Abstract
Ultrashort laser pulses represent a versatile tool that finds application in a variety of fields allowing precise and controlled modification of any kind of materials. The material surface modification, by inducing the formation of micro and nanostructures or providing chemical changes, or its functionalization with other materials, in form of nanoparticles, strongly affects the behavior and performances of such materials. The surface structuring and the synthesis and deposition of metallic nanoparticles has both been obtained by laser exposure. The two processes are performed consecutively, on hydroxyapatite sample surface. The synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) takes place on the sample surface, while immersed in a solution of silver nitrate (AgNO3), by laser-induced multiphoton photoreduction of silver ions (Ag+).
