The energy penetration depth characteristic of the interaction of intense subpicosecond (~600 fs) ultraviolet (248 nm) laser radiation with solid density material has been experimentally determined. This was accomplished by using a series of ultraviolet transmitting targets consisting of a fused silica (SiO2) substrate coated with an 80–600 nm layer of MgF2. The measurement of He-like and H-like Si and Mg lines, as a function of MgF2 thickness, enabled the determination of the energy penetration depth. It was found that this depth falls in the range of 250–300 nm for a laser intensity of ~3×1016 W/cm2. Based on numerical simulations, it is estimated that solid density material to a depth of ~250 nm is heated to an electron temperature of ~500 eV.

(Received 30 May 1990; accepted 16 October 1990)

Electron kinetics is considered in a plasma in which the distribution of ion charge stages is far from the coronal equilibrium. In rapidly ionizing plasmas, radiative cooling and ionization are found to cause the electron distribution to deviate significantly from a Maxwellian. The relevance of such distribution functions to divertor plasmas near the neutralizer plate is discussed. Physics of Fluids B: Plasma Physics is copyrighted by The American Institute of Physics
