In-depth optical characterization of poly(3-hexylthiophene) after formation of nanosecond laser-induced periodic surface structures†
Abstract
Herein, poly(3-hexylthiophene) films with periodic wavy surface structures are generated upon laser irradiation at a wavelength of 530 nm using a pulse duration of 5 ns and a repetition frequency of 10 Hz. The optical properties of the films irradiated with 1200, 3000, and 6000 pulses, respectively, are studied using various techniques.
