Time of flight measurement of femtosecond ablation of graphite
Motivation: mechanism(s) in femtosecond laser ablation ?
TOFProducts ONLY
from surface ?
TOF Products from
surface + fragmentation ?
Thermal (equilibrium)
or/and
coulomb explosion (non equilibrium)?

Summary
• fragmentation process involved in the ablation of the graphite with femtosecond laser pulse.
• need to find what is the rate thermal vaporization / Coulomb explosion VUV probe
• VUV, XUV will allow time-resolved photoelectron emission
