Influence of the pulse duration at near-infrared wavelengths on the laser-induced material removal of hot-dipped galvanized steel
摘要： Hot-dipped galvanized steel is processed with short- and ultrashort-pulsed lasers in air at near-infrared wavelengths with pulse durations ranging from 350 fs to 241 ns. The morphology of the ablated craters (processed over a range of laser fluence levels and a number of laser pulses) is analyzed by confocal laser scanning microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The ablation threshold of galvanized steel is found to increase with laser pulse durations following a simple power Fth ? A:τB law. Longer pulse durations in the nanosecond regime, as compared to pulse durations in the picosecond and femtosecond regime, result in higher ablation efficiency and energy penetration depth at the cost of surface quality.

Development of Method Enhanced Laser Ablation Efficiency According to Fine Curvature of the Polymer through the Preliminary Preparation Process Using UV Picosecond Laser
摘要： In processes using the ultrashort pulsed laser, the phenomenon that the ablation efficiency is reduced due to the increase of the shielding effect of the generated plume is increasingly caused by the use of the high power and high repetition rate. A new method is needed to prevent a decrease in ablation efficiency in processing using an ultrashort pulsed laser. In this study, the proposed a processing method that can improve the ablation efficiency by providing an efficient escape path of plume, and examine the feasibility of a new processing method. The new method we proposed is a method of laser processing after generating a fine curvature in the polymer as a preliminary preparation. The fine curvature of the polymer produced by the preliminary preparation induces an artificial chimney-like opening along the path of the incident beam during laser processing, thereby enabling the plume to be effectively removed. The experiment for examine the feasibility through a new method was conducted using a 10-picosecond laser of UV wavelength with two optical systems. As a new processing method, when processing with ultrashort pulse laser, it was observed that the ablation efficiency improved.

Synthesis of colloidal aluminum nanoparticles by nanosecond pulsed laser and the effect of external electric field and laser fluence on ablation rate
摘要： In this paper, the ablation of aluminum was induced by a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser (1064 nm, ~10 ns and 10 Hz) in ethanol at room temperature for producing colloidal nanoparticles. Two different experimental schemes (i.e. the electric field parallel, and perpendicular to the laser propagation path) were used to investigate the dependence of ablation rate on the external electric field characteristics and the laser fluence. The results show that at a constant laser fluence, regardless of the type of scheme, the ablation rate is increased in the presence of electric field. However, the characteristics of craters strongly depend on the direction of the electric field. The results also show that at both schemes with a constant electric field, the ablation rate rises when the laser fluence is increased. According to the results, it can be concluded that the ablation rate enhanced by applying electric field and increasing laser pulse energy.

An industry-relevant method to determine material-specific parameters for ultra-short pulsed laser ablation of cemented carbide
摘要： In recent years, it has been shown that ultra-short pulsed lasers can be used for the post processing and the fabrication of cutting tools. This new manufacturing technology can compete with the mainly used grinding process due to its ability to ablate materials independent of their hardness and without any wear. The knowledge of material properties is necessary for an optimal choice of machining parameters and the prediction of the ablation process. Measuring them is challenging, especially for inhomogeneous, ultra-hard materials. In this paper, an industry-relevant method is presented, which enables to determine the threshold fluence and the optical properties of cemented carbide. The required material-specific parameters are derived from simple ablation experiments, which are carried out on a modern laser machining center. Finally, the results are used to present a formula to calculate the material removal rate at different angles of incidence of the laser beam.

Surface ablation efficiency and quality of fs lasers in single-pulse mode, fs lasers in burst mode, and ns lasers
摘要： In recent years, the burst-mode caught a lot of attention in the field of ultrashort-pulse laser micro machining. One of the major issues is the influence of the burst pulse number and frequency on ablation efficiency and quality. A recent publication reported of a significant increase in ablation efficiency when processing with ≥ 25 burst pulses at ≥ 100 MHz burst frequencies. This raises the question of whether processing with such high pulse densities can be attributed to non-thermal ablation, or whether a quasi-nanosecond laser ablation behavior is achieved. To answer this question, we determined ablation efficiencies as function of fluence for silicon, stainless steel, and copper and compared the ablation quality at the optimal fluence using the following laser systems: femtosecond laser operated in single-pulse mode, fs laser operated in 28-pulse-burst mode with a burst pulse frequency of 148 MHz, and a nanosecond laser with a pulse duration of 175 ns, which is identical with the temporal length of the burst pulse train. The comparison showed that the burst mode used produces similar surface morphologies and melt burrs as the nanosecond laser, but at about 2/3 of its efficiency.

Influence of laser spot size and shape on ablation efficiency using ultrashort pulse laser system
摘要： Ultra-short pulsed laser systems provide high accuracy and high-quality materials processing for various kinds of applications. However, one of the highest industrial needs is to identify most efficient processes to achieve high throughput. In terms of ultra-short pulsed laser processing of metals, the specific removal rate (ablated volume per time and average power) shows a maximum value i.e. there exists an optimum fluence where the ablation process is most efficient. In this study the influence of spot size and shape (Gaussian and Top Hat) on the ablation efficiency on AISI 304 (1.4301) steel grade was examined using 10 ps and 350 fs laser pulses at wavelengths of 1064 nm and 1030 nm. The investigation revealed a significant drop of the specific removal rate with increasing Gaussian spot size for both pulse duration. While this behaviour is less pronounced for a Top Hat, showing just 8% decrease of specific removal rate for spot sizes bigger than 40 μm.

