Tackling conservation challenges using erbium lasers: case studies at the British Museum
Research was conducted at the British Museum to investigate the potential of Er:YAG lasers to address challenging conservation problems where traditional conservation methods had failed. The approach followed was to perform laser tests on model samples and unregistered objects to determine the laser alteration threshold fluence on each substrate and...Pereira-Pardo, Lucía ; Melita, Lucia N. ; Korenberg, Capucine
