Multilayer structure of ablation plume of standard geological sample irradiated by Nd:YAG nanosecond laser using shadowgraph technology
2019
The ablation dynamics of a standard geological sample induced using a nanosecond laser was recorded using a high time-resolved pump-probe shadowgraph. During the early shock wave formation, multiple asymmetric spikes within one laser pulse result in multiple shock waves which swell and fuse. Observations of the multilayer structure inside the ablation plume showed that the intensity of the plasma luminescence gradually decreased with an increase in the delay time. The ablation plume perturbs the air at supersonic speed, forming shock waves with compressible discontinuity sweeping through the gas, changing its pressure, density, and fluid velocity. Based on the classic Riemannian problem, a theoretical model was used to simulate the dynamics of the pressure, velocity, and density inside the ablation plume. The Taylor–Sedov theory was used to deduce the transient velocity, pressure, and temperature of the shock wave. The radius, velocity, pressure, and temperature of the shock wave reach 587.4 μm, 2852.9 m/...
