Ablation experiments in several glasses with single and multishot irradiation by laser pulses in the 10-fs pulse duration domain are presented; physical and technological implications are discussed. We demonstrate that these short pulses offer the potential for lateral and vertical machining precision of the order of 100 nm.
The laser ablation behaviour of ion-doped glass filter materials under irradiation with femtosecond laser pulses was investigated with respect to spot size and repetition rate. The damage threshold fluence of Schott BG18 depends on the size of the irradiated area. The effect is discussed in terms of a defect-site model.
Cleaning of artificially soiled paper using nanosecond, picosecond and femtosecond laser pulses
(2010)
Cleaning of cultural assets, especially fragile
organic materials like paper, is a part of the conservation
process. Laser radiation as a non-contact tool offers
prospects for that purpose. For the studies presented here,
paper model samples were prepared using three different paper
types (pure cellulose, rag paper, and wood-pulp paper).
Pure cellulose serves as reference material. Rag and woodpulp
paper represent essential characteristics of the basic
materials of real-world artworks. The papers were mechanically
soiled employing pulverized charcoal. Pure and artificially soiled paper samples were treated with laser pulses of
28 fs (800 nm wavelength) and 8–12 ns (532 nm) duration in
a multi pulse approach. Additionally, the cellulose reference
material was processed with 30 ps (532 nm) laser pulses.
Damage and cleaning thresholds of pure and soiled paper
were determined for the different laser regimes. Laser working
ranges allowing for removal of contamination and avoiding
permanent modification to the substrate were found.
The specimens prior and after laser illumination were characterized
by light-optical microscopy (OM) and scanning
electron microscopy (SEM) as well as multi spectral imaging
analysis. The work extends previous nanosecond laser
cleaning investigations on paper into the ultra-short pulse
duration domain.
