Abstract EN
Laser-induced color marking of metals, due to numerous advantages, including inter alia the high quality, resolution, durability, and noncontact methodology of surface marking, seems to be attractive for use in various applications.
In this method, the resulting color is mainly evident from the interference effect.
Therefore, one of the still unsolved problems on titanium is the color change after imposition of an additional layer (fingerprints, grease, etc.).
In this paper, a computer simulation based on the theoretical thin layers model was presented.
The results of the modeling study revealed that theoretically a thin protective coating of a known refractive index can be applied while still maintaining the target color.
In this case, as a protective layer, an amphiphobic coating has been taken into consideration with its ability to resist surface contamination.
The study was performed for titanium (grade 2).
The model utilizes the real data derived from the spectrophotometer, as well as from the ellipsometry measurements of laser-induced samples.
