Thin glycerol films were irradiated at atmospheric pressure with an infrared optical parametric oscillator at wavelengths between 2.95 and 3.1 \u00b5m. Particulate material resulting from the ablation was sampled directly into a particle-sizing instrument and particles with diameters greater than 500 nm were detected and sized by light scattering. The fluence threshold for particle formation was between 2000 and 3000 J\/m<sup>2<\/sup> for all laser wavelengths. At threshold, fewer than 100 particles\/cm<sup>3<\/sup> were detected and this value increased to several thousand particles\/cm<sup>3<\/sup> at twice the threshold fluence. The average size of the coarse particles ranged from 900 nm to 1.6 \u00b5m at threshold and decreased by 10-20% at twice the threshold fluence. The coarse particle formation observations were compared with ion formation behavior in matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization and interpreted in terms of a photomechanical mechanism for material ablation and ion formation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/murray\/2283\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/murray\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/dsc00521-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Aerodynamic particle sizer\" class=\"wp-image-2283\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/dsc00521-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/dsc00521-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/dsc00521-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/dsc00521-1568x1176.jpg 1568w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Aerodynamic particle sizer<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2505,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[143,81,134,5],"tags":[104,96,136],"class_list":["post-2503","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-aerosol","category-fundamentals","category-lsu","category-publication","tag-aerosol","tag-glycerol","tag-infrated","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2503","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2503"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2503\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2507,"href":"https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2503\/revisions\/2507"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2505"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2503"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2503"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kermitmurray.com\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2503"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
