Abstract:Samples ofMakrofol films were exposed to different laser fluences (2-18 J/cm 2 ). X-ray diffraction (XRD) and ultraviolet spectroscopy (UVs) techniques were used to explore the resultant effect of laser radiation on the structure and optical characteristics of the Makrofol polymer. The change of refractive index (n) and the optical band gap (Eg) with the laser fluence was interpreted. A reduction in the Eg values (3.08-2.54 electron volt) was observed when raising the laser fluence up to 18 J/cm 2 . This was a… Show more
