Presented at ICALEO 2010
A great deal of effort has been made on the laser ignitions for an ideal combustion engine. Unfortunately, it seems to be limited as a basic issue because the conventional highly brightness giant pulse solid-sate lasers are not suitable for vehicle mobile applications. Recent Micro Solid-State Photonics, which includes the field of transparent laser ceramics with controlled micro-domain structure, is making an impact in the development of high-brightness microchip solid-state lasers. In our passively Q-switched Nd:...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2010
Scan heads now are replacing processing traditionally done with fixed head optics using X-Y tables One reason is that fiber lasers offer opportunities to direct intense energy through scan heads over wide marking fields now exceeding 200mm square. Additionally the availability of fiber lasers with increased divergence provides a better application of consistent power across a large mark. This is especially useful for applications such as anneal marking, remote welding, and vapor pres...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2010
Typically, most laser workstations are limited to only one type of process such as welding, cutting or marking. However, when processing thinner sheet metals, there are clear advantages to using one laser for multiple applications, including both cutting and welding. In the past fiber laser cutting and welding has been well established for sheet metals with thicknesses below 3 mm, however these processes need different process parameters, requiring very different w...$28.00

A Modeling of UV Laser Drilled Microhole Profiles
Authors:
Frank Wu, Metrolaser Inc; Irvine CA USA
Presented at ICALEO 2010
In this paper, it has been developed a model describing UV laser microhole drilling process, which can predict the drilled microhole profiles for several kinds of specific incident beams. The report tries to answer how the peak fluence, the beam diameter, and the material parameters affect the hole shapes.The model also explains why hole drilling will stop under certain circumstances, i.e., under certain circumstance, more shots applied to the process will not generate any further drilling effect--a stabilized or saturated drilling happens. High efficient laser proc...
