Zusammenfassung: | A method of laser processing of materials. The combination of ultrafast laser pulses and high-repetition rate (>1MHz) bursts (or continuous opera tion) defines a new regime for material processing. The high rate controls thermal processes evolving between each ultrafast laser pulse that 'prepares' the sample surface or bulk for optimal interaction with subsequent ultrafast laser pulses. The addition of this laser-controlled thermal component overcomes sever al current limitations of ultrafast laser processing at lower repetition rates (< 1MHz), providing means to fully harness the many attributes by ultrafast lasers for material processing applications. |
