The surface of a titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) implant material was covered with a bioactive calcium alkali phosphate ceramic with the aim to accelerate the healing and to form a stronger bond to living bone tissue. To fix the ceramic powder we used a femtosecond laser, which causes a thin surface melting of the metal. It is a requirement to prove that the laser irradiation would not reduce the lifetime of implants. Here we present the results of mechanical stability tests, determined by the rotating bending fatigue strength of sample rods. After describing the sample surfaces and their modifications caused by the laser treatment we give evidence for an unchanged mechanical stability. This applies not only to the ceramic fixation but also to a comparatively strong laser ablation.
Light concentration opens up the path to enhanced material efficiency of solar cells via increased conversion efficiency and decreased material requirement. For true material saving, a fabrication method allowing local growth of high quality absorber material is essential. We present two scalable fs-laser based approaches for bottom-up growth of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 micro islands utilizing either site-controlled assembly of In(,Ga) droplets on laser-patterned substrates during physical vapor deposition, or laser-induced forward transfer of (Cu,In,Ga) layers for local precursor arrangement. The Cu(In,Ga)Se2 absorbers formed after selenization can deliver working solar devices showing efficiency enhancement under light concentration.
A procedure to fabricate CuInSe2 (CISe) micro-absorbers and solar cells for concentrator applications is presented. The micro-absorbers are developed from indium precursor islands, which are deposited on a molybdenum coated glass substrate (back contact), followed by deposition of copper on top and subsequent selenization as well as selective etching of copper selenides. In order to compare the properties of the locally grown absorbers to those of conventional large area CISe films, we systematically examine the compositional and morphological homogeneity of the micro absorbers and carry out photoluminescence measurements. Preliminary devices for micro-concentrator solar cell applications are fabricated by optimizing the copper to indium ratio and the size of the indium precursor islands. The resulting micro solar cells provide a characteristic I–V curve under standard illumination conditions (1 sun).
Diese Arbeit beschreibt die Laserreinigung von gebräuchlichen Papieren des 19. Jahrhunderts in Kombination mit zwei Schmutzvarianten. 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.
Um Kulturgüter aus organischen Substanzen zu bewahren, wurden besonders in den 70er und 80er Jahren Biozide, wie z.B. das flüssige Holzschutzmittel Hylotox-59, eingesetzt. Es enthält Dichlordiphenyltrichlorethan (DDT), das im Verdacht steht, krebsauslösend zu sein. Durch „Ausblühen“ der Chlorverbindungen entstehen an der Holzoberfläche Kristallstrukturen. Eine Entfernung dieser Kristalle und damit eine Abreicherung von Chlor an der Oberfläche sind sehr erwünscht.
Eine Laserreinigung von ausgewählten Teilen musealer Holzobjekte aus dem Schlossmuseum Sondershausen wurde mit Impulsdauern im Femto- und Nanosekundenbereich durchgeführt. Der Chlornachweis vor und nach dem Lasereinsatz wurde mittels Röntgenfluoreszenzanalytik (RFA) erbracht. Chlorabreicherungen von 55-70% und 75% wurden beim Einsatz von ns-Impulsen bei 1064 nm Wellenlänge bzw. fs-Impulsen bei 800 nm Wellenlänge erreicht. Im fs-Fall verblieben keine kristallinen DDT-Rückstände auf den Probenoberflächen.
Bacterial biofilms pose serious problems in medical and industrial settings. One of the major societal challenges lies in the increasing resistance of bacteria against biocides used in antimicrobial treatments, e.g., via overabundant use in medicine, industry, and agriculture or cleaning and disinfection in private households. Hence, new efficient bacteria-repellent strategies avoiding the use of biocides are strongly desired. One promising route to achieve bacteria-repellent surfaces lies in the contactless and aseptic large-area laser-processing of technical surfaces. Tailored surface textures, enabled by different laser-processing strategies that result in topographic scales ranging from nanometers to micrometers may provide a solution to this challenge. This article presents a current state-of-the-art review of laser-surface subtractive texturing approaches for controlling the biofilm formation for different bacterial strains and in different environments. Based on specific properties of bacteria and laser-processed surfaces, the challenges of anti-microbial surface designs are discussed, and future directions will be outlined.
Laser-induzierte Zerstörung von optischen Komponenten bei Anwendung von Femtosekunden-Impulsen

Laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS, ripples) are a universal phenomenon and can be generated on almost any material upon irradiation with linearly polarized radiation. With the availability of ultrashort laser pulses, LIPSS have gained an increasing attraction during the past decade, since these structures can be generated in a simple single-step process, which allows a surface nanostructuring for tailoring optical, mechanical, and chemical surface properties. In this study, the current state in the field of LIPSS is reviewed. Their formation mechanisms are analyzed in ultrafast time-resolved scattering, diffraction, and polarization constrained double-pulse experiments. These experiments allow us to address the question whether the LIPSS are seeded via ultrafast energy deposition mechanisms acting during the absorption of optical radiation or via self-organization after the irradiation process. Relevant control parameters of LIPSS are identified, and technological applications featuring surface functionalization in the fields of optics, fluidics, medicine, and tribology are discussed.
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.
Single- and two-color double-fs-pulse experiments were performed on titanium to study the dynamics of the formation of laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS). A Mach-Zehnder inter-ferometer generated polarization controlled (parallel or cross-polarized) double-pulse sequences in two configurations – either at 800 nm only, or at 400 and 800 nm wavelengths. The inter-pulse delays of the individual 50-fs pulses ranged up to some tens of picoseconds. Multiple of these single- or two-color double-fs-pulse sequences were collinearly focused by a spherical mirror to the sample surface. In both experimental configurations, the peak fluence of each individual pulse was kept below its respective ablation threshold and only the joint action of both pulses lead to the formation of LIPSS. Their resulting characteristics were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and the periods were quantified by Fourier analyses. The LIPSS periods along with the orientation allow a clear identification of the pulse which dominates the energy coupling to the material. A plasmonic model successfully explains the delay-dependence of the LIPSS on titanium and confirms the importance of the ultrafast energy deposition stage for LIPSS formation.
The dynamics of the formation of laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) on fused silica upon irradiation with linearly polarized fs-laser pulses (50 fs pulse duration) is studied by cross-polarized two-color double-fs-pulse experiments. 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).
The current state in the field of laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS, ripples) is reviewed. Their formation mechanisms are analyzed in ultrafast experiments (time-resolved diffraction and polarization controlled double-pulse experiments) and technological applications are demonstrated.
Laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) are a universal phenomenon and can be generated on almost any material by irradiation with linearly polarized radiation. This chapter reviews the current state in the field of LIPSS, which are formed in a “self-ordered” way and are often accompanying materials processing applications. LIPSS can be produced in a single-stage process and enable surface nanostructuring and, in turn, adaption of optical, mechanical, and chemical surface properties. Typically, they feature a structural size ranging from several micrometers down to less than 100 nm and show a clear correlation with the polarization direction of the light used for their generation. Various types of LIPSS are classified, relevant control parameters are identified, and their material-specific formation mechanisms are analyzed for different types of inorganic solids, i.e., metals, semiconductors, and dielectrics. Finally, technological applications featuring surface functionalization in the fields of optics, fluidics, medicine, and tribology are discussed.
