Abstract
Periodic and stable micropatterns appeared on the surface of amorphous polyethersulfone etched with an excimer laser at 308 nm in ambient air and a vacuum. The control of such radiative conditions as fluence and incident angle enables us to modify the spacing and pattern of the microstructures. A topographical investigation with scanning electron microscopy and an experiment with x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to determine its composition is reported.Keywords
