Abstract
This chapter deals with laser-induced surface modifications and chemical transformations of mainly organic materials. It includes cases where a solid surface or a thin film is decomposed so that only a single component or a mixture of components of the original material remains. The systems investigated in detail are listed in Appendix B.11. Photochemical transformations of organic polymers are the basis of laser lithography. Laser-induced decomposition and/or ablation of organic compounds is frequently used for material patterning.
