Abstract

The mechanisms and kinetics of diffusion growth of metal inclusions (Cu) on the surface of illuminated composites under pulsed laser irradiation of nanosecond pulse duration are studied. Preparation of composites consisted of three stages: doping of the subsurface layer of a soda-lime glass with bivalent copper ions, reduction of metallic copper, and growth of copper clusters. The obtained mechanism is confirmed by estimates of kinetics of laser-induced particle growth, which are in good agreement with experimental results.
