Project description
Innovative laser system for advanced surface structures
Bio-inspired surface structures provide significant commercial potential for the design of functionalised surfaces to meet the demands of industrial markets. Laser surface texturing has previously been demonstrated as able to acquire advanced functionalities. The EU-funded LAMPAS project will increase the potential for laser structuring for the design of recently functionalised surfaces, increasing efficiency, flexibility and productivity. The project relies on the development of a high-power ultrashort laser system, strategies and concepts for beam supply to be realised by combining the characteristics of direct laser interference patterning and polygon scanner processing laser technologies. The results of the project will offer the European industry a cost-effective and robust technology to produce a wide range of functional surfaces.
Objective
Current industrial markets demand highly value added products offering new features at a low-cost. Bio-inspired surface structures, containing features in the nanometer/micrometer scales, offer significant commercial potential for the creation of functionalized surfaces. In this aim technologies to modify surfaces instead of creating composites or spreading coatings on surfaces can offer new industrial opportunities. In particular, laser surface texturing, has shown to be capable to obtain advanced functionalities, especially when sources operating at pulse durations of nanosecond (short) and picosecond and femtosecond (ultra short) are used. LAMPAS will significantly increase the potential of laser structuring for the design of newly functionalized surfaces by enhancing the efficiency, flexibility and productivity (over 1 m²/min) of the process based on the development of a high power ultra-short laser system as well as strategies and concepts for beam delivery. This will be performed by combining the outstanding characteristics of two laser technologies, being Direct Laser Interference Patterning and Polygon Scanner processing. The expected results to be obtained in this project will provide the European industry with a cost effective and robust technology, capable of producing a broad range of functional surfaces on large areas at outstanding throughputs, bringing Europe a chance to lead in this key area of surface treatment. LAMPAS consortium covers the full value chain for laser surface texturing and has access to demanding markets. In addition, an in-line surface characterisation to enable rapid feedback about the target topography as well as to control surface temperature during the laser process will be included.
