There is a growing interest by art conservators for laser cleaning of wood artworks, since traditional cleaning with chemical solvents can be a source of decay, due to the prolonged action of chemicals after the restoration. In this experiment we used excimer and Nd:YAGlasers, emitting radiation in the ultraviolet (248 nm), visible (532 nm) and near infrared (1064 nm), to investigate the effect of laser interaction on gilded wood samples at different wavelengths.

Abstract
There is a growing interest by art conservators for laser cleaning of wood artworks, since traditional cleaning with chemical solvents can be a source of decay, due to the prolonged action of chemicals after the restoration. In this experiment we used excimer and Nd:YAGlasers, emitting radiation in the ultraviolet (248 nm), visible (532 nm) and near infrared (1064 nm), to investigate the effect of laser interaction on gilded wood samples at different wavelengths.File in questo prodotto:
