All previous sections describe somewhat traditional forms of laser processing in that they
follow the model of PLD, ie, laser/target interaction produce a plume of material that is then …

This work reviews the interaction of photons with polymers with an emphasis on UV laser
ablation and surface modification using VUV lamps. Laser ablation of polymers is an …

We report spectroscopic studies of the zinc plasma produced in air by the three harmonics of
a Q-switched pulsed Nd: YAG laser at 1064, 532 and 355 nm. The electron temperature has …

Two techniques for transferring biomaterial using a pulsed laser beam were developed:
matrix-assisted pulsed laser evaporation (MAPLE) and MAPLE direct write (MDW). MAPLE …

Thin films of poly (lactide-co-glycolide)(PLGA), a biodegradable polymer, were deposited on
Si wafers by both conventional pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and matrix assisted pulsed …

Controlling the spatial arrangement of biomaterials, including living cells, with high
resolution (±5 μm) provides the foundation for fabricating complex biologic systems for …

A comparative study of thin film production based on gentle laser-ablation techniques has
been carried out with the luminescent polymer poly [2-methoxy-5-(2′-ethylhexyloxy)-1, 4 …

This review offers an evaluation of research on the thermal reactive modification of polymer
surfaces by infrared (IR) laser radiation with a major concern on highlighting and classifying …

Emulsion-based, resonant infrared matrix-assisted pulsed laser evaporation (RIR-MAPLE)
was used to deposit CdSe nanoparticle films and hybrid nanocomposite films comprising …

Research in semi‐crystalline polymer thin films has seen significant growth due to their
fascinating thermal, mechanical, and electronic properties. In all applications, acquiring …
