Abstract

Characteristics of excimer laser-generated pulsed Na beams are studied by time-resolved emission spectroscopy and LIF techniques. Fast speed Rydberg state Na atoms, slow speed Na * 2 and Na atoms are identified experimentally. Their formation mechanisms are attributed to the inverse bremsstrahlung and the photothermal processes. Rydberg state metal atoms with kinetic energies in the range of a few to more than 100 eV can be generated by this laser vaporization technique.
