Question

Difference between laser ablation and laser deposition

Answer 1

Hey.

Laser ablation is the process of removing material from a solid surface by irradiating it with a laser beam. At low laser flux, the material is heated by the absorbed laser energy and evaporates or sublimates.

Pulsed laser deposition is a technique where a pulsed laser beam is focused inside a vacuum chamber to strike a target of the material that is to be deposited.
This material is ablated from the target, forms a plasma plume, and subsequently deposits as a thin film on a substrate.

Thanks.
