The Full Story
Laser Ablation
Laser ablation or photoablation is the process of removing material from a solid (or occasionally liquid) 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. At high laser flux, the material is typically converted to a plasma.
How Laser Ablation works
Laser cleaning sends pulses of laser light towards a surface. When it meets with contaminants on a substrate, the contaminants absorb laser light and will either turn into a gas or the pressure of the interaction will cause particles to detach from the substrate.
