β¦ Synopsis
A theoretical model of IR laser-induced desorption is developed. An analysis of experimental data shows that this desorption may have a collective character. Such collective character may be the result of so-called resonant or indirect heating. It is shown that this mechanism is not a very efficient one. A new mechanism of laser-induced desorption is proposed. An internal vibration of the adsorbate is excited by laser and its energy is transferred to the desorption mode -an adsorbate-surface bond. This mode coupling with surface phonons becomes unstable. Such instabiliby leads to rupture of the adsorbate-surface bond.
