Proposed model for formation of cyanate ions O=C=N(-) and isocyanic acid (O=C=N-H) in the FEL ablation by homolytic cleavage of a collagen-like polypeptide (Pro-Pro-Gly)10 at an internal glycine residue. The resultant peptidyl radicals can initiate further free radical reactions. The O=C=N(-) and O=C=N-H intermediates exhibit volatile and nonvolatile IR peaks, correspondingly.
