Amorphization in crystalline tellurium by femtosecond pulses

Crystalline tellurium undergoes amorphization after irradiation with strong femtosecond pulses. Steady-state reflectivity and single-shot transient reflectivity studies suggest the amorphization is due to thermal melting rather than non-thermal switching.
