摘要

Near-threshold femtosecond laser surface treatment of titanium produces functional nanostructures, which has received much attention in applications and scientific researches. However, researches on the mechanism of near-threshold temporally-shaped femtosecond laser ablation of titanium are scarce, because the difficulty of investigating the modification mechanism of surface properties by sub-pulses below the ablation threshold. In this study, the double-pulse femtosecond laser ablation with various pulse separation was investigated. We found that the maximum ablation area appeared around 1 ps pulse separation at different fluences, and the ablation enhancement weakened with the increase of the fluence. The ultrafast pump–probe microscopy technique and ultrafast thermoelasticity model were used to investigate the mechanism. The result of pump–probe microscopy technique indicated that the enhancement of the area was caused by the decrease of transient reflectivity in the early stages which facilitated the subsequent sub-pulse energy absorption. The theoretical results indicate that the maximum ablation enhancement occurred at 1 ps, which is due to the combination of thermal and mechanical effects. The maximum of long axis diameter of periodic structure also appeared at 1 ps in multi-point processing. These findings have significant implications for the modulation of titanium surface nanostructures and providing theoretical support for processing.
