Thermodynamics effects generated by femtosecond laser ablation are very important. In this work, the numerical simulation of high-energy femtosecond laser ablation especially the electro-phonon coupling coefficient influence of high-energy femtosecond laser ablation on metal target was studied. A new two-temperature model (TTM) which considered the effects of electron density of states (DOS) on electron-phonon coupling coefficient was first established, then the temperature evolvement for electron and lattice in different electro-phonon coupling coefficient G, and the effect of G on electron temperature and lattice temperature and electron-phonon coupling time were emphatically analyzed. The results showed that the electron-phonon coupling coefficient strongly affected the surface electron temperature and coupling time in the femtosecond laser ablation. The smaller the electron-phonon coupling coefficient was, the more the energy transmission from electronic to ion subsystem. As a result, the smaller the value of electron-phonon coupling coefficient, a more rapid decline for the temperature of electronic sub-system achieved. This work will offer help for the future investigation of material fabrication by femtosecond laser ablation.
