Processing (cutting or micro-structuring) tempered or non-tempered, flexible or thick glass with high precision can be a challenging task. Mesh glass wafers and wafers for wafer-level-packaging (WLP) require various shapes of through-holes with high aspect ratio channels in the same wafer. Femtosecond lasers are perfect for both selective laser etching (SLE) and 5-axis drilling heads. … Continue reading
Dr. Julian Fells and his team at the University of Oxford, Department of Engineering Science have developed sapphire fiber sensors that can withstand extreme temperatures. These sensors have the potential to increase efficiency and reduce emissions in aerospace and power generation. Light Conversion is very proud to have supplied the PHAROS femtosecond laser for this research. … Continue reading
Ceramics and ceramic-like materials are essential in science and industry due to their outstanding thermal, mechanical, chemical properties. In a recent article, PHAROS femtosecond laser from Light Conversion was used for laser lithography of hybrid organic-inorganic materials with subsequent heat treatment leading to tunable-crystalline-phase 3D nanostructures with feature resolution down to 60 nm. The article, entitled “Laser additive manufacturing of Si/ZrO2 tunable crystalline phase … Continue reading
Along with the 80 W, 40 W, and 20 W models of CARBIDE femtosecond laser, Light Conversion now offers an 80 W model with 2 mJ pulse energy! The reliability of CARBIDE femtosecond laser has been proven by hundreds of systems operating 24/7 in the industrial environment. The lasers are mainly used for a variety … Continue reading
To appreciate the precision of a snowflake it is not necessary to stand out in the cold! This year snowflakes come trapped in glass and are visible only with the help of polarized light. Single-pass welding of 1-mm thick, fused silica glass is enabled using the BiBurst function of the CARBIDE femtosecond laser from Light … Continue reading
