Dynamics of ablation of fused silica by multiwavelength excitation process using F<sub>2</sub> and KrF excimer laser has been investigated by energy analyzed mass spectrometry of ablated species. The number of generated Si<sup>+</sup> ion by multiwavelength excitation process corresponds to that by single-F<sub>2</sub> laser ablation and to approximately 2.1 times higher than that by single-KrF excimer laser ablation. In addition, kinetic energy distribution of Si<sup>+</sup> ablated by multiwavelength excitation process shows almost same as that by single-F<sub>2</sub> laser ablation. We regard that absorption of KrF excimer laser by excited state generated by F<sub>2</sub> laser (excited-state absorption: ESA) causes effective photoionization, resulting in enhancement of Si<sup>+</sup> with higher kinetic energy and then in high-quality ablation.
