Abstract

In this paper we studied the interaction of femtosecond laser pulse with atomic cluster of Ar. Ionization, heating and expansion of the cluster was the results of this interaction. Following this process, hot and energetic electrons and high charge state of ions were produced. By changing the characteristics of the laser and cluster, it is possible to achieve high efficiency products. Simulation of this work done with the numerical method in Nano plasma model and the evolution of charge state of ions for the various intensity of laser, different pulse shape and different initial ion density are calculated.
