Neutral particles ejected from biological material under ultra short laser ablation have been investigated by laser post-ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. It could be shown, that beside ionized species, a substantial amount of neutral particles is ejected. A temporal study of the ablation plume is carried out by recording neutral particle time-of- flight mass spectra as a function of delay time between the ablation and post-ionization pulse. Close the ablation threshold, the mechanism of ejection is found to be of predominantely mechanical nature, driven by the relaxation of the laser-induced pressure. In this regime of stress con?nement, the ejection results in very broad velocity distributions and extremely low velocities.
