Abstract:Optical probing of laser-assisted chemical reactions on surfaces in real time can help explain and control these processes. Raman microprobe spectroscopy and micro laser induced fluorescence are the two optical probes employed here to investigate several examples of localized laser surface reactions. Raman microprobe analysis is used to monitor in real time the CuCl and CuCl2 products on the surface during local laser etching of copper films by Cl2 and the concomitant loss of the Cu2O passivation layer. It is … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
