Regulation of cell locomotion by nanosecond-laser-induced hydroxyapatite patterning.

ABSTRACT: Hydroxyapatite, an essential mineral in human bones composed mainly of calcium and phosphorus, is widely used to coat bone graft and implant surfaces for enhanced biocompatibility and bone formation. For a strong implant-bone bond, the bone-forming cells must not only adhere to the implant surface but also move to the surface requiring bone formation. However, strong adhesion tends to inhibit cell migration on the surface of hydroxyapatite. Herein, a cell migration highway pattern that can promote cell migration was prepared using a nanosecond laser on hydroxyapatite coating. The developed surface promoted bone-forming cell movement compared with the unpatterned hydroxyapatite surface, and the cell adhesion and movement speed could be controlled by adjusting the pattern width. Live-cell microscopy, cell tracking, and serum protein analysis revealed the fundamental principle of this phenomenon. These findings are applicable to hydroxyapatite-coated biomaterials and can be implemented easily by laser patterning without complicated processes. The cell migration highway can promote and control cell movement while maintaining the existing advantages of hydroxyapatite coatings. Furthermore, it can be applied to the surface treatment of not only implant materials directly bonded to bone but also various implanted biomaterials implanted that require cell movement control.

Straightforward Patterning of Functional Polymers by Sequential Nanosecond Pulsed Laser Irradiation.

Project description:Laser-based methods have demonstrated to be effective in the fabrication of surface micro- and nanostructures, which have a wide range of applications, such as cell culture, sensors or controlled wettability. One laser-based technique used for micro- and nanostructuring of surfaces is the formation of laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS). LIPSS are formed upon repetitive irradiation at fluences well below the ablation threshold and in particular, linear structures are formed in the case of irradiation with linearly polarized laser beams. In this work, we report on the simple fabrication of a library of ordered nanostructures in a polymer surface by repeated irradiation using a nanosecond pulsed laser operating in the UV and visible region in order to obtain nanoscale-controlled functionality. By using a combination of pulses at different wavelengths and sequential irradiation with different polarization orientations, it is possible to obtain different geometries of nanostructures, in particular linear gratings, grids and arrays of nanodots. We use this experimental approach to nanostructure the semiconductor polymer poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and the ferroelectric copolymer poly[(vinylidenefluoride-co-trifluoroethylene] (P(VDF-TrFE)) since nanogratings in semiconductor polymers, such as P3HT and nanodots, in ferroelectric systems are viewed as systems with potential applications in organic photovoltaics or non-volatile memories.

Quantitative Evaluation of Nanosecond Pulsed Laser-Induced Photomodification of Plasmonic Gold Nanoparticles.

Project description:The rapid growth of gold nanoparticle applications in laser therapeutics and diagnostics has brought about the need for establishing innovative standardized test methods for evaluation of safety and performance of these technologies and related medical products. Furthermore, given the incomplete and inconsistent data on nanoparticle photomodification thresholds provided in the literature, further elucidation of processes that impact the safety and effectiveness of laser-nanoparticle combination products is warranted. Therefore, we present a proof-of-concept study on an analytical experimental test methodology including three approaches (transmission electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, and spectrophotometry) for experimental evaluation of damage thresholds in nanosecond pulsed laser-irradiated gold nanospheres, and compared our results with a theoretical model and prior studies. This thorough evaluation of damage threshold was performed based on irradiation with a 532?nm nanosecond-pulsed laser over a range of nanoparticle diameters from 20 to 100?nm. Experimentally determined damage thresholds were compared to a theoretical heat transfer model of pulsed laser-irradiated nanoparticles and found to be in reasonably good agreement, although some significant discrepancies with prior experimental studies were found. This study and resultant dataset represent an important foundation for developing a standardized test methodology for determination of laser-induced nanoparticle damage thresholds.

Coulomb Explosion in Nanosecond Laser Fields.

Project description:We report experimental observations of Coulomb explosion using a nanosecond laser at 532 nm with intensities less than 1012 W/cm2. We observe multiply charged atomic ions Arn+ (1 ≤ n ≤ 7) and Cn+ (1 ≤ n ≤ 4) from argon clusters doped with molecules containing aromatic chromophores. The yield of Arn+ depends on the size of the cluster, the number density, and the photostability of the dopant. We propose that resonant absorption of ArN+ achieves a high degree of ionization, and the highly positively charged cluster has the capability to strip electrons from the evaporating Ar+ on the surface of the cluster prior to Coulomb explosion, forming Arn+.

Multi-wavelength growth of nanosecond laser-induced surface damage on fused silica gratings.

