Background:

Pulsed laser radiation creates nanostructures that alter surface optics, producing stable structural colors.
Current methods for laser-assisted structural coloration face limitations in resolution and multicolor capabilities on single samples.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a facile and high-resolution method for laser-induced structural coloration with multicolor printing on a single sample.
To explore parameter-regulated femtosecond laser processing regimes for diverse nanostructure formation and color generation.

Main Methods:

Utilized femtosecond laser pulses on a Ti-TiO2-Ti sandwich structure to induce different surface modifications.
Developed a neural network to correlate processing parameters with color appearance and enable predictable multicolor image printing.
Investigated the formation of subwavelength ripples, laser-induced periodic surface structures, and uniform oxide films.

Main Results:

Achieved coexistence of multiple laser processing regimes on a single sample, yielding diverse nanostructures.
Demonstrated parameter-tunable, polarization-dependent structural colors across a wide gamut.
Showcased exceptional color printing resolution up to 20000 dpi.

Conclusions:

Femtosecond laser processing offers a versatile platform for high-resolution, multicolor structural coloration.
The developed neural network facilitates predictable color printing and image generation.
Potential applications include advanced marking, labeling, and anticounterfeiting technologies.
