Ultrashort laser ablation enables novel metal films

Tuesday, September 21, 2010 - 10:14 in Physics & Chemistry

Laser ablation is well known in medical applications like dermatology and dentistry, and for more than a decade it has been used to vaporize materials that are difficult to evaporate for high-tech applications like the deposition of superconductors. Now researchers have studied the properties of femtosecond laser ablation plumes to better understand how to apply them to specialized films.
