Abstract

The plasma propulsion generated in nanosecond pulse laser interaction with polyimide film is investigated. A comparison of coupling coefficient and specific impulse with glass layer and water layer confinement is given. It shows that polyimide has a higher efficiency in water confinement ablation. Through doped carbon black in polyimide film, a higher coupling coefficient is obtained. In ablated surface images, less re-deposited products on polyimide surface have been observed compared with other polymers at the same laser intensity.
