A1 - Bonse, Jörn T1 - Femtosecond-laser induced ablation of silicate glasses and the intrinsic dissociation energy N2 - The relation between ablation threshold fluence upon femtosecond laser pulse irradiation and the average dissociation energy density of silicate based multicomponent glass is studied. A simple model based on multiphoton absorption quantifies the absorbed energy density at the ablation threshold fluence. This energy density is compared to a calculated energy density which is necessary to decompose the glass compound into its atomic constituents. The results confirm that this energy density is a crucial intrinsic material parameter for the description of the femtosecond laser ablation threshold fluence of dielectrics.

T1 - Design of LTCC with high thermal expansion N2 - New applications of low-temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC), such as pressure sensors or integrated functional layers, require materials that possess higher coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE). To fabricate LTCC with elevated CTE, two methods of material design are examined: firstly, glass ceramic composites (GCC), which consist of >50 vol% glass in the starting powder, and, secondly, glass-bonded ceramics (GBC), where glass is added as a sintering aid only. The CTE of GBC is mainly determined by the crystalline component. For GCC, the CTE can be well predicted, if CTE and elastic data of each phase in the microstructure are known. A nonlinear characteristic of the CTE versus phase composition was found with increasing Ecrystals/Eglass ratio and absolute CTE difference between the components. The glass composition and glass amount can be used to compensate the fixed properties of a crystalline material in a desired way. However, because the CTE and permittivity of a glass cannot be chosen independently, an optimum glass composition has to be found. For a given LTCC, it is possible to control the devitrification by shifting the glass composition. In this way, the resulting CTE values can be predicted more exactly and tailoring becomes possible. Different LTCC materials, based on the crystalline compounds Ba(La,Nd)2Ti4O12, ZrO2 (Y-TZP), SiO2 (quartz), and specially developed glasses, possessing an elevated CTE of around 10 × 10-6 K-1 while showing permittivity εr between 6 and 63, are introduced.

The aim of this paper is the determination of laser-induced damage thresholds (LIDT) of fibers (FiberTech) and preforms (Heraeus Suprasil F300). Preforms served as models. They were heated up to maximum temperatures of 1100, 1300 and 1500°C and cooled down to room temperature at rates of 10 K min-1 (oven) and ~105 K min-1 (quenched in air) to freeze in various structural states simulating different conditions similar to a drawing process during the production of fibers. Single- and multi-pulse LIDT measurements were done in accordance with the relevant ISO standards. Nd:YAG laser pulses with durations of 15 ns (1064 nm wavelength) and 8.5 ns (532 nm) at a repetition rate of 10 Hz were used. For the preforms, LIDT values (1-on-1) ranged from 220 to 350 J/cm² (1064 nm) and from 80 to 110 J/cm² (532 nm), respectively. A multi-pulse impact changed the thresholds to lower values. The LIDT (1064 nm wavelength) of the preforms can be regarded as a lower limit for those of the fibers.

T1 - LTCC-Modules with integrated ferrite layers - Strategies for material development and co-sintering N2 - The integration of passive components (resistors, capacitors, inductors) into LTCC modules is a challenging task in multilayer ceramics technology. We report on multilayer assemblies consisting of combined layers of ferrite and dielectric LTCC tapes. Ni-Cu-Zn ferrites with maximum shrinkage at 900°C were processed to green tapes and laminated with dielectric LTCC tapes. Cosintering at 900°C led to multilayers with different defects such as incomplete densification of the ferrite layers, cracks, and warpage. Since ferrite tapes do not really allow compositional changes without deterioration of magnetic properties, the dielectric tape was modified with the following objectives: (i) matching of the shrinkage curves of dielectric and ferrite materials, (ii) adjusting the coefficients of thermal expansion to avoid cracking during cooling, and (iii) controlling of interface reactions. Using this concept we fabricated dense and defect-free multilayers consisting of dielectric and ferrite layers. However, compositional changes of the individual ferrite tapes require the development of a specific dielectric tape material with tailored properties.

The breakdown threshold of fibers is determined by intrinsic materials properties and parameters of the technology applied. The aim of this paper is the identification of technological parameters that are crucial for the fiber quality. Fibers were drawn from preforms of Heraeus SWU with core material F300 and a low amount of OH-. Both, the cladding (fluorine doped SiO2) to core diameter ratio (CCDR) and the drawing speed were varied. CCDR values between 1.05 and 1.4 were used. Afterwards, the laser-induced damage thresholds (LIDT) of the fibers were determined. For comparison, also samples from preforms, which underwent different thermal treatments above the transition temperature, were tested with respect to their damage resistivity. Single and multi pulse LIDT measurements were done in accordance with the relevant ISO standards. Nd:YAG laser pulses with durations of 15 ns (1064 nm wavelength) and 8.5 ns (532 nm) at a repetition rate of 10 Hz were utilized. For the fibers, LIDT values (1-on-1, 1064 nm and 532 nm) increased with growing CCDR and with decreasing drawing velocities.

A1 - Eberstein, Markus A1 - Krüger, Jörg T1 - Breakdown limits of optical multimode fibers for the application of nanosecond laser pulses at 532 nm and 1064 nm wavelength N2 - For many applications, optical multimode fibers are used for the transmission of powerful laser radiation. High light throughput and damage resistance are desirable. Laser-induced breakdown at the end faces of fibers can limit their performance. Therefore, the determination of laser-induced damage thresholds (LIDT) at the surface of fibers is essential. Nanosecond (1064 nm and 532 nm wavelength) single-shot LIDT were measured according to the relevant standard on SiO2 glass preforms (Suprasil F300) as basic materials of the corresponding fibers. For 10 kinds of fused silica fibers (FiberTech) with core diameters between 180 µm and 600 µm, an illumination approach utilizing a stepwise increase of the laser fluence on a single spot was used. For both wavelengths, the LIDT values (0% damage probability) obtained by means of the two methods were compared. The influence of surface preparation (polishing) on damage resistance was investigated. For equal surface finishing, a correlation between drawing speed of the fibers and their surface LIDT values was found. In addition to the surface measurements, bulk LIDT were determined for the preform material.

A1 - Eberstein, Markus A1 - Krüger, Jörg T1 - Influence of core diameter and coating material on nanosecond laser-induced damage threshold of optical multimode fibers N2 - Single and multi pulse laser-induced damage thresholds (LIDT) of core, cladding, and coating materials of high-power optical multimode fibers were determined in accordance with ISO 11254 for 532 nm and 1064 nm wavelength in the 10-ns pulse duration regime with spatial Gaussian beam shape. For all-silica fibers, LIDT increases with rising core diameter in a range between 100-600 µm for a constant cladding-core ratio of 1.2. The damage resistance of the low refracting cladding (0.3 % fluorine doped fused silica) is comparable to the undoped SiO2 core. Coating materials show significantly lower LIDT than light-guiding parts of the fibers.
