Picosecond Time-Resolved X-Ray Diffraction from Si(111) under High-Power Laser Irradiation

Picosecond time-resolved X-ray diffraction is used to observe Si(111) under 300 ps pulsed laser irradiation at a power density above the damage threshold. The pulsed X-rays (of about 9 ps pulse width) are generated by focusing a femtosecond laser on an Fe target. The rocking curves are obtained with...

Zusammenfassung:Picosecond time-resolved X-ray diffraction is used to observe Si(111) under 300 ps pulsed laser irradiation at a power density above the damage threshold. The pulsed X-rays (of about 9 ps pulse width) are generated by focusing a femtosecond laser on an Fe target. The rocking curves are obtained with a time step of 50 ps. The transient lattice compression (0.9% at maximum) driven by laser-induced dielectric breakdown is directly observed.
