Abstract
The angular distribution of laser ablated particles from silver irradiated at 355 nm has been studied. The angular distribution from craters prepared by more than 10(4) shots exhibits only minor changes compared with that fro m a nonirradiated target. The distribution from artificial cylindrical crat ers of a depth comparable to the laser spot dimensions is about one order o f magnitude smaller at large exit angles than that from a flat target.
