TY - JOUR A1 - Brockmann, N. A1 - Sicken, A. A1 - Krüger, Jörg T1 - Effects of laser cleaning on the condition of different silk model samples using varying wavelengths and pulse durations N2 - The cleaning of aged silk fibers poses a common challenge in the conservation of textiles, since traditional cleaning techniques often yield unsatisfactory results or even harm objects. In this regard, cleaning objects with laser radiation is a promising addition to the range of available methods. Due to it being contactless, even brittle and touch-sensitive objects with disfiguring or harmful soiling could potentially be cleaned and therefore made accessible for research and presentation. Examples of treatment have sometimes shown spectacular results. Still there is some skepticism concerning the safety of this treatment for textile materials, which has been strengthened through previous 532 nm wavelength nanosecond laser cleaning studies on silk fibers. Taking these published results into account, the range of examined laser parameters has been extended in this study, from 532 nm nanosecond laser to 1064 nm nanosecond and even 800 nm femtosecond laser, reevaluating the effect of this treatment on the fibers. The physicochemical processes taking place on the silk fibers when cleaning with lasers are complex and still not fully understood. The aim of this project was therefore to bring more clarification about potential effects of those processes on the condition of silk samples treated with a set of different parameters for wavelength, pulse duration, energy density and number of pulses per spot. It also looks at the influence of the presence of soiling on the results. The analysis of potential effects was then carried out using statistical methods and advanced analytics. Scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and colorimetry technology provided the required insights to better assess the effects. Results show that laser cleaning of silk fibers, like most other conventional cleaning techniques, is not completely without risk, but knowing what the possible effects are helps making decisions on whether the benefits of the technique used justify these risks.

In dielectrics, the importance of transient excitation stages in the LIPSS formation is demonstrated by using (multiple) cross-polarized double-fs-laser-pulse irradiation sequences. A characteristic decrease of the spatial LIPSS periods is observed for double-pulse delays of less than 2 ps along with a characteristic 90°-rotation of the LIPSS orientation.

A Mach-Zehnder interferometer generated parallel or cross-polarized double-pulse sequences at 400 and 800 nm wavelength, with inter-pulse delays up to a few picoseconds between the sub-ablation 50-fs-pulses. Multiple two-color double-pulse sequences were collinearly focused by a spherical mirror to the sample. The resulting LIPSS characteristics (periods, areas) were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. A wavelength-dependent plasmonic mechanism is proposed to explain the delay-dependence of the LIPSS. These two-color experiments extend previous single-color studies and prove the importance of the ultrafast energy deposition for LIPSS formation.

In order to analyze the relevance of temporally distributed energy deposition in the early stage of LIPSS formation, a Mach-Zehnder interferometer was used for generating multiple double-pulse sequences at two different wavelengths (400 and 800 nm). The inter-pulse delay between the individual cross-polarized pulses of each sequence was systematically varied in the sub-ps range and the resulting LIPSS morphologies were characterized by scanning electron microscopy. It is found that the polarization of the first laser pulse arriving to the surface determines the orientation and the periodicity of the LIPSS. These two-color experiments further confirm the importance of the ultrafast energy deposition to the silica surface for LIPSS formation, particularly by the first laser pulse of each sequence. The second laser pulse subsequently reinforces the previously seeded spatial LIPSS characteristics (period, orientation).

Spatial LIPSS periods between 450 and 600 nm were determined. The nanostructured surface regions were tribologically tested under reciprocal sliding conditions against a 10-mm diameter ball of hardened 100Cr6 steel. Paraffin oil and engine oil were used as lubricants for 1000 sliding cycles at 1 Hz with a normal load of 1.0 N. The corresponding wear tracks were analyzed by OM and SEM. In particular cases, the laser-generated nanostructures endured the tribological treatment. Simultaneously, a significant reduction of the friction coefficient and the wear was observed in the laser-irradiated (LIPSS-covered) areas when compared to the non-irradiated surface.

