title: Enhanced Absorptance of 45# Steel by Laser-Induced Periodic Surface Structures (LIPSS)
abstract: The absorptance of metals is often low within the visible and near-infrared band at room temperature. Increasing the absorption of metals plays a vital role in reducing energy consumption and production cost. After irradiation by 10 ns linearly polarized pulses with fluence close to the zero-probability damage threshold, the surface of 45# steel samples exhibited four kinds of surface structures in the spot area. The samples’ absorptance is improved by 38% when a high-quality laser-induced surfa
