| Abstract: | Emission of neutral zinc and oxygen atoms and oxygen molecules emitted from zinc oxide surface by laser irradiation have been measured. It is found that the emission intensity starts to increase when the laser intensity exceeds a certain threshold value, indicating that the particle emission is a high density electronic excitation effect. The energy spectrum of emitted particles is found not to follow the Maxwellian distribution. |
