    Bulk machining of transparent materials is an interesting capability of offered by short pulse lasers. When a laser beam with high peak pulse power is focused inside of a transparent material, the material becomes vaporized and ionized by the laser energy and its expansion causes a small pore to form at the interaction site. By translating the beam so that multiple pores are connected, microfluidic passages can be machin...

    Presented at ICALEO 2005

    In this article, femtosecond laser pulse propagation in a silicon target is simulated by considering the ionization process under intense electromagnetic field of the laser pulse. The electromagnetic field is computed by solving the Maxwell�s equations using the Finite-Difference Time-Domain method, and the two-temperature model is employed for electron-lattice energy coupling phenomena. The electrical conductivity is predicted by computing the electron a...

    Presented at ICALEO 2005

    UV laser radiation is widely used for processing of polymers. We present the results obtained by investigation of the laser ablation processes with picosecond pulses in about 20 different organic materials. Micro-drilling and cutting of polymers were performed by the 266-nm radiation. The effect of laser fluence on the ablation rate and drilling depth was investigated.
    Most of the materials showed two ablation thresholds. One of them was below 1 J/cm2 with a low material removal ...

    Presented at ICALEO 2005

    Recently we developed the technique of using ultra-fast laser for shaped-hole fabrication in industrial applications. In particular, inkjet nozzles of funnel shape can be fabricated reproducibly, precisely and in high speed using the ultra-fast laser fabrication technique. A PC-controlled scanning mirror is used to steer laser beam and form an overlapped two-dimensional tool path. Laser beam is repetitively scanned over the target area of the...

    Electron Beam Welding vs. Laser Beam Welding for Air Bearing Shaft
    Authors:

    Presented at ICALEO 2005

    Air bearings allow designers to push the envelope on precision and high-speed applications. Unlike contact roller bearings, air bearings utilise thin film pressurised air to provide ?zero friction? load bearing interface between surfaces that would otherwise be in contact with each other. Being non-contact, air bearings avoid the tradition bearing- related problems of friction, wear, and lubricant handling, and offer distinct advantages in precision positioning and high speed applications. Air bearings are a natural choice for applications in coo...

    Presented at ICALEO 2005

    The primary drivers in Microtechnology are getting smaller in size, increased sophistication and complexity, greater local intelligence, increased predication of in-service reliability and lower cost. These trends result in the need for new materials and assembly technologies and are consequently the adoption of pulsed laser as production tools. In order to adapt the processing speed to the average laser power pulsed laser operation is desirable. Currently some welding applications require very small spot size (30-40m) and pulse energies low as 10m...
