Laser bionics
At the Laser Institute Rezekne (LIR), we focus on the fascinating intersection of biology and laser technology, specifically in the creation of multifunctional surfaces inspired by biological models. These nature-mimicking surfaces offer ingenious solutions to a variety of technical challenges, primarily derived from their unique micro- or nanoscopic structures. Modern laser processes are exceptionally well-suited for crafting these intricate structures, which are pivotal in achieving the desired functional properties at the interface region.

The mission at LIR is to translate these nature-inspired, laser-functionalised surfaces from conceptual models into practical, everyday applications. This journey begins with an in-depth analysis of the microscopic structures created by laser fabrication and culminates in the reliable demonstration of the functionality of the laser-processed parts.
To position these developed laser processes as industrially viable and competitive, we utilise state-of-the-art laser systems and process technology. Our commitment is to establish laser bionics not just as a scientific curiosity, but as a robust, industrial manufacturing process, bringing the genius of the natural world into contemporary technological applications. Through this endeavour, LIR continues to be at the vanguard of innovation, blending the intricacies of biology with the precision of laser technology to address and solve real-world challenges.
