems, also silicon, show similar thermodynamic behavior but lack—like water …

We demonstrate that femtosecond laser ablation of silicon targets in vacuum is a viable
route to the generation and deposition of nanoparticles with radii of 5–10 nm. The …

Femtosecond laser ablation in solution (FLAS) is a unique and simple technique addressing
the drawbacks of the conventional methods giving access to preparation of an ultra-broad …

The main features of ultra-short laser ablation of various materials (metals, semiconductors
or insulators) have been studied through the complementary analyses of the plasma plume …

We have performed core level photoelectron spectroscopy on a W (110) single crystal with
femtosecond XUV pulses from the free-electron laser at Hamburg (FLASH). We demonstrate …

This two-volume work covers ultrafast structural and electronic dynamics of elementary
processes at solid surfaces and interfaces, presenting the current status of photoinduced …
