Modeling of structure of deposit formed by laser-induced deposition of metals from gas phase

Abstract

The mathematical model that describes adequate the laser-induced process of metal deposition from gas phase on dielectric substrate is suggested. In the result of calculation, the temperature field distribution in deposited materials and deposit profiles for different process stages are obtained. The material deposition rate in the moment of deposited particle contacting with free surface is calculated. The explanation of mechanism of formation of irregular form deposits at the initial stage of deposition is proposed.