The temporal delay between the individual equal-energy fs-laser pulses was varied between 0 and ~4 ps for quantification of the transient carrier densities in the conduction band of the laser-excited silicon. The results of the numerical analysis reveal the importance of carrier generation and relaxation processes in fs-LIPSS formation on silicon and quantitatively explain the two time constants of the delay-dependent decrease of the low spatial frequency LIPSS (LSFL) area observed experimentally. The role of carrier generation, diffusion and recombination is quantified individually.

The LIPSS surface morphologies are characterized by scanning electron microscopy and their spatial periods are quantified by two-dimensional Fourier analyses. It is demonstrated that the irradiation environment significantly influences the periodicity of the LIPSS. In air, so-called low-spatial frequency LIPSS (LSFL) were found with periods somewhat smaller than the laser wavelength (ΛLSFL ~ 0.7 × λ0) and an orientation perpendicular to the laser polarization. In contrast, for laser processing in water a reduced ablation threshold and LIPSS with approximately five times smaller periods ΛLIPSS ~ 0.15 × λ0 were observed in the same direction as in air. The results are discussed within the frame of recent LIPSS theories and complemented by a thin film based surface plasmon polariton model, which successfully describes the tremendously reduced LIPSS periods in water.

The indium islands can serve as micro-sized precursors for indium compounds such as copper-indium-gallium-diselenide (CIGSe) used in photovoltaics. Molybdenum is the standard back contact material of CIGSe solar cells. Femtosecond laser ablation of glass and a subsequent deposition of a molybdenum film or direct laser processing of the molybdenum film both allow the preferential nucleation and growth of indium islands at the predefined locations in a following indium-based physical vapor deposition (PVD) process. A proper choice of laser and deposition parameters ensures the controlled growth of indium islands exclusively at the laser ablated spots. Based on a statistical analysis, these results are compared to the non-structured molybdenum surface, leading to randomly grown indium islands after PVD.

As a result, DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) crystal structures are formed on the wood surfaces by the "blooming" of chlorine compounds. In addition to an aesthetic disturbance, it is assumed that DDT represents a health risk. Even decades after applying, the toxins in the wood preservatives are still detectable. Contaminated waste wood with natural biocide ageing, gilded and wood carved elements of an old picture frame and wooden samples with paint layers were provided by the Schlossmuseum Sondershausen, Germany. Laser cleaning of areas of some square millimeters on the surfaces of the objects was done by means of femtosecond and nanosecond laser pulses. For 30-fs laser pulses at 800 nm wavelength a line-wise meandering movement of the object under the focused beam was performed. 10-ns laser pulses at 1064 nm and 7-ns laser pulses at 532 nm wavelength were applied to the sample surface using a scanner. Before laser application, a chlorine measurement was done by X-ray fluorescence analysis (XRF) as reference. After laser processing, the XRF analysis was used again at the same surface position to determine chlorine depletion rates of up to 75% (30 fs, 800 nm), 70% (10 ns, 1064 nm), and 22% (7 ns, 532 nm). For the application of 30-fs laser pulses on waste wood, no crystalline DDT residues remain on the sample surface observed utilizing optical microscopy.

Using femtosecond laser pulses (30 fs, 790 nm, 1 kHz pulse repetition rate), large surface areas (5 mm × 5 mm) of laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) with sub-wavelength periods ranging between 470 nm and 600 nm were generated and characterized by optical microscopy (OM), white light interference microscopy (WLIM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In tribological tests, coefficients of friction (COF) of the nanostructured surfaces were determined under reciprocating sliding conditions (1 Hz, 1.0 N normal load) against a 10-mm diameter ball of hardened 100Cr6 steel during 1000 cycles using two different lubricants, namely paraffin oil and engine oil. It turned out that the substrate material, the laser fluence and the lubricant are crucial for the tribological performance. However, friction and wear could not be significantly reduced by LIPSS on TiN layers in comparison to unstructured TiN surfaces. Finally, the resulting wear tracks on the nanostructured surfaces were investigated with respect to their morphology (OM, SEM), depth (WLIM) and chemical composition by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and, on one hand, compared with each other, on the other hand, with non-structured TiN surfaces.

