Fabrication of ZnO-nanowire-coated thin-foil targets for ultra-high intensity laser interaction experiments

The coupling of ultra-intense, ultra-short laser pulses with solid targets is heavily dependent on the properties of the vacuum–solid interface and is usually quite low. However, laser absorption can be enhanced via micro or nanopatterning of the target surface. Depending on the laser features and t...
