Abstract The ultrafast laser-matter interaction is explored to induce new pioneering principles and technologies into the realms of fundamental science industrial production. local thermal melting connection properties laser welding technology offers a novel method for diverse transparent materials, thus having wide range potential applications in aerospace, opto-mechanical systems, sensors, microfluidic, optics, etc. In this comprehensive review, tuning transient electron activation...
A technology of laser-induced coloration metals by surface oxidation is demonstrated. Each color the oxide film corresponds to a technologic chromacity coefficient, which takes into account temperature sample after exposure sequence laser pulses with nanosecond duration and effective time action. The coefficient can be used for calculation regimes development specific on metal. correlation between composition films obtained stainless steel AISI 304 commercial titanium Grade 2 its coordinates shown.
A laser is a very sharp tool, so to speak, for carving materials at the nanoscale, but involves many poorly understood, nonequilibrium processes. The authors' investigation combines an advanced experimental technique, using UV realize much finer structures than possible visible beam, with atomistic-continuum computational method that allows direct comparison of simulations empirical results. This provides both tools and understanding needed develop nanotechnology diverse ends in e.g....
