Abstract

Ultrafast structural transformations were investigated in femtosecond laser-excited graphite. Within a few hundred femtoseconds after laser excitation an increase in the intensity of the p-component was observed and the anisotropic s-component dropped sharply within 300-500 fs. This indicated a very rapid loss of crystalline order and confirmed the non-thermal nature of the transition.
