Abstract

The possibility of surface microstructuring of melted and solid target by a weak femtosecond laser pulse is demonstrated. An appreciable increase of hot electron energy is observed in 3D PIC simulations of interaction of ultrashort laser pulse with modified surface of the target in a wide range on laser intensities. First experimental results on x-ray diagnostics of plasma, created onto the surface of microstructured solid and melted target are presented.
