Abstract:Laser surface texturing (LST) is a rapid single-step method for surface functionalization. Different micro and nanoscale structures can be fabricated by controlling the laser parameters, ambient conditions, and material properties. In this work, we investigated the role of laser scanning speed in the morphological and optical properties of nanosecond laser textured silicon surfaces. Keeping the laser flounce just above the threshold, we controlled the laser scanning speed in the range 50-100 μm/s to monitor th… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
