The aim of the proposed project is the development of novel technology based on a process of laser-liquid-solidinteraction (LLSI) in simulated body fluids (SBF) and its optimisation as a model of in vitro system for the controllable production of samples with hierarchically organized micro and nanometer scale surfaces, typical for nature. The process of LLSI is based on simultaneously microengineering of beforehand nanostructured substrate and growth of a layer of hydroxyapatite (HA) on the surface. The HAP layer will be used as implant coatings as well as a non viral carrier in the gene therapy of certain bone pathologies. For the implementation of the project the groupe is closely cooperated with a SME (Pulslight LTD, Sofia), ensures the laser system (copper bromide pulsed laser, equipped with a precise scanning system) necessary for the realization of the LLSI technology. Institute of Solid State Physics, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, 1784 Sofia, Bulgaria, 72 Tzarigradsko Chaussee blvd. METHOD FOR HYDROXYAPATITE GROWTH INDUCED BY THE PROCESS OF LASER-LIQUID-SOLID INTERACTION (LLSI) • The method of LLSI process employs a deposition system and a process, which allows interaction between a scanning laser beam and a liquid precursor solution (simulated body fluid, SBF), and also simultaneous laser illumination of the substrate during the laser-liquid interaction, thereby stimulating the nucleation and growth of hydroxyapatite (HA). • Variously modified surfaces serve as substrates for the HA growth, induced by a laser-liquid-solid interaction process.
