“…These laser-induced structures are very important for producing functional surfaces of technological interest. The LISS have been realized in sub-diffraction limit processing [ 4 ], optics and photonics [ 4 , 7 , 8 , 9 ], modification of electronic properties and band structure engineering [ 10 ], energy conversion and storage [ 11 ], photovoltaics [ 3 ], sensors and actuators [ 11 , 12 , 13 ], medical implants and other biological applications [ 14 , 15 ], wettability transition [ 3 , 16 ], cryofouling avoidance [ 17 ], micropumps [ 18 ], and others. Although LISS are important in the drive for technological advancement, the knowledge of how these structures evolve and how to manipulate them is still limited.…”
