摘要
We present a theoretical model to describe the high-power nanosecond pulsed laser ablation of multielemental oxide superconductors by considering both the vaporization effect and the plasma shielding effect. Using as an example a YBa2Cu3O7 target, the numerical solutions are obtained by solving the heat flow equations using a finite difference method. We obtain the time dependence of temperature, the transmitted intensity and the ablation rate of the target. The numerical results agree well with the experimental data and are much better than without considering the effects of vaporization and plasma shielding, which indicates that the two effects in high-power nanosecond laser ablation of superconductors must not be neglected. The present model will be helpful for the investigation of superconducting thin films prepared by pulsed laser deposition. (C) 2007 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
