Abstract

Copper plates are irradiated with pulsed laser light on one side, and the opposite side is investigated with a scanning tunneling microscope. It is found that the submicrorelief of the back surface changes after irradiation. During irradiation it emits a light pulse. It is established that a relation exists between the luminescence intensity and the magnitude of the change in the surface submicrorelief.