The laser processing was performed by scanning the laser beam across the surface of initially polished flat sample material. A systematic experimental study of the laser processing parameters (peak fluence, scan velocity, line overlap) allowed the identification of different regimes associated with characteristic surface morphologies (laser-induced periodic surface structures, grooves, spikes, etc.). Analyses of the surface using optical as well as scanning electron microscopy revealed morphologies providing the optimum similarity to the natural skin of lizards. For mimicking skin structures of moisture-harvesting lizards towards an optimization of the surface wetting behavior, additionally a two-step laser processing strategy was established for realizing hierarchical microstructures. In this approach, micrometer-scaled capillaries (step 1) were superimposed by a laser-generated regular array of small dimples (step 2). Optical focus variation imaging measurements finally disclosed the three dimensional topography of the laser processed surfaces derived from lizard skin structures. The functionality of these surfaces was analyzed in view of wetting properties.

T1 - Growth and shape of indium islands on molybdenum at micro-roughened spots created by femtosecond laser pulses N2 - Indium islands on molybdenum coated glass can be grown in ordered arrays by surface structuring using a femtosecond laser. The effect of varying the molybdenum coated glass substrate temperature and the indium deposition rate on island areal density, volume and geometry is investigated and evaluated in a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process. The joined impact of growth conditions and spacing of the femtosecond laser structured spots on the arrangement and morphology of indium islands is demonstrated. The results yield a deeper understanding of the island growth and its precise adjustment to industrial requirements, which is indispensable for a technological application of such structures at a high throughput, for instance as precursors for the preparation of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 micro concentrator solar cells.

During the past few years significantly increasing research activities have been reported in the field of LIPSS, since their generation in a single-step process provides a simple way of nanostructuring and surface functionalization towards the control of optical, mechanical or chemical properties. In this contribution current applications of LIPSS are reviewed, including the colorization of technical surfaces, the control of surface wetting, the tailoring of surface colonization by bacterial biofilms, and the improvement of the tribological performance of nanostructured metal surfaces.

A1 - Krüger, Jörg A1 - Bonse, Jörn T1 - Laser-induced periodic surface structures on zinc oxide crystals upon two-colour femtosecond double-pulse irradiation N2 - In order to study the temporally distributed energy deposition in the formation of laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) on single-crystalline zinc oxide (ZnO), two-colour double-fs-pulse experiments were performed. Parallel or cross-polarised double-pulse sequences at 400 and 800 nm wavelength were generated by a Mach–Zehnder interferometer, exhibiting inter-pulse delays up to a few picoseconds between the sub-ablation 50-fs-pulses. Twenty two-colour double-pulse sequences were collinearly focused by a spherical mirror to the sample surface. The resulting LIPSS periods and areas were analysed by scanning electron microscopy. The delay-dependence of these LIPSS characteristics shows a dissimilar behaviour when compared to the semiconductor silicon, the dielectric fused silica, or the metal titanium. A wavelength-dependent plasmonic mechanism is proposed to explain the delay-dependence of the LIPSS on ZnO when considering multi-photon excitation processes. Our results support the involvement of nonlinear processes for temporally overlapping pulses. These experiments extend previous two-colour studies on the indirect semiconductor silicon towards the direct wide band-gap semiconductor ZnO and further manifest the relevance of the ultrafast energy deposition for LIPSS formation.

T1 - Nanosecond laser damage of optical multimode fibers N2 - For pulse laser materials processing often optical step index and gradient index multimode fibers with core diameters ranging from 100 to 600 μm are used. The design of a high power fiber transmission system must take into account limitations resulting from both surface and volume damage effects. Especially, breakdown at the fiber end faces and self-focusing in the fiber volume critically influence the fiber performance. At least operation charts are desirable to select the appropriate fiber type for given laser parameters. In industry-relevant studies the influence of fiber core diameter and end face preparation on laser-induced (surface) damage thresholds (LIDT) was investigated for frequently used all-silica fiber types (manufacturer LEONI). Experiments on preform material (initial fiber material) and compact specimens (models of the cladding and coating material) accompanied the tests performed in accordance with the relevant LIDT standards ISO 21254-1 and ISO 21254 2 for 1-on-1 and S-on-1 irradiation conditions, respectively. The relation beam diameter vs. LIDT was investigated for fused silica fibers. Additionally, laser-induced (bulk) damage thresholds of fused silica preform material F300 (manufacturer Heraeus) in dependence on external mechanical stress simulating fiber bending were measured. All experiments were performed with 10-ns laser pulses at 1064 and 532 nm wavelength with a Gaussian beam profile.

