  • Comparative study of cell damage and ablation characteristics across different radiation modes.

    • Main Results:

    • Direct laser irradiation showed minimal cell damage.
    • Focused irradiation induced cell splitting and moisture removal with circular, rough-edged ablation patterns.
    • Laser plasma radiation was identified as a key factor in ablation, involving thermal effects, ionization, and shock waves.

    Conclusions:

    • Laser plasma effects significantly enhance laser pulse energy deposition and cell peeling.
    • This mechanism increases the scope and efficiency of cell killing, making it suitable for cell destruction applications.
    • The findings support the use of laser plasma radiation in advanced laser surgery and therapeutic cell elimination.
