Effect of Laser Beam Conditioning on Fabrication of Micro-Channels in Al <sub/>2</sub> O <sub/>3</sub> Bio-ceramics Using Nd:YAG Laser
摘要: In the present study, laser micro-milling tests were carried out to fabricate micro-channels on Alumina bio-ceramics (Al2O3), using a Q-Switched 30W Nd:YAG pulsed laser. A systematic approach based on a full factorial Design of Experiment (DoE) has been successfully applied with the aim to detect which and how the key input laser process parameters affect the channel dimensional accuracy. The examined process parameters were the laser beam scanning speed, the pulse frequency and the pulse intensity. Optical microscope was used to analyze the channel geometries responses (i.e. channel's top width, bottom width, depth, and taper wall angle). Moreover, mathematical models for predicting the micro-channel geometries are successfully proposed for controlled micro-milling of micro-channels in Al2O3. Results reveal that, the change of scanning speed and laser intensity significantly affected the ablated channel’s geometries. Further it is observed that the channel depth and width increase linearly with increasing of laser intensity and decreasing of scanning speed and not much affected by changing of pulse frequency. Finally, the experimental results bear a good agreement with the proposed prediction models.

Laser Treatment as Sintering Process for Dispenser Printed Bismuth Telluride Based Paste
摘要: Laser sintering as a thermal post treatment method for dispenser printed p- and n-type bismuth telluride based thermoelectric paste materials was investigated. A high-power fiber laser (600 W, 1064 nm) was used in combination with a scanning system to achieve high processing speed. A Design of Experiment (DoE) approach was used to identify the most relevant processing parameters. Printed layers were laser treated with different process parameters and the achieved sheet resistance, electrical conductivity, and Seebeck coefficient are compared to tube furnace processed reference specimen. For p-type material, electrical conductivity of 22 S/cm was achieved, compared to 15 S/cm in tube furnace process. For n-type material, conductivity achieved by laser process was much lower (7 S/cm) compared to 88 S/cm in furnace process. Also, Seebeck coefficient decreases during laser processing (40–70 μV/K and ?110 μV/K) compared to the oven process (251 μV/K and ?142 μV/K) for p- and n-type material. DoE did not yet deliver a set of optimum processing parameters, but supports doubts about the applicability of area specific laser energy density as a single parameter to optimize laser sintering process.