A1 - Krüger, Jörg A1 - Bonse, Jörn T1 - Properties of surface plasmon polaritons on lossy materials: lifetimes, periods and excitation conditions N2 - The possibility to excite surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) at the interface between two media depends on the optical properties of both media and geometrical aspects. Specific conditions allowing the coupling of light with a plasmon-active interface must be satisfied. Plasmonic effects are well described in noble metals where the imaginary part of the dielectric permittivity is often neglected ('perfect medium approximation (PMA)'). However, some systems exist for which such approximation cannot be applied, hence requiring a refinement of the common SPP theory. In this context, several properties of SPPs such as excitation conditions, period of the electromagnetic field modulation and SPP lifetime then may strongly deviate from that of the PMA. In this paper, calculations taking into account the imaginary part of the dielectric permittivities are presented. The model identifies analytical terms which should not be neglected in the mathematical description of SPPs on lossy materials. These calculations are applied to numerous material combinations resulting in a prediction of the corresponding SPP features. A list of plasmon-active interfaces is provided along with a quantification of the above mentioned SPP properties in the regime where the PMA is not applicable.

These annexes are informative only and are therefore not binding. As there are a variety of hazard scenarios, it is not recommended to change these annexes to a normative status, through which they would become mandatory. Instead, it is recommended to allow users to apply their own skills and know-how in selecting appropriate products, justifying where and why they deviate from the guidance in the standards. This paper explains the background on which the guidance for selection in the annexes of the standards is based and shows physically meaningful leeway.

The aim of this paper is the determination of laser-induced damage thresholds (LIDT) of fibers (FiberTech) and preforms (Heraeus Suprasil F300). Preforms served as models. They were heated up to maximum temperatures of 1100, 1300 and 1500°C and cooled down to room temperature at rates of 10 K min-1 (oven) and ~105 K min-1 (quenched in air) to freeze in various structural states simulating different conditions similar to a drawing process during the production of fibers. Single- and multi-pulse LIDT measurements were done in accordance with the relevant ISO standards. Nd:YAG laser pulses with durations of 15 ns (1064 nm wavelength) and 8.5 ns (532 nm) at a repetition rate of 10 Hz were used. For the preforms, LIDT values (1-on-1) ranged from 220 to 350 J/cm² (1064 nm) and from 80 to 110 J/cm² (532 nm), respectively. A multi-pulse impact changed the thresholds to lower values. The LIDT (1064 nm wavelength) of the preforms can be regarded as a lower limit for those of the fibers.

The ultrashort 30 fs laser pulses (790 nm wavelength) penetrate a thin dip-coated layer of fine ceramic powder, while simultaneously melting a surface layer of the underlying metal. The specific adjustment of the laser parameters (pulse energy and number of pulses per spot) avoids unnecessary melting of the bioactive calcium phosphate, and permits a defined thin surface melting of the metal, which in turn is not heated throughout, and therefore maintains its mechanical stability. It is essential to choose laser energy densities that correspond to the interval between the ablation fluences of both materials involved: about 0.1-0.4 J cm-2. In this work, we present the first results of this unusual technique, including laser ablation studies, scanning electron microscopy and optical microscope images, combined with EDX data.

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical microscopy are used for imaging of the ablated surface morphologies, both revealing LIPSS with periodicities close to the laser wavelength and an orientation always perpendicular to the polarization of the fs-laser beam. It is experimentally demonstrated that these LIPSS can be formed in silicon upon irradiation by single fs-laser pulses—a result that is additionally supported by a recent theoretical model. Two-dimensional Fourier transforms of the SEM images allow the detailed analysis of the distribution of the spatial frequencies of the LIPSS and indicate, at a fixed peak fluence, a monotonous decrease in their mean spatial period between ~770 nm (N = 1) and 560 nm (N = 1000). The characteristic decrease in the LIPSS period is caused by a feedback-mechanism acting upon excitation of surface plasmon polaritons at the rough silicon surface which is developing under the action of multiple pulses into a periodically corrugated surface.

