Mechanisms of Ablation and Ion Formation in Infrared Laser Mass Spectrometry

The studies described in this work take advantage of a unique infrared light source that allowed the exploration of previously uninvestigated vibrational modes and excitation densities, plus other laser systems that allowed us to compare the importance of pulse duration and electronic excitation in...
