    Presented at PICALO 2008

    Diode lasers have a great advantage on energy conversion efficiency compared with other conventional lasers. On the other hand, they have a shortcoming on beam quality, because high power direct diode lasers have an elliptical shape beam with low power density, which is thought to be appried only heat treatment or laser cradding. This report describes that this characteristic of an elliptical beam shape enables good welding feature f...

    UV wavelengths are interesting for photothermal cutting of materials that have a low absorption coefficient or are transparent at 1064 and 532 nm wavelengths, such as copper, sapphire or glass. The high photon energy of UV lasers plays also a significant role in photochemical machining of polymer materials such as polyimide. In addition to the absorp...

    Miniaturization of electronic devices such as laboratory-on-chip or system-on-ship requires small power supply unit such as in micrometer size. Therefore all-solid-state microbatteries become important in those applications. This paper reports the studies and developments of thin film electrodes in the thickness of a few micrometers which were fabricated by a pulsed laser deposition technique. It has been demonstrated that the thin film electrodes not only have high power capacity but...

    Ralph Delmdahl, Coherent GmbH; Goettingen Germany
    Presented at PICALO 2008

    High pulse energy excimer lasers with pulse energies between 300mJ and 1200mJ/pulse and photon energies between 5eV and 7.9eV lend maximum flexibility to the technique of pulsed laser deposition. On account of the high energy densities accessible with the latest generation of excimer lasers, the entire material spectrum including high band-gap metal oxides such as ZnO is amenable to precise and controlled ablation with subsequent stoichiometric transfer to the substrat. Because the transferred material needs time to smoothly deposit and position itself opti...
