Abstract

The efficiency of Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) process is related to the ability to control the ablation plume characteristics such as composition, excitation and kinetic properties of species [1] or generation of nanoparticles [2]. In particular, the understanding and the control of processes such as thin films formation as well as nanoparticles generation subsequent to femtosecond laser irradiation are very promising topics in terms of fundamental research and technological applications.
