Times Cited Count：3 Percentile：14.8(Physics, Applied)We used laser-induced fluorescence imaging with a varying beam focal point to observe ablation plumes from metal and oxide samples of gadolinium. The plumes expand vertically when the focal point is far from the sample surface. In contrast, the plume becomes hemispherical when the focal point is on the sample surface. In addition, the internal plume structure and the composition of the ablated atomic and ionic particles also vary significantly. The fluorescence intensity of a plume from a metal sample is greater than that from an oxide sample, which suggests that the number of monatomic species produced in each plume differs. For both the metal and oxide samples, the most intense fluorescence from atomic (ionic) species is observed with the beam focal point at 3-4 mm (2 mm) from the sample surface.

Ablation plume of oxide samples of gadolinium was observed by means of laser-induced fluorescence imaging technique for varying the beam focal point. The observed plume was vertically expanded when the focal point was far from the sample surface; in contrast, it varied to be hemispherical shape when the focal point was on the sample surface. In addition, the internal plume structure and the composition of the ablated atomic and ionic species were also varied significantly.
