Abstract
The high-power iodine laser of the Prague Asterix Laser System (PALS), emitting radiation at 438 nm wavelength, 400 ps pulse duration and about 250 J maximum pulse energy, was employed to irradiate in vacuum a germanium target. The amount, the energy and the charge state of the ions emitted from the laser-produced plasma are analyzed by time-of-flight measurements performed with the use of ion collectors (ICs) and an electrostatic ion energy analyzer (IEA). Energetic Ge ions emitted from the laser-produced plasma were directly implanted into C substrates placed at 30 cm distance from the target and 30° angle with respect to the normal to the target surface. The implantation depths and implanted doses were analyzed by two different techniques: the Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) and the laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS).
