Description
A laser driven flyer was used to produce shocks in salt crystals and polymer films coated on stainless-steel substrates. Ions produced by the shock interaction were collected and analyzed by a time-of-flight mass spectrometer. Experiments examining shocked inorganic salts produced simple spectra. The spectra indicated the breaking of both ionic and covalent bonds in the shocked salts. Experiments examining shocked nitrocellulose films 0.5 to 20 μm thick produced larger ion signals. The ions appeared to be emitted over a 1-2 microsecond period in a stochastic manner
