How to Improve Efficiency in USP Laser Micromachining: A new generation of resonant scanners and innovative ultrashort pulse lasers allow for efficient and fast processing. Issue 1 (21st January 2016) - Herrmann, Thomas
Abstract: Highest quality in laser micromachining is obtained using ultrashort light pulses with energies slightly above ablation threshold. Together with very high pulse repetition rates and a new type of fast beam deflection technology, new pathways in laser micromachining have been opened. As examples, we show results of improved surface texturing and carbon‐fiber reinforced plastic material removal using this technology.