Project description:The nanosecond laser-induced damage growth phenomenon on the exit surface of fused silica grating is investigated at 1064?nm and 355?nm separately and also simultaneously. Experiments are first carried out on damage sites on a plane fused silica sample showing two different morphologies, and a damage type is selected for ensuring the repeatability of the subsequent tests. Comparing the mono-wavelength growth results on a grating and a plane fused silica sample, the periodic surface structure is found to be an aggravating factor for damage growth. This is highly supported by calculations of the enhancement of the optical electric field intensity thanks to Finite-Difference Time-Domain simulations. Finally, the mono-wavelength results enable us to quantify a coupling occurring in the multi-wavelength configuration, which could originate from the heating of the plasma (more likely produced in the ultraviolet) preferentially by the infrared pulse. This study provides interesting results about the involvement of the surface topography in damage growth, and paves the way towards the comprehension of this phenomenon at high-energy nanosecond laser facilities where fused silica gratings are simultaneously irradiated at several wavelengths.

Single shot laser writing with sub-nanosecond and nanosecond bursts of femtosecond pulses.

Project description:A method is proposed for efficient laser modification of fused silica and sapphire by means of a burst of femtosecond pulses having time separation in the range 10-3000?ps. Modification enhancement with the pulse separation increase in the burst was observed on the tens picoseconds scale. It is proposed that accumulated transient tensile strain in the excitation region plays a crucial role in modification by a sub-nanosecond burst.

Nanosecond laser coloration on stainless steel surface.

Project description:In this work, we present laser coloration on 304 stainless steel using nanosecond laser. Surface modifications are tuned by adjusting laser parameters of scanning speed, repetition rate, and pulse width. A comprehensive study of the physical mechanism leading to the appearance is presented. Microscopic patterns are measured and employed as input to simulate light-matter interferences, while chemical states and crystal structures of composites to figure out intrinsic colors. Quantitative analysis clarifies the final colors and RGB values are the combinations of structural colors and intrinsic colors from the oxidized pigments, with the latter dominating. Therefore, the engineering and scientific insights of nanosecond laser coloration highlight large-scale utilization of the present route for colorful and resistant steels.

Model Development for Nanosecond Laser-Induced Damage Caused by Manufacturing-Induced Defects on Potassium Dihydrogen Phosphate Crystals.

Project description:Nanosecond laser-induced damage on (potassium dihydrogen phosphate) KDP crystals is a complex process, which involves coupled actions of multi-physics fields. However, the mechanisms governing the laser damage behaviors have not been fully understood and there have been no available models to accurately describe this complex process. In this work, based on the theories of electromagnetic, thermodynamic, and hydrodynamic fields, a coupled multi-physics model is developed to describe the transient behavior of laser-supported energy deposition and diffusion accompanied by the surface defect (e.g., surface cracks)-initiated laser damage process. It is found that the light intensification caused by the defects near the crystal surface plays a significant role in triggering the laser-induced damage, and a large amount of energy is quickly deposited via the light intensity-activated nonlinear excitation. Using the developed model, the maximum temperature of the crystal material irradiated by a 3 ns pulse laser is calculated, which agrees well with previously reported experimental results. Furthermore, the modeling results suggest that physical processes such as material melting, boiling, and flowing have effects on the evolution of the laser damage process. In addition, the experimentally measured morphology of laser damage sites exhibits damage features of boiling cores, molten regions, and fracture zones, which are direct evidence of bowl-shaped high-temperature expansion predicted by the model. These results well validate that the proposed coupled multi-physics model is competent to describe the dynamic behaviors of laser damage, which can serve as a powerful tool to understand the general mechanisms of laser interactions with KDP optical crystals in the presence of different defects.

From Femtosecond to Nanosecond Laser Microstructuring of Conical Aluminum Surfaces by Reactive Gas Assisted Laser Ablation.

Project description:A conical microstructure is one of the most versatile surface textures obtained by ultrashort laser micromachining. Besides an increased surface area, unique surface properties such as superhydrophilicity, increased absorptivity; and thermal emissivity can be tailored. On metals, usually ultrashort laser pulses in the femtosecond to low picosecond range are used to obtain these surface structures, whereas nanosecond laser pulses favor melting processes. Herein, we report on an investigation of reactive gas atmospheres such as oxygen, steam, and halogens during laser micromachining of aluminum with 6 ns laser pulses. At a reduced pressure of 20 hPa (air) with additional iodine vapor as reactive species, we found a perfectly microconical structured surface to be formed with nanosecond laser pulses. The resulting surface structures were proven to be free of residual halogens. The application of nanosecond instead of femtosecond laser pulses for the surface structuring process allows to apply significantly less complex laser sources.

Three-dimensional direct cell patterning in collagen hydrogels with near-infrared femtosecond laser.

Project description:We report a methodology for three-dimensional (3D) cell patterning in a hydrogel in situ. Gold nanorods within a cell-encapsulating collagen hydrogel absorb a focused near-infrared femtosecond laser beam, locally denaturing the collagen and forming channels, into which cells migrate, proliferate, and align in 3D. Importantly, pattern resolution is tunable based on writing speed and laser power, and high cell viability (>90%) is achieved using higher writing speeds and lower laser intensities. Overall, this patterning technique presents a flexible direct-write method that is applicable in tissue engineering systems where 3D alignment is critical (such as vascular, neural, cardiac, and muscle tissue).
