Comparative study of femtosecond laser ablation of glass using ultrathin gold and nickel films as sensitizers

Abstract It is known that an ultrathin Au film can sensitize femtosecond ablation of dielectric substrates by reducing the ablation threshold reduction and enhancing the ablation rate. In this work, we report the first observation that an ultrathin Ni film can also serve as a sen...
