Laser micro structuring of strong metal and stainless steel to create replicative tools. The process of laser micro structuring is becoming more and more common in tool manufacturing. The key benefits of laser structuring are the small structure sizes and achievable surface rough nesses, in addition to maximum geometric and material freedom.
Surfaces can be micro structured very precisely using laser processing and an ultrashort pulse laser. The laser is appropriate for micrometer-accurate tool and ceramic machining, for roughening materials for bonding or joining processes, as well as for functionalizing surfaces, such as by reducing friction or resisting marking.
The substance in focus is vaporized by ultra-short pulse lasers because of their extremely high light intensity. The lack of melt or processing residues on the workpiece ensures a clean, post-processing-free processing.
As a result, micromachining by laser ablation has a great technical potential and is already applied in numerous fields.
The Global Laser micro structuring machine accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Applications of direct femtosecond laser surface nano/micro structuring. new uses for direct femtosecond laser surface nano/micro structuring.
Due to its flexibility, simplicity, and controllability in producing various types of nano/microstructures suitable for a wide range of applications, direct femtosecond laser surface processing has distinguished itself from other conventional laser ablation methods and turned into one of the best ways to create surface structures at nano- and micro-scales on metals and semiconductors.
Recently, significant progress has been achieved in using this approach to modify the optical characteristics of metals and semiconductors.
As a result, highly absorbent metals and semiconductors known as “black metals” and “black silicon” were produced. Furthermore, structural coloring on metals has been used to produce hues other than black.
Moreover, novel materials with wetting characteristics ranging from super hydrophilic to superhydrophobic can be created via direct femtosecond laser processing. Super wicking materials, which can make liquids stream vertically uphill against gravity over a large surface area, have been developed in the most severe scenario.
