In this paper, the wave break in the plasma-vacuum interface during the intense laser interaction is investigated. Since the nonlinear wave breaking is a non-adiabatic process, the fully kinetic 1D-3V Particle-In-Cell (PIC) simulation experiments are performed to identify whether that the origin of this mechanism is electromagnetic or electrostatic. Our simulation results show that the nonlinear wave breaking on the vacuum-plasma interface has electrostatic origin. In addition, it is found that for pulse lengths exceeding the plasma wavelength this electrostatic phenomenon comes in conjunction with some active electromagnetic effects having the same impact on the electron acceleration. In these regards, we conduct sophisticated simulations isolating these electromagnetic effects and study the effects of the pulse parameters such as the pulse rise time, pulse length, and pulse shape on the boundary nonlinear wave breaking. The study of the pulse rise-time variation effects shows that as the rise time of the laser pulse decreases, the number of the electrons involved in the nonlinear wave breaking, maximum energy of the trapped electrons and the path length of the accelerated electrons in the phase space are increased. Also, the study of phase space and field patterns in our simulation indicates that the reduction of the pulse flat top duration time causes that the smaller part of the electrons and the smaller portion of the wake wave involve in the nonlinear wave breaking.
