Interaction of femtosecond pulses of p-polarised radiation with a rapidly heated metal

  • 1. P N Lebedev Physical Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow (Russian Federation)

Description

The effects of rapid nonuniform heating of electrons on reflection of a p-polarised pulse from the metal are quantitatively described. Under conditions of normal and high-frequency skin effects, the absorption coefficient and phase shift of the reflected wave are calculated numerically upon irradiation of a gold target.
