Direct Laser Interference Patterning

Fast laser-based methods for fabricating microstructures on polymers, metals, ceramics and coatings can be used to generate surface functions over large areas. In addition to the topography, the electrical, chemical and mechanical properties can also be varied periodically. These structured surfaces can be used in biotechnology, battery technology, photonics and tribology.
