This book is about the interaction of laser radiation with various
surfaces at variable parameters of radiation. As a basic principle
of classification we chose the energetic or intensity level of
interaction of laser radiation with the surfaces. These two
characteristics of laser radiation are the most important
parameters defining entire spectrum of the processes occurring on
the surfaces during interaction with electromagnetic waves. This is
a first book containing a whole spectrum of the laser-surface
interactions distinguished by the ranges of used laser intensity.
It combines the surface response starting from extremely weak laser
intensities (~1 W cm-2) up to the relativistic intensities (~1020 W
cm-2 and higher). The book provides the basic information about
lasers and acquaints the reader with both common applications of
laser-surface interactions (laser-related printers, scanners,
barcode readers, discs, material processing, military, holography,
medicine, etc) and unusual uses of the processes on the surfaces
under the action of lasers (art conservation, rangefinders and
velocimeters, space and earth explorations, surface engineering and
ablation, and others). The scientific applications of
laser-surfaces interactions (surface optical nonlinearities,
surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy, surface nanostructuring,
nanoripples and clusters formation, X-ray lasers and harmonic
generation from the surfaces) are discussed from the point of view
of the close relations between the properties of surface and
matter, which is a cornerstone of most of studies of materials. The
novelty of the approach developed in Laser - Surface Interactions
is related with the interconnection of scientific studies with
numerous applications of the laser-surface interactions separated
in different chapters by the ranges of laser intensities. We
present most recent achievements in this field. The book provides
valuable information for different ranges of reader's preparedness
to the laser-related topics (from unprepared readers, to students,
engineers and researchers, professionals and academics).
