Abstract:
A mechanism of the formation of a nanotip with a nanoparticle at its top that appears in a thin metal film irradiated by a single femtosecond laser pulse has been studied experimentally and theoretically. It has been found that the nanotip appears owing to a melt flow and a nanojet formation, which is cooled and solidified. Within a proposed hydrodynamic model, the development of thermocapillary instability in the melted film is treated with the use of the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky-type hydrodynamic equation. The simulation shows that the nanojet nucleates in the form of a nanopeak in a pit on the top of a microbump (linear stage) and, then, grows in a nonlinear (explosive) regime of an increase in thermocapillary instability in good agreement with experimental data.
