Application of photothermal probe beam deflection technique for ablation and damage measurements by using short UV - laser pulses
نویسندگان
چکیده
For application in UV-material processing and UV-thin-film optics, the thermal contribution to damage and ablation phenomena will be investigated utilizing time resolved photothermal probe beam deflection (MIRAGE) technique. The potentiality of this method for the determination of both the sub-damage range and the Onset of damage, as well as the ablation threshold by using the thermal branch of MIRAGE technique will be demonstrated.

Ultrafast stress pulse detection by laser beam deflection
We describe a direct method for the detection of optically excited ultrashort stress pulses in thin films using a time-resolved pump and probe scheme. Changes in the surface profile are monitored by the angular deflection of a probe beam. Application to the detection of interfacial layers is also demonstrated. The time-resolved detection of high frequency phonons excited by picosecond or femtos...

متن کاملExplosion of a liquid film in contact with a pulse-heated solid surface detected by the probe-beam deflection method.
The threshold for explosive vaporization of a liquid layer on an opaque solid surface heated by an ultraviolet excimer pulsed laser is studied by a photoacoustic probe-beam deflection method. The probe beam traverses the liquid in the vicinity of the laser-heated liquid-solid interface. Below the explosion threshold, photoacoustic generation in the solid occurs only through a thermoelastic mech...
