Introduction What Is the Periodic Nanograting Structure? ❑ Nanomaterial: Is define as a material with structure size(in at least one dimension) in nanoscale(1 nm = 10 − 9 m). Nanoscale is refer to structure with length scale of 1 to 100 nm. ❑ Nanograting structure: It is kind of periodic structure has been observed on the surfaces of the materials after irradiating it with laser beam of different intensity. The first observation for the periodic nanograting structure was 1999. Periodic nanograting structures are one of the contemporary science issues that gained much attention in the last 20 years due to their vast usage in industrial applications. ❑ This structures is called LIPSS ( Laser Induced Periodic Surface Structures).
➔ LIPSS ( periodic nanograting structure) has following characteristics: ◆ The periodicity is usually less than laser wavelength. ◆ The groove direction is perpendicular and/or parallel to laser polarization direction. ➔ Periodic nanograting structure is produced by repeating irradiation of femt femtose osecond cond laser pulses with the intensity about 10 13 W/cm 2 or higher.
Interspaces of LIPSS were in the range of 0.5 λ L – 0.85 λ L Copper Dt = 100 fs d = 40 m m l = 800 nm Intensity ~ 10 13 W/cm 2 Courtesy to Prof. M. Hashida ? cm

Standing wave and Ponderomotive force ● The mechanism of surface plasma wave (SPW) y generation is based on the collective behavior of the excited electrons in the y-direction due to the electric field component of the laser beam. 𝜕 𝑡𝑞 = 𝜕 𝑀 e ● The bidirectional collective behavior of the E L electrons in both positive and negative y-axis, leads to SPW propagation near to the interface, x producing the so- called standing wave. The ponderomotive force of standing wave plays a major e role in forming seeds or tips for the development of periodic nanograting structures at early stages since it is repeated each 𝛍 sp /2 .
