“…[2][3][4][5][6] Physical mechanism behind LIFT method is mainly dependent on laser intensity, 2 and intensity wise there are four regimens of LIFT/laser ablation technique, which are well discussed in detail in literature. 2 Depending upon the energy deposited by laser, the ablated particles from the thin film may consist of film fragments, vapor, atoms ͑giving rise to atomic beam͒, and ions. Velocities of the emitted particles have been found to be a function of laser intensity as well as other experimental parameters 2,6-8 such as the physical properties of the target and substrate materials, atmospheric conditions ͑vacuum/ air͒, geometry of ablation, etc.…”
