This work pioneers the atomistic modeling of the shock wave in picosecond laser-material interaction by simulating the material that is irradiated with a picosecond laser pulse (11.3 ps FWHM) in a 0.25 MPa background gas. The dynamic structure and mutual mass penetration between the plume and background gas are investigated in detail. In the shock wave the compressed ambient gas region has a very uniform temperature distribution while the temperature decreases from the front of the plume to its end. The group velocity of atoms in the shock wave front is much smaller than the shock wave propagation speed and experiences a fast decay due to momentum exchange with the ambient gas. Strong decay of the shock wave front temperature and pressure is observed while its density features much slower attenuation. An effective mixing length is designed to quantitatively evaluate the mutual mass penetration between the plume and background gas. This effective mixing length grows at a rate of ∼ 60 m/s. This fast mixing/mass penetration is largely due to the strong relative movement between the plume and the background gas. The MD results agree well with the analytical solution in terms of relating various shock wave strengths.

AbstractUnderstanding the laser ablation mechanism is highly essential to find the effect of different laser parameters on the quality of the laser ablation. A mathematical model was developed in the current investigation to calculate the material removal rate and ablation depth. Laser cuts were created on the workpiece with different laser scan speeds from 1 to 10 mm s−1 by an ultrashort pulse laser with a wavelength of about 1000 nm. The calculated depths of laser cuts were validated via practical experiments. The variation of the laser power intensity on the workpiece’s surface during laser radiation was also calculated. The mathematical model has determined the laser-material interaction mechanism for different laser intensities. The practical sublimation temperature and ablated material temperature during laser processing are other data that the model calculates. The results show that in laser power intensities (IL) higher than 1.5 × 109 W cm−2, the laser-material interaction is multiphoton ionisation with no effects of thermal reaction, while in lower values of IL, there are effects of thermal damages and HAZ adjacent to the laser cut. The angle of incidence is an essential factor in altering incident IL on the surface of the workpiece during laser processing, which changes with increasing depth of the laser cut.

Nano-patterns are generated on semiconducting and metallic surfaces through coupling an apertured near field scanning optical microscope (NSOM) with a pulsed laser source in this study. To understand the dominant mechanisms for the generation of the nano-patterns, a series of experimental measurement of the size and shape of nano-patterns generated on targets under different experimental conditions with different targets is conducted. The characteristic dimensions of nano-patterns show dependence on optical properties of the target material. The qualitative trend of the variation of nano-patterns as a function of laser and material conditions indicates that the dominant mechanisms for the generation of nano-patterns through a combination of nanosecond laser and an apertured NSOM under different conditions studied is near field laser-material interaction.
