Abstract The bonding configuration of the crater walls formed in urethane dimethacrylate-based polymer doped with plasmonic gold nanorods upon irradiation a single-shot high-energy femtosecond laser pulse has been studied by Raman spectroscopy. New bands were detected 2000–2500 cm -1 region spectrum intensities which showed strong dependence on concentration nanoparticles and energy pulse. Based model calculations frequencies these peaks attributed to carbon-deuterium nitrogen-deuterium...

Plasmonic nanoparticles embedded into a solid matrix could play crucial role in laser-matter interactions. In this study, excess energy creation was observed during the single-shot irradiation of polymer containing plasmonic gold nanorods, resonant to laser wavelength, with high intensity femtosecond pulse. This effect manifested 7-fold rise crater volume for 1.7-fold increase intensity, and absent pure without doping. It occurred at intensities > 1.5 x 1017 W/cm2, being vanishing threshold...

In this work, the effects of femtosecond laser irradiation and doping with plasmonic gold nanorods on degree conversion (DC) a urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA)-triethylene glycol (TEGDMA) nanocomposite were investigated. The UDMA-TEGDMA photopolymer was prepared in 3:1 weight ratio doped dodecanethiol- (DDT) capped 25 × 75 or 85 nm nominal diameter length. It found that presence alone (without direct excitation) can increase DC by 6-15%. This to be similar what could achieved control heat...
