 | Applications in Adhesion and Related Areas Eited by K.L. Mittal and Wei-Sheng Lei Series: Adhesion and Adhesives: Fundamental and Applied Aspects Copyright: 2018 | Status: Published ISBN: 9781119184935 | Hardcover | Price: $225 USD  |
One Line Description
While there are many books on laser technology, this is the only available book on the adhesion and interfacial perspectives.
Audience
This unique book should be of great interest to those in materials science, chemistry, physics and engineering. The information consolidated in this book should be of much value and relevance to R&D personnel engaged in adhesion and adhesive bonding, surface modification (both physical and chemical) for a legion of applications, polymer welding, cleaning, dentistry, device fabrication, micro and nanostructures formation, and unravelling thin film/substrate adhesion behavior.

Description
The acronym “Laser” is derived from Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. With the advent of the ruby laser in 1960, there has been tremendous research activity in developing novel, more versatile and more efficient laser sources or devices, as lasers applications are ubiquitous. Today, lasers are used in many areas of human endeavor and are routinely employed in a host of diverse fields: various branches of engineering, microelectronics, biomedical, medicine, dentistry, surgery, surface modification, to name just a few.
This book comprises 10 chapters from highly qualified academic researchers and industry specialists from companies such as NASA, Intel, Micron Technology, Applied Materials and focus on the application of lasers in adhesion and related areas. The topics covered include:
• Topographical modification of polymers and metals by laser ablation to create superhydrophobic surfaces;
• Non-ablative laser surface modification;
• Laser surface modification to enhance adhesion;
• Laser surface engineering of materials to modulate their wetting behavior;
• Laser surface modification in dentistry;
• Laser polymer welding;
• Laser based adhesion testing technique to measure thin film-substrate interface toughness;
• Laser surface removal of hard thin ceramic coatings;
• Laser removal of particles from surfaces;
• Laser induced thin film debonding for micro-device fabrication applications.
