Laser ablation in liquid-phase (LAL) has been developed since the 1990s, but the interest in
laser synthesis of colloids has emerged in the last decade due to a significant improvement …

Short and ultrashort pulse lasers offer excellent advantages in laser precision machining
mainly because of their high pulse energy and low ablation threshold. The complex process …

This review is devoted to the study of ultrafast laser ablation of solids and liquids. The
ablation of condensed matter under exposure to subpicosecond laser pulses has a number …

This book is on inertial confinement fusion, an alternative way to produce electrical power
from hydrogen fuel by using powerful lasers or particle beams. It involves the compression of …

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 …

A brief review is given regarding ultrafast laser micromachining of materials. Some general
experimental observations are first provided to show the characteristics of ultrafast laser …

The microscopic mechanisms of femtosecond laser ablation of an Al target are investigated
in large-scale massively parallel atomistic simulations performed with a computational …

The mechanism of ablation of solids by intense femtosecond laser pulses is described in an
explicit analytical form. It is shown that at high intensities when the ionization of the target …

We present an experimental and numerical study of the damage and ablation thresholds at
the surface of a dielectric material, eg, fused silica, using short pulses ranging from 7 to 300 …

The Interaction of High-Power Lasers with Plasmas provides a thorough self-contained
discussion of the physical processes occurring in laser-plasma interactions, including a …
