Micropatterning MoS2/Polyamide Electrospun Nanofibrous Membranes Using Femtosecond Laser Pulses
摘要： The capability of modifying and patterning the surface of polymer and composite materials is of high significance for various biomedical and electronics applications. For example, the use of femtosecond (fs) laser ablation for micropatterning electrospun nanofiber scaffolds can be successfully employed to fabricate complex polymeric biomedical devices, including scaffolds. Here we investigated fs-laser ablation as a flexible and convenient method for micropatterning polyamide (PA6) electrospun nanofibers that were modified with molybdenum disulfide (MoS2). We studied the influence of the laser pulse energy and scanning speed on the topography of electrospun composite nanofibers, as well as the irradiated areas via scanning electron microscopy and spectroscopic techniques. The results showed that using the optimal fs-laser parameters, micropores were formed on the electrospun nanofibrous membranes with size scale control, while the nature of the nanofibers was preserved. MoS2-modified PA6 nanofibrous membranes showed good photoluminescence properties, even after fs-laser microstructuring. The results presented here demonstrated potential application in optoelectronic devices. In addition, the application of this technique has a great deal of potential in the biomedical field, such as in tissue engineering.

Microstructure and Characteristic of Biomedical Titanium Alloy Based on Picosecond Laser Micromachining
摘要： Laser micromachining has become a hotspot in recent years due to its high precision, non-contact and adjustable parameter. In this paper, TC4 titanium alloy implant samples were conducted to obtain specific surface textures through picosecond laser. The laser parameters which directly influenced the microstructure and characteristic of surface textures were optimized within the context of laser power, scanning speed and scanning number via response surface methodology. The microstructure was evaluated using scanning electron microscope (SEM) while the feature size of the surface textures was measured through surface 3D profiler. In addition, endothelial cell culture was conducted to investigate the biofunctionalization of samples with specific surface textures. It demonstrated that well-structured textures played an important role in promoting cell adhesion and proliferation for titanium alloy implants.

Live E. coli bacteria label-free sensing using a microcavity in-line Mach-Zehnder interferometer
摘要： The paper presents the first study to date on selective label-free biosensing with a microcavity in-line Mach-Zehnder interferometer induced in an optical fiber. The sensing structures were fabricated in a single-mode fiber by femtosecond laser micromachining. In contrast to other studies of this sensing scheme, where only the sensitivity to refractive index changes in the cavity was investigated, this research used chemical surface treatment of the sensor to ensure detection specificity. Immobilized MS2 bacteriophages were applied as recognition elements specifically targeting live E. coli C3000 bacteria. It is shown that the sensor allows for real-time monitoring of biological phenomena taking place on the surface of the microcavity. The developed biosensor exhibits ultrahigh refractive index sensitivity of 15,000 nm/RIU and is capable of detecting live E. coli bacteria concentrations as low as 100 colony forming units (CFU)/mL in liquid volume as low as picoliters.

Deep and high precision cutting of alumina ceramics by picosecond laser
摘要： Ceramics possess high thermal and chemical resistance, low density, and high compressive strength; however, the machining complications imposed by their inherent brittleness limit their range of applications. Laser cutting technology can offer an automated manufacturing technique for machining these brittle materials. In this paper, a laser cutting method, so-called wobbling, was developed for performing deep, high precision, and defect-free laser cutting of industrial grade alumina ceramics. This work explored picosecond laser process parameters such as focal position, linear speed, and wobble amplitude in order to control cut depth and optimize cut quality in terms of kerf width, kerf taper, surface cleanness, while avoiding crack formation. The morphology and cut quality were evaluated using 3D laser scanning microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Picosecond laser cutting process parameters were optimized, achieving a maximum material removal rate of ~10 mm3/min. It was shown that the laser cutting process developed via these experiments represents an effective and efficient manufacturing tool that can be incorporated in engineered net shaping systems.

[Laser Institute of America ICALEO?? 2016: 35th International Congress on Applications of Lasers & Electro-Optics - San Diego, California, USA (October 16a??20, 2016)] International Congress on Applications of Lasers & Electro-Optics - Enhanced drilling of transparent materials with ultrashort pulses
摘要： Ablative processes for transparent materials processing still remains a hot topic, as current techniques still have their limitations in ablation rates and quality, particularly for features on the order of a millimeter or less. In this publication, we present results of recent work on laser micromachining of sapphire with ultrashort pulsed lasers in the sub-picosecond regime. We accomplish this by using bottom-up processing with laser ablation, which has demonstrated the ability to generate zero-taper features with relatively high aspect ratios (>1:1) in many transparent materials. In previous work with <1ps (1030nm) sources, we have demonstrated the ability to drill ≤250μm diameter holes in 430μm thick c-plane sapphire. Here, we extend the scope of this work to examine additional methods and laser parameters presented here. In particular we examine the benefits of frequency conversion to 515nm wavelength, allowing smaller spots and higher fluence levels is compared to trials at the fundamental wavelength. We find no compelling differences in minimum achievable taper or drilling time for processes with 1030nm vs. 515nm performed with similar fluences, but the smaller spot size and increased fluence afforded with 515nm light allows for faster bottom-up drilling. Additionally, we test the effects of water-assisted processing by placing the sapphire wafer in contact with a water bath for better extraction of particulate matter during processing. Processes with a water bath are found to allow holes with 2° taper to be drilled in ≤5 seconds, which is a decrease in cycle time of ≥50% for holes with ≤2° taper in air.

