Nanosecond laser ablation of p-type Si(111) wafer is presented under an ambient, a water and a glycerin conditions. Effects of pulse energy, number of pulses and type of environment are systematically analyzed with an Optical Profilometer,…
Laser machining and modification of black-Si (b-Si) by femtosecond laser Gaussian (G-) and Gauss-Bessel (GB-) beams are compared at a wavelength of 1030 nm. The GB-beam was generated using a diffractive axicon lens and 10x demagnification…
Ultrafast Bessel beams demonstrate a significant capacity of structuring transparent materials with high degree of accuracy and exceptional aspect ratio. The ability to localize energy on the nanometer scale (bypassing the 100 nm milestone)…
Large surface area applications such as high-efficiency > 26% solar cells require surface patterning with 1-10 micrometers periodic patterns at high fidelity over 1-10 cm^2 areas (before up scaling to 1 m^2) to perform at, or exceed, the…
Fabrication of large area (sub 1 cm cross-section) micro-optical components in a short period of time (approximately 10 min) and with lesser number of processing steps is highly desirable and cost-effective. In the recent years, femtosecond…
Ultrafast laser pulses spatially shaped as Bessel beams in dielectrics create high aspect ratio plasma channels whose relaxation can lead to the formation of nanochannels. We report a strong enhancement of the nanochannel drilling…
