Curved substrates can be micro-structured by laser ablation, which is not possible with standard lithographic methods. The novel femtosecond-pulse laser technique allows the production of defined and reproducible micro-perforations of originally analyte-impermeable membranes. The trans-membrane analyte flux can be controlled both by the variation of the laser focus diameter resulting in different areas of single perforations, and the number of perforations in arrays on small membrane areas. This leads to a higher degree of variability as well as reproducibility of the diffusion qualities of sensor membranes, and marks the main innovation with this technique compared to the hand-made mechanical perforation by specially grinded needles used up to now. Touchless micro-perforation of small membrane areas with negligible heat damage of the structures adjacent to the perforation allows the application of analyte door membranes directly onto curved surfaces of miniaturized needle-sensors assigned for in vivo glucose monitoring, for the first time.
Gradient Composite Replicas from Protein Crystal Layer Templates produced by Pulsed Laser Deposition

The interaction of nanosecond laser pulses in the ultraviolet wavelength range and femtosecond laser pulses in the near-infrared region with the semiconductor SiC and the composite compound SiCTiCTiB2 was investigated. Surface analytical techniques, such as XPS, depth profile (DP), and micro-Raman spectroscopy (?-RS) were used to identify the chemical changes between untreated and laser-treated areas. Single-pulse irradiation led to material modifications in the condensed state in most instances. Multi-pulse results differed depending on the pulse duration. Crystal structure changes were observed as a consequence of laser-induced melting and resolidification. In air contact all components underwent oxidation reactions according to thermodynamic expectations. Exceptions were observed under exclusion of oxygen, SiC was reduced to elemental Si.
Laser ablation with femtosecond pulses (130 fs, wavelength 800 nm, repetition rate 2 Hz) was compared with nanosecond-pulse ablation (10 ns, wavelength 266 nm, repetition rate 2.5 Hz) of bariumalumoborosilicate glass in air using the direct focusing technique. Different ablation thresholds and heat-affected zones were observed. The lateral and vertical machining precision was evaluated. Single nanosecond laser pulses in the far UV resulted in a bubble or a circular hole in the centre of the illuminated spot, depending on the applied fluence. The ablation behaviour in the case of near-IR femtosecond pulses contrasted to this. Bubble formation was not detected. It needed repeated pulses at the same spot to modify the surface until material removal could be observed (incubation). Cavity dimensions of less than the beam diameter were achieved in this case.
