Abstract
Constant elastic alloy is widely used material with high applied performance. In order to develop the application of constant elastic alloy, laser ablation of constant elastic alloy in different ablation mediums was investigated with different femtosecond lasers. Constant elastic alloy was ablated in solution with different ethanol contents and different thicknesses of the liquid layer above the target material and for comparison, in air. Also, the effects of laser energy and laser pulses of femtosecond laser on the morphology are studied. The effects of the position of the laser focus relative to the target surface were also discussed. The experimental results indicate that larger laser-induced area and smaller depth of craters tend to be obtained in solution than in air. The laser-induced area firstly increases and then decreases, and depths of craters decrease at first and increase later with the increase in ethanol content. Furthermore, the larger were energy of laser pulses, the larger were laser-induced area and deeper craters made in all different ablation solutions.
