Laser-induced Micro- and Nanostructures on Ti-alloy Cylinders for Reduced Adhesion of Biological Cells — •Peter Fosodeder1, Johannes Heitz1, Agnes Weth2, and Werner Baumgartner2 — 1Institute of Applied Physics, Johannes Kepler University Linz, Altenberger Straße 69, 4040 Linz, Austria — 2Institute of Biomedical Mechatronics, Johannes Kepler University Linz, Altenberger Straße 69, 4040 Linz, Austria
Irradiation of cylindrical Ti-alloy samples with a Ti:sapphire fs-laser results in the formation of self-organized micro- and nanostructures, i.e., sharp cones or spikes covered by fine sub-wavelength ripples. The motivation of this work is to create a structured ring on a small cylinder with cell-repellent properties, similar as we demonstrated recently for flat substrates [1]. We aim to create such structures on a miniaturized implantable pacemaker to avoid tissue growth around the device.
