Abstract
The radiation stability of polymer objects fabricated by direct laser writing is studied. Two groups of 6 cubes (m) were printed on a common silicon substrate, with laser power and slicing step uniformly varied from cube to cube in both groups. One group was X-rayed in the synchrotron radiation beam (12 keV, photons/mm/s, photons per each cube), another kept non-irradiated for the reference. The air kerma (2000 kGy) near cubes and the radiation dose absorbed in each cube (1.4 kGy) were calculated. The latter was verified using thermoluminescent detectors. The radiation effects were observed with a scanning electron microscope and with an optical 3D surface profilometer, also evaluated by Raman spectroscopy. An enhanced cross-linking in the polymer is the primary effect which may draw together the neighboring printed layers thus distorting the laser-printed object; distortions can be avoided by making objects with proper laser power and slicing step.
期刊介绍:
Section B of Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research covers all aspects of the interaction of energetic beams with atoms, molecules and aggregate forms of matter. This includes ion beam analysis and ion beam modification of materials as well as basic data of importance for these studies. Topics of general interest include: atomic collisions in solids, particle channelling, all aspects of collision cascades, the modification of materials by energetic beams, ion implantation, irradiation - induced changes in materials, the physics and chemistry of beam interactions and the analysis of materials by all forms of energetic radiation. Modification by ion, laser and electron beams for the study of electronic materials, metals, ceramics, insulators, polymers and other important and new materials systems are included. Related studies, such as the application of ion beam analysis to biological, archaeological and geological samples as well as applications to solve problems in planetary science are also welcome. Energetic beams of interest include atomic and molecular ions, neutrons, positrons and muons, plasmas directed at surfaces, electron and photon beams, including laser treated surfaces and studies of solids by photon radiation from rotating anodes, synchrotrons, etc. In addition, the interaction between various forms of radiation and radiation-induced deposition processes are relevant.
