SUMMARY Purpose: To investigate the effect of neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser irradiation pretreatment on the long-term bond strength of an etch-and-rinse adhesive to dentin. Methods: Fifty molars were sectioned parallel to the occlusal plane and randomly divided into two groups (n=25 per group): control group (no treatment) and laser group (dentin surfaces were treated with Nd:YAG laser at a setting of 100 mJ/10 Hz). Afterward, resin was bonded to the dentin surface using a two-step etch-and-rinse adhesive (Adper SingleBond 2), and then 150 beams of each group were produced. Each group was divided into three subgroups (n=50 each group): 24 hours of water storage, thermocycling, and NaOCl storage. The microtensile bond strength (MTBS), failure modes, nanoleakage expression, and Masson's trichrome staining were evaluated. An additional 20 molars were sectioned to obtain 2-mm-thick flat dentin slices. These slices were randomly divided into control and laser-treated groups as mentioned previously. Then slices of each group were examined by scanning electron microscopy, attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and the Knoop hardness test. Results: The results of ATR-FTIR and Masson's trichrome verified that laser irradiation partly removed collagen fibers from the dentin surface; however, no significant difference was found in the Knoop hardness (p>0.05). The XRD result showed similar crystalline structure regardless of laser pretreatment. There is no significant difference in short-term MTBS between control and laser-treated groups (p>0.05); however, long-term MTBS differed between the groups (p>0.05). Furthermore, the laser-treated group showed less silver deposition than the control group after aging (p<0.05). Conclusion: Pretreatment by Nd:YAG laser irradiation appeared to have a positive effect on the adhesive-dentin bonding in vitro test, and the bonding effectiveness could be preserved after aging.

In this work we present a clean one-step process for modifying headgroups of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold using photo-enabled click chemistry. A thiolated, cyclopropenone-caged strained alkyne precursor was first functionalized onto a flat gold substrate through self-assembly. Exposure of the cyclopropenone SAM to UV-A light initiated the efficient photochemical decarbonylation of the cyclopropenone moiety, revealing the strained alkyne capable of undergoing the interfacial strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC). Irradiated SAMs were derivatized with a series of model azides with varied hydrophobicity to demonstrate the generality of this chemical system for the modification and fine-tuning of the surface chemistry on gold substrates. SAMs were characterized at each step with polarization-modulation infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (PM-IRRAS) to confirm successful functionalization and reactivity. Furthermore, to showcase the compatibility of this approach with biochemical applications, cyclopropenone SAMs were irradiated and modified with azide-bearing cell adhesion peptides to promote human fibroblast cell adhesion, then imaged by live cell fluorescence microscopy. Thus, the “photoclick” methodology reported here represents an improved, versatile, catalyst-free protocol that allows for a high degree of control over the modification of material surfaces, with applicability in materials science as well as biochemistry.<br>

Clinical Relevance Statistical analysis of the results obtained in this study shows that Nd:YAG laser irradiation on the adhesive system has a significant influence on bond strength to dentin. Bond strength is improved by better adhesive penetration when low energy is applied; whereas, high energy densities have a deleterious effect on the procedure.

In the present study, effect of pre-oxidized (PO) CuO layer in the joining between polyethylene terephalate (PET) and copper (Cu) by using pulsed Nd:YAG laser was investigated. The experimental result for PET/PO Cu (with pre-oxidized layer) and PET/Cu (without pre-oxidized layer) were presented in this paper. The results showed the pre-oxidation surface improved the welding efficiency. The welded area and tensile shear failure load (TSFL) of PET/PO Cu joint were increased when pre-oxidized layer was introduced. This indicates that high heat was absorbed during laser irradiation of PET/PO-Cu joint compare to PET/Cu joint. On the other hand, the fracture surface of PET/PO-Cu showed the presence of Cu and Cu oxide particles in the PET side. While in case of PET/Cu, no occurrence of Cu particles can be observed. The presence of Cu oxide particles and Cu particles were believed may increase PET/PO Cu joint shear force. From the cross-sectional observation of PET/PO Cu joint interface, it was found that an oxide layer in the laser irradiation area was removed and PET seemed to have intimate contact with Cu surface.
