“…Almost 20 years ago, the potential of LIPSS for tribological applications was recognized: Yu and Lu reported an improved tribological performance of micrometer sized ripples on NiP (a support material for magnetic data storage elements in computer hard drives), when compared to the flat NiP surface [ 43 ]. In the following years, LIPSS were generated by ultrashort laser pulses on various materials and tested with respect to friction and wear, for instance for nitrides [ 44 , 45 ], carbon materials [ 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 ], semiconductors [ 52 ], and metals [ 12 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 ]. Several specific applications were explored, such as the improvement of mechanical seals [ 50 , 51 ], or the optimization of the machining performance of cutting tools [ 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 ].…”

Laser texturing is an emerging technology for generating surface functionalities on basis of optical, mechanical, or chemical properties. Taking benefit of laser sources with ultrashort (fs) pulse durations features outstanding precision of machining and negligible rims or burrs surrounding the laser-irradiation zone. Consequently, additional mechanical or chemical post-processing steps are usually not required for fs-laser surface texturing (fs-LST). This work aimed to provide a bridge between research in the field of tribology and laser materials processing. The paper reviews the current state-of-the-art in fs-LST, with a focus on the tribological performance (friction and wear) of specific self-organized surface structures (so-called ripples, grooves, and spikes) on steel and titanium alloys. On the titanium alloy, specific sickle-shaped hybrid micro-nanostructures were also observed and tribologically tested. Care is taken to identify accompanying effects affecting the materials hardness, superficial oxidation, nano- and microscale topographies, and the role of additives contained in lubricants, such as commercial engine oil.

“…Compared to other techniques, laser structuring provides significant advantages including fast machining time, environment friendly, precise control of the geometric features of the patterns, and so on. Especially, the ultrashort pulsed laser with pulse width ranging from picosecond to femtosecond is one of the most promising ways to achieve micromachining in the field of tribological applications [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37], which is owing to its ultrashort pulse width and ultrahigh peak power that can process almost all materials. Moreover, ultrashort pulsed lasers are expected to minimize the melt ejection and heat-affected effects for surface texturing in tribological applications.…”

Surface texturing as a means for controlling tribological properties of mechanical components is well known for many years. Various technologies have been developed for surface texturing. Among them, ultrashort pulsed laser surface texturing is one of the most promising ways to achieve micromachining in the field of tribological applications. Ultrashort pulsed laser technology can produce various micro-/nanostructures on the material surfaces to modulate their tribological properties. The aim of this chapter is to introduce the recent progress on ultrashort pulsed laser-induced frictional property change of metals and to demonstrate the potential applications of ultrashort pulsed laser-induced frictional property change of metal in various fields.