Pulsed laser cleaning of artificially soiled Whatman© filter paper samples serving as models for historical paper was performed. Different cleaning strategies employing 8-ns laser pulses at 532 nm wavelength were applied to clean paper avoiding undesired effects like discoloration (yellowing) and mechanical deterioration of the substrate. Multi shot experiments with low-energy pulses were compared with single pulse investigations utilizing high pulse energies achieving a constant energy load incident on the samples in both cases. The cleaning efficiency and possible yellowing effects were evaluated by means of a multi spectral imaging system. An extensive microscopic analysis of the cleaned parts of the samples provided insight into the remaining soiling on the surface and in the bulk of the paper material after laser treatment.

The breakdown threshold of fibers is determined by intrinsic materials properties and parameters of the technology applied. The aim of this paper is the identification of technological parameters that are crucial for the fiber quality. Fibers were drawn from preforms of Heraeus SWU with core material F300 and a low amount of OH-. Both, the cladding (fluorine doped SiO2) to core diameter ratio (CCDR) and the drawing speed were varied. CCDR values between 1.05 and 1.4 were used. Afterwards, the laser-induced damage thresholds (LIDT) of the fibers were determined. For comparison, also samples from preforms, which underwent different thermal treatments above the transition temperature, were tested with respect to their damage resistivity. Single and multi pulse LIDT measurements were done in accordance with the relevant ISO standards. Nd:YAG laser pulses with durations of 15 ns (1064 nm wavelength) and 8.5 ns (532 nm) at a repetition rate of 10 Hz were utilized. For the fibers, LIDT values (1-on-1, 1064 nm and 532 nm) increased with growing CCDR and with decreasing drawing velocities.

High light throughput and damage resistance are desirable. Laser-induced breakdown at the end faces of fibers can limit their performance. Therefore, the determination of laser-induced damage thresholds (LIDT) at the surface of fibers is essential. Nanosecond (1064 nm and 532 nm wavelength) single-shot LIDT were measured according to the relevant standard on SiO2 glass preforms (Suprasil F300) as basic materials of the corresponding fibers. For 10 kinds of fused silica fibers (FiberTech) with core diameters between 180 µm and 600 µm, an illumination approach utilizing a stepwise increase of the laser fluence on a single spot was used. For both wavelengths, the LIDT values (0% damage probability) obtained by means of the two methods were compared. The influence of surface preparation (polishing) on damage resistance was investigated. For equal surface finishing, a correlation between drawing speed of the fibers and their surface LIDT values was found. In addition to the surface measurements, bulk LIDT were determined for the preform material.

Aufgrund der weiten Verbreitung in Bibliotheken und Kunstsammlungen wurden Hadernpapier und holzhaltiges Papier ausgewählt. Als Referenz diente Whatman-Filterpapier. Zur künstlichen Verschmutzung wurden Zeichenkohle oder Standardschmutz (Standard Test Dust SAE J 726 fine, mit Flammruß im Verhältnis 20:1 gemischt) mit Hilfe von Pinsel und Staubsauger jeweils auf die drei Papierarten aufgetragen und in den Faserverbund eingesaugt. Die Nutzung von Modellproben erweist sich für grundlegende Untersuchungen als vorteilhaft, da das Vorhandensein hinreichend großer Flächen (gleichartiger Objekte) für einen Vergleich mit Ergebnissen klassischer Reinigungstechniken unabdingbar ist. Die preiswerten Proben erlauben darüber hinaus auch die Anwendung zerstörender Analysetechniken. Für die Laserreinigungsexperimente wurde ein Nd:YAG-Laser mit Impulsdauern in der Größenordnung von 10 ns bei 532 nm Wellenlänge und einer Repetitionsrate von 500 Hz verwendet. Die Laser-Bearbeitungsstation erlaubt die flächige Bearbeitung von Objekten, wobei der Laserstrahl bewegt wird. Der Laser wird mittels Computer ferngesteuert und unter Klasse-1-Sicherheitsbedingungen betrieben. Bei der Untersuchung der Modellproben wurde jeweils die Anzahl der Impulse pro Probenstelle sowie die Laser-Energiedichte variiert. Ziel der Arbeiten war die Ermittlung eines Laser-Arbeitsbereiches für die Reinigung der verschiedenen Papierproben. Die Modellobjekte wurden vor und nach der Laserbehandlung mittels lichtmikroskopischer, rasterelektronenmikroskopischer und colorimetrischer Analysemethoden untersucht.

