A computer model to simulate the evolution of parameters describing laser ablation processes was developed. The absorbed laser energy, the heat diffusion, the phase transformations and the shielding effect of the ablated material were taken into account. The temporal development of the ablated volume, pore depth and extension of the melt zone were calculated for single pulses of 500, 100, 20, 5 and 1 ns. Simulations were performed for pulse energies of 50 μJ and spot diameters of 10 μm. From temporal evolution curves of the ablated volumes, the stoppage of the ablation process was evidenced before the end of the processing pulse. Comments with respect to optimal pulse duration (in the ns regime) are also formulated.
