Article Synopsis
  • The study examines how different laser pulse numbers and durations affect the formation of periodic surface structures on silicon carbide (SiC) substrates.
  • As the number of laser pulses increases, surface structures transition from roughness with nanoparticles to laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) that have periods shorter than the laser wavelength.
  • Crucially, maintaining the crystallinity of the surface is essential for achieving these transformations, as longer pulse widths can prevent LIPSS formation due to poly-crystallization of the irradiated area.
