Formation of carbon structures upon decomposition of organic molecules on the surface of a dielectric under the action of IR femtosecond laser radiation

The formation of carbon structures as a result of decomposition of some organic molecules on the surface of metal fluorides (without molecular decay in a gas) exposed to IR femtosecond laser radiation with a wavelength of 3.3-5.4 μm is revealed. The determining influence of the laser pulse intensity...

Description
Summary:The formation of carbon structures as a result of decomposition of some organic molecules on the surface of metal fluorides (without molecular decay in a gas) exposed to IR femtosecond laser radiation with a wavelength of 3.3-5.4 μm is revealed. The determining influence of the laser pulse intensity on the efficiency of the decomposition process has been ascertained. A possible mechanism of the decomposition of molecules on the surface and of the growth of carbon structures has been proposed.
