Critical assessment of thermal models for laser sputtering at high fluences
Abstract
A critical assessment of thermal models for laser sputtering at high fluences is presented. It is argued that the model explaining such sputtering by involving a subsurface superheating effect misinterprets the meaning of ‘‘vaporization’’ and ‘‘boiling’’. As a result inappropriate boundary conditions are used, including those for both the surface temperature and for the surface temperature gradient. On the contrary, it is shown that explosive boiling (also termed phase explosion) in the sense pioneered by Martynyuk and by Fucke and Seydel remains the only thermal mechanism able to explain laser sputtering at high fluences.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
