Morphologies and nonlinear scaling of laser damage on glass surfaces by tightly focused femtosecond pulses

Jeffrey F. Herbstman, Alan J. Hunt, and Steven M. Yalisove
We examine the relationship between pulse energy and the morphology of damage by a femtosecond pulsed laser, tightly focused onto the back surface of glass. For fluences up to three times that of threshold, an unexpected discontinuity in the scaling of damage size is caused by ejection of rings of m ... [Appl. Phys. Lett. 93, 011112 (2008)] published Fri Jul 11, 2008.