Three different types of paper (pure-cellulose filter paper, rag paper, and wood-pulp paper) were mechanically soiled with pulverized charcoal in a standardized procedure to make model samples. These samples were characterized microscopically and by means of lightness measurements using a multi-spectral imaging system. A prototype laser workstation with Laser Class I conditions for the operator was used for the cleaning experiments. For 10-ns laser pulses at a wavelength of 532 nm, a set of laser parameters was established for a successful cleaning of the samples avoiding damage to the paper substrate. Single- and multi-pulse illumination conditions were tested. An extensive microscopic analysis after laser treatment of the cleaned parts of the samples provided insight into the remaining soiling on the surface and in the bulk of the paper material.

Ablation of titanium nitride (TiN) thin films (~3 μm thickness) by multiple femtosecond laser pulses (τ=130 fs, λ=800 nm) in air environment was studied by means of two different surface analytical methods both being sensitive to chemical alterations at the surface. Scanning Auger electron microscopy was applied for a visualization of the spatial distribution of specific elements (Ti, O) within the laser-modified areas. The chemical state of the irradiated surface was revealed by complementary x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Both methods were used for a depth-profiling chemical analysis (tracking the elements Ti, N, O, and C) using an Ar-ion beam for surface sputtering. In a narrow laser fluence range slightly below the ablation threshold of TiN significant superficial oxidation can be observed leading to the formation of substoichiometric TiO2-x. At fluences above the ablation threshold, an increased titanium concentration is observed within the entire ablation craters. Following upon sputter removal the elemental distribution into the depth of the nonablated material, the results allow an estimation of the heat-affected zone for femtosecond laser ablation in air environment. According to our analyses, the HAZ extends up to a few hundreds of nanometers into the nonablated material.

For all-silica fibers, LIDT increases with rising core diameter in a range between 100-600 µm for a constant cladding-core ratio of 1.2. The damage resistance of the low refracting cladding (0.3 % fluorine doped fused silica) is comparable to the undoped SiO2 core. Coating materials show significantly lower LIDT than light-guiding parts of the fibers.

T1 - Femtosecond laser-induced periodic surface structures: recent approaches to explain their sub-wavelength periodicities N2 - The formation of laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) upon irradiation of semiconductors and dielectrics by linearly polarized high-intensity Ti:sapphire fs-laser pulses (τ ~100 fs, λ ~800 nm) is studied experimentally and theoretically. In the experiments, two different types of LIPSS exhibiting very different spatial periods are observed (socalled LSFL – low spatial frequency LIPSS, and HSFL - high spatial frequency LIPSS), both having a different dependence on the incident laser fluence and pulse number per spot. The experimental results are analyzed by means of a new theoretical approach, which combines the generally accepted LIPSS theory of J. E. Sipe and co-workers [Phys. Rev. B 27, 1141-1154 (1983)] with a Drude model, in order to account for transient changes of the optical properties of the irradiated materials. The joint Sipe-Drude model is capable of explaining numerous aspects of fs-LIPSS formation, i.e., the orientation of the LIPSS, their fluence dependence as well as their spatial periods. The latter aspect is specifically demonstrated for silicon crystals, which show experimental LSFL periods Λ somewhat smaller than λ. This behaviour is caused by the excitation of surface plasmon polaritons, SPP, (once the initially semiconducting material turns to a metallic state upon formation of a dense free-electron-plasma in the material) and the subsequent interference between its electrical fields with that of the incident laser beam, resulting in a spatially modulated energy deposition at the surface. Upon multi-pulse irradiation, a feedback mechanism, caused by the redshift of the resonance in a grating-assisted SPP excitation, is further reducing the LSFL spatial periods. The SPP-based mechanism of LSFL successfully explains the remarkably large range of LSFL periods between ~0.6 λ and λ.
