The communication is focused on the influence of the pulse width, ranging from femtosecond to picosecond, on the
laser – matter interaction during laser ablation of solid materials. Modifications in the stretcher-compressor do
allow the continuous selection of amplified pulses in the range between 35 fs to 4 ps. Time constants, fluence
threshold, and multi-channel spectra have been measured out of the generated plasmas.Universidad de Málaga. Campus de Excelencia Internacional Andalucía Tech.
