A1 - Pentzien, Simone A1 - Conradi, Andrea A1 - Krüger, Jörg T1 - Characterization of laser-generated microparticles by means of a dust monitor and SEM imaging N2 - Nanosecond laser (1064 nm wavelength) cleaning of artificially soiled paper as a model sample simulating a real-world artwork was performed. During the cleaning process, the ejection of particles was monitored in situ by means of a dust monitor (8 size classes, ranging from 0.3 µm to >2 µm) and ex situ using a mini-cascade impactor (MKI, 5 stages). The cleaning result was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) considering possible laser-induced damages to the substrate. Size distributions of emitted particles were measured depending on the processing parameters: laser fluence, F, and pulse number per spot, N. High numbers of large (>2 µm) particles were collected by the mini-cascade impactor indicating a gas dynamical liftoff process. Obviously, these particles were not affected by the laser-matter interaction. The different methods (SEM, MKI, and dust monitor) are compared with respect to their usefulness for a proper interpretation of the cleaning results.

Im Fokus: Fasermaterial, Füllstoffe und Leimung N2 - Restauratoren können verschiedene Papierarten mit dem bloßen Auge aufgrund von Merkmalen in der Textur und der Oberflächenbeschaffenheit, seinem Aussehen im Durchlicht sowie an Griff und Klang grob unterscheiden. Dabei ist sich der Restaurator stets der Tatsache bewusst, dass es sich lediglich um eine erste grobe Einschätzung handeln kann. Erst bei mikroskopischen Analysen und physikalischen Experimenten treten Charakteristika zu Tage, die eine weitere Annäherung an die Zusammensetzung des Papiers und damit seiner Provenienz erlauben. Gegenstand dieser Arbeit war es, ein europäisches Hadernpapier, ein holzhaltiges Zeichenpapier und ein Whatman®-Filterpapier mit zwei mikroskopischen Methoden und einer Verbrennungstechnik zu untersuchen. Das Fasermaterial, die Füllstoffe, die Leimung und eventuelle Verunreinigungen wurden detailliert evaluiert. Neben konventioneller Lichtmikroskopie kam die weniger bekannte Umweltrasterelektronenmikroskopie (ESEM = Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy) zum Einsatz, die neben der bildlichen Darstellung der Probenoberflächen zusätzlich eine Elementanalyse derselben gestattet. Letzteres erfordert allerdings das Vorhandensein eines zusätzlichen Röntgenspektrometers. Darüber hinaus wurden die verschiedenen Papiere trocken verascht. Es wurde eine oxidative Zerstörung der organischen Stoffe gewährleistet bis nur noch nichtbrennbare mineralische Asche zu verzeichnen war. Die Komplementarität der eingesetzten Methoden wird demonstriert und ein Einblick in die Zusammensetzung und Struktur der Papiere ermöglicht. Die Analysemethoden sind durch ihren partiell zerstörenden Charakter bzw. Limitierungen hinsichtlich der Objektgröße nur bedingt für die Untersuchung am Original geeignet, sehr wohl aber dafür, das Probenmaterial für Versuchsreihen genau zu definieren und zu standardisieren.

However, it is challenging to establish a low-cost process by using pulsed laser tools. So far a single-step process only leads to satisfying results utilizing cw-lasers. In this paper we have examined a two-step process to produce laser-doped selective emitters on multicrystalline textured standard silicon photovoltaic wafers (90-Ω/sq-Emitter, SiN-antireflection coating (ARC)). The precise ARC removal by near-infrared fs-laser pulses (30 fs, 800 nm), and the doping of uncoated silicon wafers by ns-laser pulses (8 ns, 532 nm) were systematically investigated. In the fs-experiment, optimum conditions for ARC removal were identified. In the nsexperiments under suitable conditions (melting regime), the phosphorous concentration underneath the wafer surface was significantly increased and the sheet resistance was reduced by nearly a factor of two. Moreover, electrical measurements on fired metallization fingers deposited on the laser processed wafers showed low contact resistances. Hence, wafer conditioning with combined fs-laser- and ns-laser-processes are expected to be a promising technology for producing selective emitters.

T1 - Cleaning of artificially soiled papers by infrared and mid-infrared lasers N2 - One of the most important materials presenting and witnessing human culture is paper. The cleaning of paper is often necessary because contamination must be removed so that the fragile organic substrate can be preserved. The conventional cleaning methods are mechanical or involve the application of chemicals. These methods can damage drawings or print layers to some extent or make the original paper substrate brittle. More specifically, the use of a scalpel blade can cause damage to fibers. Chemical cleaning is difficult to perform locally, can dissolve foreign matter that then migrates into the paper substrate, or involves volatile organic compounds that can be harmful to the conservator. There is, therefore, a need for new conservation technologies aimed at the safe cleaning of paper. Lasers have proved to be an appropriate tool for cleaning as the energy dose and penetration depth at the specific point of contamination can be controlled. Additionally, if used properly, laser cleaning is not destructive to the paper.

