Abstract
It is shown that CO2-laser radiation-induced periodic structures on the surface of metallic targets result in a dramatic increase (by up to one order of magnitude) in the sample absorptivity. This behavior has made it possible to gain new insight into the thermal coupling of powerful CO2-laser radiation with the initially highly reflectant metallic surfaces.Keywords