Digitization for Highly Accurate 3D Laser Processing of Customera??specific Tools
摘要： Cutting tool manufacturing by laser technology has developed quickly during the past fifteen years. Compared to conventional machining methods such as grinding or eroding, laser processing does not require any additional elements such as coolant, grinding wheels, erosion wire, discs, etc. If ultrashort laser pulses are used together with optimized laser parameters, heat input into the material can be negligible. Additionally, there are no processing forces or tool wear present during laser manufacturing. For these many reasons, autonomous production of metallic or diamond tools is feasible and highly interesting.

Investigation of a Bragg Grating-Based Fabrya??Perot Structure Inscribed Using Femtosecond Laser Micromachining in an Adiabatic Fiber Taper
摘要： This paper presents the fabrication of a fiber Bragg grating (FBG)-based Fabry–Perot (FP) structure (7 mm total length) in an adiabatic fiber taper, investigates its strain and temperature characteristics, and compares the sensing characteristics with a standard polyimide coated FBG sensor. Firstly, a simulation of the said structure is presented, followed by the fabrication of an adiabatic fiber taper having the outer diameter reduced to 70 μm (core diameter to 4.7 μm). Next, the sensing structure, composed of two identical uniform FBG spaced apart by a small gap, is directly inscribed point-by-point using infrared femtosecond laser (fs-laser) micromachining. Lastly, the strain and temperature behavior for a range up to 3400 με and 225 ?C, respectively, are investigated for the fabricated sensor and the FBG, and compared. The fabricated sensor attains a higher strain sensitivity (2.32 pm/με) than the FBG (0.73 pm/με), while both the sensors experience similar sensitivity to temperature (8.85 pm/?C). The potential applications of such sensors include continuous health monitoring where precise strain detection is required.

Laser Micromachining of Lithium Niobate-Based Resonant Sensors towards Medical Devices Applications
摘要： This paper presents a micromachining process for lithium niobate (LiNbO3) material for the rapid prototyping of a resonant sensor design for medical devices applications. Laser micromachining was used to fabricate samples of lithium niobate material. A qualitative visual check of the surface was performed using scanning electron microscopy. The surface roughness was quantitatively investigated using an optical surface profiler. A surface roughness of 0.526 μm was achieved by laser micromachining. The performance of the laser-micromachined sensor has been examined in different working environments and different modes of operation. The sensor exhibits a Quality-factor (Q-factor) of 646 in a vacuum; and a Q-factor of 222 in air. The good match between the modelling and experimental results shows that the laser-micromachined sensor has a high potential to be used as a resonance biosensor.

Experimental study on two-phase boiling in wavy copper microchannels fabricated with ultrafast laser micromachining
摘要： In this study, the sinusoidal wavy (SW) copper microchannels with triangular cross section were fabricated with the ultrafast laser micromachining approach. The flow boiling of de-ionized water in SW microchannel were experimentally studied under mass fluxes of 43.43-217.15 kg/(m2s) and heat fluxes of 0-590 kW/m2. The flow patterns in the SW microchannels were visually observed and the boiling heat transfer characteristics were analyzed based on the obtained data. It shows the SW microchannel has a maximum enhancement of 127.7% in local heat transfer coefficient with an acceptable increase of pressure loss compared to the straight one in present work. In SW microchannel, a low degree of superheat can trigger the onset of nucleate boiling. A slow decreasing tendency of local heat transfer coefficient under a high effective heat flux or a high vapor quality was observed. The heat transfer mechanism of flow boiling in SW microchannel was analyzed based on the experimental visualization. Nucleate boiling and thin film evaporation are the dominant modes under different thermal boundary conditions. The flow boiling instability phenomenon in microchannels can be diminished using the wavy structures.

Femtosecond Laser-Micromachining of Glass Micro-Chip for High Order Harmonic Generation in Gases
摘要： We report on the application of femtosecond laser micromachining to the fabrication of complex glass microdevices, for high-order harmonic generation in gas. The three-dimensional capabilities and extreme flexibility of femtosecond laser micromachining allow us to achieve accurate control of gas density inside the micrometer interaction channel. This device gives a considerable increase in harmonics’ generation efficiency if compared with traditional harmonic generation in gas jets. We propose different chip geometries that allow the control of the gas density and driving field intensity inside the interaction channel to achieve quasi phase-matching conditions in the harmonic generation process. We believe that these glass micro-devices will pave the way to future downscaling of high-order harmonic generation beamlines.