Failure of those fibers is a significant risk. The determination of laser-induced damage thresholds (LIDT) on fiber end facets according to ISO 21254 standard is needed. In the past, single pulse nanosecond laser experiments showed an improvement of LIDT with increasing fiber core diameter for 1064 nm wavelength and a constant beam diameter of 50 µm. This paper pays particular attention to the influence of the laser beam diameter on damage resistance. All-silica fiber types (LEONI) with different core diameters (100–600 µm) were investigated using beam diameters in a range from 30 µm to 100 µm. For comparison experiments on fused silica preform material (Heraeus F300) were performed. On one hand, surface LIDT of fused silica preform material decreases significantly with increasing beam size. A model considering a random distribution of point defects explains the experimental data qualitatively. On the other hand, LIDT of fiber end facets stays constant. White light microscopy results suggest that the point defect density on fiber end facets is lower compared to the preform surface due to an excellent surface polish quality.

T1 - Laser interaction with parchment in the near-ultraviolet and near-infrared wavelength range N2 - A detailed diagnostic study of the interaction of nanosecond laser pulses from the near-ultraviolet into the near-infrared wavelength range with various types of contemporary and ancient parchments is presented. The advantages of laser cleaning due to the absence of chemical agents, spectroscopic selectivity, micro-precision, computer-aided handling can only be verified when physico-chemical diagnostics guarantee destructionless processing. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) data are correlated with morphological changes in dependence on the laser fluence and wavelength. The question, to what extent the chemical degradation of collagen is affected by various laser treatment parameters, could be resolved by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) of collagen fibres collected from the outermost laser-exposed surface layer. It is also shown how Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy (DRIFT), and Pyrolysis Capillary Gaschromatography (PY-CGC) can be employed in the chemical diagnostics of laser cleaning of parchment. This study suggests that the ageing status of parchment artefacts plays a major role in assessing the laser cleaning limits.

N2 - Censorship of parts of written text was and is a common practice in totalitarian regimes. It is used to destroy information not approved by the political power. Recovering the censored text is of interest for historical studies of the text. This paper raises the question, whether a censored postcard from 1942 can be made legible by applying multispectral imaging in combination with laser cleaning. In the fields of art conservation (e.g. color measurements), investigation (e.g. Analysis of underdrawings in paintings), and historical document analysis, multispectral imaging techniques have been applied successfully to give visibility to information hidden to the human eye. The basic principle of laser cleaning is to transfer laser pulse energy to a contamination layer by an absorption process that leads to heating and evaporation of the layer. Partial laser cleaning of postcards is possible; dirt on the surface can be removed and the obscured pictures and writings made visible again. We applied both techniques to the postcard. The text could not be restored since the original ink seems to have suffered severe chemical damage.

The laser processing (i) was carried out by a Ti:sapphire laser (pulse duration 30 fs, central wavelength 790 nm, pulse repetition rate 1 kHz) in a regime of generating laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS). The experimental conditions (laser fluence, spatial spot overlap) were optimized in a sample-scanning setup for the processing of several square-millimeters large surface areas covered homogeneously by these nanostructures. The differently oxidized titanium surfaces were characterized by optical microscopy, micro Raman spectroscopy, variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry, and instrumented indentation testing. The tribological performance was characterized in the regime of mixed friction by reciprocating sliding tests against a sphere of hardened steel in fully formulated engine oil as lubricant. The specific tribological performance of the differently treated surfaces is discussed with respect to possible physical and chemical mechanisms.

The largest part of the collection comes from the Kucha region, a very important cultural center in the third to ninth centuries. Between 1902 and 1914, four German expeditions traveled along the northern Silk Road. During these expeditions, wall paintings were detached from their original settings in Buddhist cave complexes. This paper reports a technical study of a wall painting, existing in eight fragments, from the Buddhist cave no. 40 (Ritterhöhle). Its original painted surface is soot blackened and largely illegible. Grünwedel, leader of the first and third expeditions, described the almost complete destruction of the rediscovered temple complex and evidence of fire damage. The aim of this case study is to identify the materials used for the wall paintings. Furthermore, soot deposits as well as materials from conservation interventions were of interest. Non-invasive analyses were preferred but a limited number of samples were taken to provide more precise information on the painting technique. By employing optical and scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, micro X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and Raman spectroscopy, a layer sequence of earthen render, a ground layer made of gypsum, and a paint layer containing a variety of inorganic pigments were identified.
