Abstract
Nanoscale or microscale surface texturing is an effective technique to tailor the tribological properties between two surfaces that are rubbed against each other. In order to achieve the desired frictional properties by a patterned surface, one needs an in-depth understanding of the underlying mechanisms. Here, we demonstrate anisotropic stick-slip friction achieved via a nanotextured surface of tilted titania nanorods (TiNRs). The surface was developed by using the glancing angle deposition (GLAD) technique, and exhibited load-dependent variations in stick-slip friction as well as frictional anisotropy in different sliding directions. For studying the frictional properties of the newly developed surface, lateral force microscopy (LFM) was performed in three different reciprocal orientations (0° rotated, 45° rotated, 90° rotated) using a custom-made colloidal alumina atomic force microscopy (AFM) probe. The frictional behavior was found to vary significantly with the orientation. At 0° rotated position) a prominent "stick-slip" was observed when scanning opposite to the tilt direction, whereas the phenomenon reduced significantly when the nanotextured surface was scanned along the tilt direction or rotated to different angles (45 and 90°) with respect to the sliding direction of the AFM cantilever supporting the probe. The experimental findings were interpreted based on the classical solution for large deflections of tilted elastic rods. Overall, the textured surface, LFM-based frictional measurement, and the quantitative analysis presented here provide a fundamental understanding of how friction can be significantly varied on a surface patterned with tilted TiNRs at a length scale of about 1 μm, which can be comprehensively applied to nanorod patterns of other materials on different substrates.

Study on Surface Roughness, Morphology, and Wettability of Laser-Modified Powder Metallurgy-Processed Ti-Graphite Composite Intended for Dental Application. Bioengineering (Basel) 2023; 10:1406.

Abstract
In this study, the surface laser treatment of a new type of dental biomaterial, a Ti-graphite composite, prepared by low-temperature powder metallurgy, was investigated. Different levels of output laser power and the scanning speed of the fiber nanosecond laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm and argon as a shielding gas were used in this experiment. The surface integrity of the machined surfaces was evaluated to identify the potential for the dental implant's early osseointegration process, including surface roughness parameter documentation by contact and non-contact methods, surface morphology assessment by scanning electron microscopy, and surface wettability estimation using the sessile drop technique. The obtained results showed that the surface roughness parameters attributed to high osseointegration relevance (Rsk, Rku, and Rsm) were not significantly influenced by laser power, and on the other hand, the scanning speed seems to have the most prevalent effect on surface roughness when exhibiting statistical differences in all evaluated profile roughness parameters except Rvk. The obtained laser-modified surfaces were hydrophilic, with a contact angle in the range of 62.3° to 83.2°.

In Vitro Biofilm Formation on Zirconia Implant Surfaces Treated with Femtosecond and Nanosecond Lasers. J Funct Biomater 2023; 14:486. [PMID: 37888151 PMCID: PMC10607745 DOI: 10.3390/jfb14100486] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 09/18/2023] [Accepted: 09/21/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate how a zirconia implant surface treated with laser technology affects the degree of biofilm formation. (2) Methods: Experimental titanium (Ti) disks were produced that were sandblasted with large grit and acid-etched (T), and they were compared with zirconia (ZrO2) discs with a machined (M) surface topography; a hydrophilic surface topography with a femtosecond laser (HF); and a hydrophobic surface topography with a nanosecond laser (HN) (N = 12 per surface group). An in vitro three-species biofilm sample (Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (Aa), Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg), Prevotella intermedia (Pi)) was applied to each disc type, and bacterial adhesion was assessed after 48 and 72 h of incubation using an anaerobic flow chamber model. Statistical significance was determined using the Kruskal-Wallis H test, with Bonferroni correction used for the post-hoc test (α = 0.05). (3) Results: Compared to the T group, the M group exhibited more than twice as many viable bacterial counts in the three-species biofilm samples (p < 0.05). In comparison to the T group, the HF group had significantly higher viable bacterial counts in certain biofilm samples at 48 h (Aa and Pi) and 72 h (Pi) (p < 0.05). The HN group had higher viable bacterial counts in Pi at 48 h (5400 CFU/mL, p < 0.05) than the T group (4500 CFU/mL), while showing significantly lower viable bacterial counts in Pg at both 48 (3010 CFU/mL) and 72 h (3190 CFU/mL) (p < 0.05). (4) Conclusions: The surface treatment method for zirconia discs greatly influences biofilm formation. Notably, hydrophobic surface treatment using a nanosecond laser was particularly effective at inhibiting Pg growth.

Abstract
Laser processing is a simple way to obtain hydrophobic or even superhydrophobic properties of metal surfaces. However, preparation of superhydrophilic surfaces by this method, the properties of which do not change under the influence of various factors, remains a difficult task. In this work, we show that with increasing laser power, the degree of oxidation of the treated metal surface also increases. As a result, highly oxidized samples showed highly stable superhydrophilic properties. A Janus membrane fabricated from a stainless steel mesh with asymmetric hydrophilic-hydrophobic wettability demonstrated stable water diode properties. In addition, it was found that during the examination of sample surfaces by Raman spectroscopy, organic compounds adsorbed on the hydrophobic surface were decomposed by the laser of the spectrometer, which imposes limitations on the laser power when using this method in characterizing hydrophobic surfaces of metals fabricated by laser processing.

Influence of Dental Titanium Implants with Different Surface Treatments Using Femtosecond and Nanosecond Lasers on Biofilm Formation. J Funct Biomater 2023; 14:297.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the impact of different surface treatments (machined; sandblasted, large grit, and acid-etched (SLA); hydrophilic; and hydrophobic) on dental titanium (Ti) implant surface morphology, roughness, and biofilm formation. Four groups of Ti disks were prepared using distinct surface treatments, including femtosecond and nanosecond lasers for hydrophilic and hydrophobic treatments. Surface morphology, wettability, and roughness were assessed. Biofilm formation was evaluated by counting the colonies of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (Aa), Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg), and Prevotella intermedia (Pi) at 48 and 72 h. Statistical analysis was conducted to compare the groups using the Kruskal-Wallis H test and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test (α = 0.05). The analysis revealed that the hydrophobic group had the highest surface contact angle and roughness (p < 0.05), whereas the machined group had significantly higher bacterial counts across all biofilms (p < 0.05). At 48 h, the lowest bacterial counts were observed in the SLA group for Aa and the SLA and hydrophobic groups for Pg and Pi. At 72 h, low bacterial counts were observed in the SLA, hydrophilic, and hydrophobic groups. The results indicate that various surface treatments affect implant surface properties, with the hydrophobic surface using femtosecond laser treatment exerting a particularly inhibitory effect on initial biofilm growth (Pg and Pi).
