This paper reviews a new field of direct femtosecond laser surface nano/microstructuring
and its applications. Over the past few years, direct femtosecond laser surface processing …

Laser ablation of dielectrics by ultrashort laser pulses is reviewed. The basic interaction
between ultrashort light pulses and the dielectric material is described, and different …

The microscopic mechanisms of femtosecond laser ablation of an Al target are investigated
in large-scale massively parallel atomistic simulations performed with a computational …

Femtosecond fiber lasers have revolutionized the industry of laser technology by providing
ultrashort pulses of high brightness through compact, affordable, and reliable setups. In this …

By extending molecular-dynamics simulation to the experimental micrometer length scale,
we observed the complete dynamics of gold films subjected to ultrashort (≲ 1 ps) laser …

A simplified two-temperature model coupling molecular dynamics (TTM-MD) method is
proposed to study the femtosecond laser ablation of metal, which can simulate a micron …

The main features of ultra-short laser ablation of various materials (metals, semiconductors
or insulators) have been studied through the complementary analyses of the plasma plume …

The theory and experiments concerned with the electron–ion thermal relaxation and melting
of overheated crystal lattice constitute the subject of this paper. The physical model includes …

The interaction between light and matter during laser machining is particularly challenging
to model via analytical approaches. Here, we show the application of a statistical approach …

Laser machining can depend on the combination of many complex and nonlinear physical
processes. Simulations of laser machining that are built from first-principles, such as the …
