Abstract :
Summary form only given. Recently we have shown that near-threshold ablation of absorbing solids with femto- and picosecond pulses exhibits a material independent behavior, which is characterized by a distinct transient interference phenomenon in the nanosecond time range. In this work we present a combined experimental and theoretical study of ultrashort laser pulse ablation of graphite, emphasizing how the observed universal ablation behavior is influenced by the specific properties of the irradiated material.