The Comparison of Thermal Effects of a 1940‐nm Tm:fiber Laser and 980‐nm Diode Laser on Cortical Tissue: Stereotaxic Laser Brain Surgery
摘要： Background and Objectives: The thermal damage on adjacent healthy structures is always an unwanted consequence of continuous‐wave laser irradiation of soft tissues. To propose a laser as an effective alternative to traditional surgical tools, this photothermal damage due to heat conduction must be taken into account with a detailed laser dosimetry study. Two candidate lasers; a 980‐nm diode and 1940‐nm Tm:fiber were selected for this study. Despite the poor absorption by water, the 980‐nm diode laser has been one of the most widely used lasers in soft tissue surgeries due its good absorption by hemoglobin, which provides good homeostasis. The second laser; the Tm:fiber laser was selected due to its wavelength operating at an absorption peak of water (1,940 nm), which makes it a good candidate for ablation of biological tissues, and it is readily capable of being transmitted through flexible fiber optics to deliver energy to hard‐to‐reach regions. The underlying motivation for the research described in this paper is that with a comprehensive comparison of ablation capabilities and a detailed dose study of infrared lasers operating at different wavelengths and temperature monitoring of the tissue during laser surgery, it may be possible to specify the optimal laser parameters for laser surgery, and propose a treatment alternative to conventional surgical techniques in clinical use. The objectives of this study were to investigate and to compare the thermal effects of 980‐nm and 1940‐nm lasers on cortical tissue in vivo, to find the optimum parameters for laser‐brain‐ablation with minimum thermal damage to the surrounding healthy tissue, and finally, to analyze laser irradiated tissue thermographically and histologically to correlate thermal events and tissue damage with laser irradiation parameters. Study Design/Materials and Methods: Stereotaxic laser brain surgeries were performed on 32 male Wistar rats. A t‐type thermocouple was used to measure the temperature of the nearby tissue at a distance of 1 mm above and 1 mm away from the fiber tip during laser surgery. Cresyl fast violet (CFV) staining was used to expose the thermal extent of laser surgery on cortical tissue. Eight tissue samples from each laser study group were processed for histological analysis and the mean ± standard deviation for thermal damage was reported. Thermal damage was quantified as ablation (thermally removed tissue), severe and mild coagulation (irreversible thermal damage) and edematous (reversible thermal damage) areas with regard to CFV stained slices. The Pearson correlation coefficient was calculated to test if the ablation efficiencies and total damage, and edematous areas were correlated to rates of temperature change. Results: No significant adverse effects were observed during surgeries. We found that both lasers investigated were successful in cortical tissue removal. Our results also revealed that irrespective of the mode of operation, laser wavelength and laser power, there is a strong correlation between the rates of temperature change and ablation efficiencies and a negative correlation between the rate of temperature change and total damage and edematous area. Conclusions: Both lasers investigated were successful in cortical tissue removal. We also reported that when the amount of energy delivered to the tissue was constant, the most important issue was to deliver this energy in a short time to achieve more efficient ablations with less edema around the lesion, regardless of mode of delivery (continuous or pulsed‐modulated mode), but further studies including the healing period after laser surgeries have to be performed to compare the thermal extent of damage comprehensively.

Highly-efficient laser ablation of copper by bursts of ultrashort tuneable (fs-ps) pulses
摘要： Ultrashort pulse laser, capable of varying pulse duration between 210 fs and 10 ps and producing a burst of pulses with an intra-burst pulse repetition rate of 64.5 MHz (time distance between pulses 15.5 ns), was used to investigate the ablation efficiency of the copper. The study on ablation efficiency was done for various numbers of pulses per burst between 1 and 40. The increase in the ablation efficiency by 20% for 3 pulses per burst compared to a non-burst regime was observed. The comparison was made between the beam-size optimised regimes. Therefore, the real advantage of the burst regime was demonstrated. To the best of our knowledge, we report the highest laser milling ablation efficiency of copper of 4.84 μm3/μJ by ultrashort pulses at ~1 μm optical wavelength.

Enhancement of ablation rate and production of colloidal nanoparticles by irradiation of metals with nanosecond pulsed laser in presence of external electric field
摘要： This paper presents the results of experimental study on the effect of electric field on the ablation rate during the nanosecond pulsed laser ablation of aluminum and copper in deionized water. The effect of electric field strength on the material removal rate and its mechanisms were investigated both in the electric field parallel and perpendicular to the laser beam path schemes. The ablation rate was estimated by measuring the dimensions of craters on the target induced by laser. The crater dimensions and optical properties of the produced colloidal nanoparticles were characterized by means of optical microscopy and UV–Vis absorption spectroscopy, respectively. The results indicate that pulsed laser ablation in the presence of an electric field significantly leads to higher material removal rate. The experimental results also confirm that the crater geometry extremely depends on the direction of the electric field with respect to the laser beam direction. The UV–Vis spectra show that the nanoparticles production efficiency increases with increasing the electric field strength.
