Chair Keeper

The LMO chair is managed by Prof. Andrés Lasagni. He is originally from Argentina and since 2008 lives and works in Dresden. Since the same date he is also head of the group “Surface Functionalization” at the Fraunhofer Institute for Material and Beam Technology IWS. In 2012, Prof. Lasagni started with his first professorship at the TU Dresden and since 2014 he is keeper of the LMO chair.

Studies

Prof. Lasagni, head of the chair, gives the lecture “Laser precision manufacturing” in the winter semester and also offers an international school on laser processing in summer. The professoship also offers students the possibility to prepare bachelor, diploma and master theses in the chair's research topics.

Research

LMO focuses on the development of technologies for the high speed functionalization of technical surfaces. To achieve this objective, we try to find the relationships between surface morphology with specific surface properties. The complex topographies that are required are produced either by laser based technologies or roll to roll imprinting and hot embossing methods.

The Chair for Laser-based Maufacturing

Originally, the chair was created after a challenging selection procedure at the Technische Universität Dresden as one of nine Open Topic Tenure Track (OTTP) chairs, which were established within the German excellence initiative. Our scientific team comprises off senior scientists and Ph.D. students. In addition, we offer topics for bachelor, diploma and master theses as well as other student research work such as interdisciplinary project work, which can be conducted either the TU Dresden or the Fraunhofer IWS Dresden. Once a year, students and Ph.D. students meet in Dresden for the International Summer School “Trends and new developments in laser technology” to present and discuss their latest results
