Surface texturing and structuring of materials at the micro and nano scales is a attractive topic for advanced technologies and life applications in a variety of fields including energy harvesting, functional surfaces, medicine, as well as bio and eco-systems. Laser Induced Periodical Surface Structures (LIPSS) at the heart of several projects conducted throughout many European and international institutions and research labs. LIPSS items under various scientific journals databases show a consistently growing trend in surface structuring. Following a hiatus of a couple of years due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are glad to announce the 10th Int. LIPSS Workshop that aims at welcoming all scientists from the laser community (and those from the ion/electron beams community are also welcomed!) to share recent progress in LIPSS formation and surface structuring mechanisms through experimental and theoretical approaches. With the technical assistance and support of theUniversity of Orléans, the CNRS, and the Studium, Orléans will offer a beautiful and stimulating environment for the success of this workshop.

SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES
Following the previous editions in Saint-Etienne (2017), Bochum (2018) and Ljubljana (2019), the tenth LIPSS Workshop in Orléans will be especially devoted to recent progress and studies on mechanisms formation, considering a wide range of materials (polymers, oxides, metal alloys and compounds, carbon hybrid surfaces...) using various laser sources from short to ultra-short beams pulses. The workshop will also tackle various facets of the science and technology of LIPSS, starting with fundamentals and extending to more applied aspects such as large area processing as well as real-life applications and potential implementation in an industrial setting.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This workshop is intended for all researchers, scientists and students working on LIPSS formation in European and international universities, research centers and institutes as well as in the private sector. Attendees will have the opportunity to bring their questions to leaders in the field of laser-matter interaction for material processing. The workshop will take place in person to provide maximum interaction between participants.

The workshop is free of charge and registration includes coffee breaks, lunches and the workshop’s Gala dinner.
