| Abstract: | 1 Results Homogeneity of fibroin thin films by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) was significantly improved by introducing autogenous binders to consolidate and homogenize the irradiation targets.Homogenization includes among others,decreases in the size of nanostructural units and the fractional debris.Simultaneously,the deposition rate was substantially increased.Autogenous binders are prepared via degumming and liquefaction of fibroin by using Na2CO3 and LiBr,respectively.We also found that optically hom... |
