The air and thin film plasma( AP and TFP) sparks may be generated at the same time when high energy laser acts on the surface of the thin film. AP sparks and TFP sparks are often misjudged when the plasma sparks of laser induced thin film damage is detected. Measuring the flash ignitio n time (referred to as “spark time” or “ST”) of AP enables researchers to accurately distinguish AP and TFP sparks and eliminate film damage discrimination that occurs when using plasma flash methods. A Nd:YAG nanosecond pulse laser with 1064 nm wavelength was employed to generate AP and AP sparks through induced laser breakdown in air. The incident laser and AP spark signals were collected using high speed free space detectors and processed using an oscilloscope. These signals were computed and analyzed to obtain the ST of the AP sparks produced during laser induced breakdown and observe the variations in ST with different laser intensities. Finally, the multiphoton absorption and cascade ionization theories were applied to calculate and compare theoretical STs to the experiment results. Findings showed that the experimental STs decreased slightly with an increase in laser intensity. Moreover, the experimental STs were extremely consistent with the theoretical STs, verifying the feasibility of the proposed e xperiment method..

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
