Abstract

The absorption layer on the metal surface absorbs the laser energy and explodes and evaporates, producing plasma with high temperature (>10000 K) and high pressure (>1 GPa) when the laser with short pulse (several to tens of nanoseconds) peak power density (>GW/cm2) radiates the metal target.
