The electrical signals of the laser-induced plasma plume were obtained by a passive acquisition system. The plume was directly observed and recorded using synchronous high-speed camera. The results showed that the waveform of the signals was in accordance with the periodical laser power. The signals decreased after the laser was turned on and fl uctuated relatively steadily on the stable stage and then increased to 0 V after the laser beam was turned off . The decreasing time of the electrical signals was roughly 1.0 ms, and it decreased with the increasing peak power. However, the average power had insignifi cant eff ect on the signal decreasing time.展开更多
