Which limiting outcome occurs when an ablative laser machining process?

💡 Explanation

Excessive laser energy causes increased ablation, generating significant heat; Lateral Heat Conduction then affects surrounding material because the energy spreads rather than vaporizing it, therefore the heat-affected zone enlarges greatly, rather than minimal effects targeting a single area.
