Reduction of Radius of Curvature in Thin-Sheet-Metal Bending by Ultrashort-Pulsed Laser Peen Forming
摘要： Ultrashort-pulsed laser peen forming is a method of thin-sheet-metal forming using laser-induced shock waves. The authors have applied the process to microsheet parts bending, which is accomplished by repeating line scanning. However, when a severe curvature is requested, nonnegligible reduction of sheet thickness is induced by laser ablation. In order to restrict the thickness reduction, the authors attempted to improve the bending efficiency, which would allow a reduction in the number of necessary pulses. Scanning velocity and scanning pitch were changed, while the total irradiated pulse number was constant. The obtained results showed that a scanning velocity higher than the conventional one is favorable for improving the bending efficiency. In addition, smaller scanning pitches were adopted to reduce the radius of curvature. The influence of the scanning pitch on the bending efficiency was much weaker than that of scanning velocity. From the results of the evaluation of efficiency and scanned surface asperity, a scanning velocity of 20 mm·s-1 was judged to be the best. The best scanning condition achieved a 40% smaller radius of curvature than the conventional one.

Discovery of Several New Families of Saturable Absorbers for Ultrashort Pulsed Laser Systems
摘要： Saturable Absorber (SA) is a key element of any passive mode-locked laser system to provide ultrashort laser system. So far various materials have been proposed that could be used for this purpose. However, the field is still looking for new ways to make the fabrication process easier and cost-effective. Another challenge in testing mode-locked laser systems using various SA samples is the lack of knowledge in preparing these by laser physicists given this is outside their remit of expertise. In this study, we have proposed a novel method to produce these SAs from plastic materials and glycol. Our new method relies upon increase in thickness up to a value where the modulation depth is enough to give stable ultrashort pulses. Although we have shown this method for four materials; similar approach could be applied to any material. this will open the door of unlimited families of SAs that could be easily prepared and applied without any prior knowledge in material sciences.

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.

Selective rear-side ablation of aluminum thin layers with ultrashort-pulsed laser radiation
摘要： In recent years, several applications for laser ablation of thin metal layers from the fused silica substrate side have been studied. The rear-side ablation is a highly effective ablation method for thin layer structuring and reveals a high structuring quality. Therefore, the present work dealt with the selective rear-side ablation of thin aluminum layers (10–50 nm) on fused silica with ultrashort-pulsed laser radiation (λ = 1028 nm, ??H = 0.2–10 ps and w0,86 = 15.2 μm). The influences of pulse duration and layer thickness on the ablation thresholds as well as the incubation coefficients were determined. For layer thicknesses of 30 and 50 nm, a decrease of the ablation threshold with increasing pulse duration was determined. Whereas, the ablation threshold remained constant for layer thicknesses of 10 and 20 nm. Different morphologies were observed depending on the process parameters. The rear-side ablation of aluminum proceeded over the melting phase and no lift-off process had taken place. In addition to experimental investigations, calculations were carried out to determine the theoretical threshold fluences. The theoretical values were compared to experimental data. With the help of these investigations, the quality of the structuring of aluminum layers can be improved.

Percussion Drilling Hole in Cu, Al, Ti and Ni Alloys Using Ultra-Short Pulsed Laser Ablation
摘要： Comparative study on micro-deep hole drilling by picosecond ultra-short pulse laser in four metals, including copper, aluminum alloy, titanium alloy, and nickel alloy, was presented. Destructive testing was performed to measure the depth, shape, and side-wall morphology of micro-deep holes in this study. Diameters and depths of micro-deep holes in four metals ablated using the same processing parameters were compared. The multiple thresholds of metals had been calculated. Relationships between hole dimensions and multiple thresholds (the average ablation threshold, the ablation threshold and the thermal threshold) and physical properties (for example, the heat capacity, the melting temperature, the optical penetration depth and the absorbance, etc.) of the four metals are examined. Furthermore, the surface and side-wall morphologies of the micro-deep holes in four metals were demonstrated. The in?uence mechanisms, especially the side-wall morphology, were discussed, such as the thresholds, conical emission, self-cleaning e?ect, physical properties of metals, the energy transmission, the plasma e?ect, thermochemical reaction, and so on.

Simulation of the dynamics of heat accumulation during in-volume modification with ultrashort laser pulses
摘要： Working with ultrashort pulsed (USP) laser systems with high repetition rates, heat accumulation effects evolve and subsequently the absorption becomes linear. As a consequence, the process dynamics change significantly. Structuring glasses with those USP Lasers leads to melted lines that are used for waveguides, welding or selective laser-induced etching whose resulting qualities are strongly depending of the structuring results and given smoothness. We perform simulations during in-volume modification processes, by recalculating the absorption behavior in between the iteration steps of heat accumulation. The simulation results provide explanations for smoothness or non-smoothness of modifications comparable to experiments in glass.

Parabolic two-step model and accurate numerical scheme for nanoscale heat conduction induced by ultrashort-pulsed laser heating
摘要： Simulation of nanoscale heat transfer phenomena has attracted great attention, particularly the nano-scale heat conduction induced by ultrashort-pulsed laser heating. In this article, we propose a nanoscale parabolic two-step model and an accurate numerical scheme for thermal analysis of the nanoscale heat conduction induced by ultrashort-pulsed laser heating. To this end, we first introduce the Knudsen number (Kn) into the original parabolic two-step heat conduction equations and couple them with the Kn-dependent and temperature-jump boundary condition. We then develop a fourth-order accurate compact finite difference method for solving the nanoscale model. Stability and convergence of the obtained numerical scheme are analyzed theoretically. We finally test the accuracy and applicability of the nanoscale model and the obtained numerical scheme in three examples. By choosing various values of the Kn and the parameter α in the boundary condition, the simulation could be a tool for analyzing the nanoscale heat conduction induced by ultrashort-pulsed laser heating.
