Key Points

The study reveals how laser-induced dewetting alters thin metallic films depending on their optical environment, and it highlights morphological differences observed.
Key evidence shows that the morphology and optical response of laser-exposed regions vary significantly between gold and silica underlayers.
Observational analysis examines the impact of different optical cavities on thin films, revealing insights into film behavior under laser exposure.
These findings may enable better control of thin film processes, but external validation in varied settings is needed.

Implication

Observational analysis investigates morphology changes in thin metallic films, suggesting sensitivity to optical environments.

Abstract

We explore laser-induced dewetting of thin metallic films deposited on different underlayers of optical cavities of gold and silica. We observe the morphology and optical response of laser-exposed regions are sensitive to the optical environment.
