| Abstract: | Comprehending the laser ablation mechanism is fundamental in determining how diverse laser parameters affect the quality of the ablation process. A finite difference model was developed in this study to investigate the ablation depth and temperature distribution in picosecond ablation process. The investigation involved conducting single-point laser experiments on bronze material using an ultrashort pulse laser with a pulse duration of 12 ps. The experiments were carried out with varying numbers of pulses, ranging from 1 to 80 pulses. The calculated depths of ablations were compared with experimental results. The variation of the ablation mechanism on the workpiece's surface during laser radiation was also investigated. The model established the laser-material interaction mechanisms under different incident pulses. The ionization temperature and ablated material temperature during laser processing are also determined. The results show that for the number of pulses higher than 10, the laser-material interaction changes from Multi-Photon Ionization to ablation, while in lower numbers, there are no effects of thermal damages adjacent to the laser points. The relationship between variations in the ablation depth and changes in the incidence angle was also investigated. As the incidence angle increases, the removal mechanism changes from MPI to the thermal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
