Molecular-dynamics study of ablation of solids under femtosecond laser pulses (2003, methodology): “Simulations of ablation of organic solids in the stressconfinement regime have also been interpreted in terms of a spallation-like process [15].”
Thermal and fluid processes of a thin melt zone during femtosecond laser ablation of glass: the formation of rims by single laser pulses (2007, background): “Especially during the first 100 ps, the plasma is in a highly nonequilibrium state and it should be approached with a molecular dynamics type of simulations [22, 32, 33 ].”
A review of ultrafast laser materials micromachining (2013, background): “When laser fluence is in a low regime such that ablation happens but below the threshold of plasma formation, many ablation mechanisms are suggested to play very important roles: photomechanical spallation in solids [95,133], homogeneous nucleation of gas bubbles and phase explosion [134,135] fragme”
