Abstract
The ablation threshold of a laser fluence with respect to the surface of a sample manufactured in a high vacuum chamber is determined by using the sample. The quantity of vacancy-type defects is determined by radiating a laser beam having a fluence slightly higher than the ablation threshold on the surface. At the same time, the quantities of adatom-type and kink-type defects are determined by radiating a pulsed laser beam having a fluence slightly lower than the ablation threshold on the surface repeatedly to obtain the relation between an emission yield and the number of laser pulses. The quantity of the adatom-type defects is obtained by determining the area (total quantity of emitted atoms) of a rapidly decreasing portion of the relation. The quantity of kink-type defects is obtained by determining a magnitude of an emission yield of a slowly decreasing portion of the relation.
