Surface relief gratings (SRG) and self-organized nano-structures induced by laser light at 157Â nm on the fluoropolymer poly(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl methacrylate) (PTFEMA), films were obtained under well-controlled light exposure conditions. Regular and semi-regular spaced self-organized grating-like structures were created on polymeric films for â¼7.5-100Â mJ/cm2 laser energy fluence. For lower laser fluence, the surface morphology of light exposed/non-exposed areas exhibited irregular-like structure morphologies, while polymer surface irradiation with energy fluence higher than 150Â mJ/cm2 causes progressively fading out of the regular patterns. Under the specific experimental conditions, the SRG and self-organization patterning have their origin in the development of a surface thermal instability (Rayleigh's instability), which is resolved itself into regular patterns on the surface of the fluoropolymer film. The thermal instability is due to the explosive polymer surface photo-dissociation at 157Â nm and the build up of longitudinal and periodic surface stress, which eventually create the SRG and the self-assembled structures on the polymer.
