Abstract
Generation of laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) is investigated with femtosecond laser pulses with 1030nm wavelength and its second and its harmonics. The second (λ2ω = 515nm) and third harmonics (λ3ω = 343nm) beams in addition to their combination were utilized to control the period of the LIPSS on a Ni surface. The resulting periodicity of the formed structures was ∼ 0.42μm, 0.22μm, and 0.33μm respectively for the second harmonic beam, third harmonic beam, and their combination. This method demonstrates a direct way to control the periodicities on a metal target by employing an individual laser beam wavelength to induce a variable range of LIPSS periods.
