Abstract
The laser cleaning effect can be affected by many parameters, including laser power, scanning speed, laser repetition rate, and pulse duration, and the cleaning effect with these parameters is investigated. It is found that the cleaning effect is negligible for an infrared high-repetition nanosecond-pulsed laser with repetition rate from 100 to 400 kHz and pulse duration from 58 to 240 ns and is significantly related to the laser power and scanning speed. Moreover, the cleaning thresholds related to laser power and scanning speed for a soil rust layer on ceramic artifacts are measured under the step distance of 281.3 μm. The heat conduction equation and thermal stress equation are used to simulate the cleaning effect with the influence of these parameters, which is in good agreement with the experimental data.
