To evaluate the influence of the top-hat beam shape on defocusing, microvias were drilled at different z-positions in the range of 200 μm evenly distributed around the focal plane. The drilling quality was evaluated by laser scanning microscopy and metallography. When using a top-hat beam shape, a reduced taper of down to 26.8 \% on average is achieved compared to a Gaussian beam. For the application of 3 intra-burst pulses, we find an improvement of the taper by 11.6\% compared to the single pulse mode due to the increasing heat accumulation. Using a top-hat beam shape in combination with the MHz burst mode, an 18.2 \% reduction in laser drilling time for a microvia with a similar taper is remarkable, demonstrating the high potential for scaling throughput in electronics manufacturing.}, subject = {Pikosekundenbereich}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BischoffMueckeEsenetal.2023, author = {Bischoff, Kay and M{\"u}cke, Dominik and Esen, Cemal and Hellmann, Ralf}, title = {UV-Femtosecond-Laser Structuring of Silicon Carbide}, series = {International Congress on Applications of Lasers \& Electro-Optics (ICALEO) 2023}, booktitle = {International Congress on Applications of Lasers \& Electro-Optics (ICALEO) 2023}, year = {2023}, abstract = {We report on ultraviolet ultrashort pulsed laser processing of silicon carbide.

This contribution demonstrates and discusses novel femtosecond laser-based micromachining approaches for the fabrication of rotational-symmetric sapphire workpieces, specifically the generation of optical fibers by means of laser lathe of sapphire rods and the practical realization of windmill fibers. In addition, volume refractive index modification in planar sapphire substrates is presented to induce photonic crystal waveguides. The micromachined structures are comprehensively examined with respect to geometric fidelity, surface roughness, refractive index modification, and potential optical waveguiding properties. All micromachining approaches are done by means of frequency-doubled or frequency-tripled femtosecond laser radiation. Different laser optical setups including laser scanning head, spatial beam profilers including a spatial light modulator and axial rotatory movement of the specimen are employed for micro structuring and in-depth refractive index modifications. In particular for laser lathe, a sophisticated scanning pattern, in combination with an incremental axial rotatory movement of the specimen, allows for the precise diameter reduction of sapphire rods with 250 µm diameter to fibers with outer diameters of 25 µm. By supporting the workpiece with a V-groove fixture, multi-mode fibers with lengths up to 20 cm can be processed with an average surface roughness of 250 nm. Additionally, an adapted ablation scanning sequence enables the first practical demonstration of sapphire windmill fibers. Furthermore, using a spatial light modulator allows for the adaption of the laser propagation properties as to enable volume refractive index modifications with free-form arrangement. Hexagonal patterns of refractive index modifications surrounding a pristine waveguide core are fabricated and single-mode waveguiding at 1550 nm is verified.

This contribution demonstrates and discusses a novel concept for optical pressure sensors based on polymer planar Bragg gratings. Waveguide and Bragg grating are fabricated underneath the surface of a temperature-stable and humidity-insensitive cyclic olefin copolymer substrate by means of a femtosecond laser. Based on the employed direct-writing procedure, in combination with adaptive, in-situ beam shaping with a spatial light modulator, writing depth, i.e., location of the photonic structures within the substrate, as well as Bragg grating periodicity and positioning can be deliberately chosen. Afterwards, the polymer substrate is post-processed with a high-precision micro mill, so a diaphragm comprising the integrated photonic structures is generated. The resulting diaphragm exhibits a thickness of 300 µm and a diameter of 10 mm. Finally, the optical sensor is packaged and sealed to form an air-filled gas pocket underneath the diaphragm. Deformations of the diaphragm by external pressure changes translate to strain variations along the waveguide axis and thus perturb the Bragg grating period. This leads to changes in the grating's wavelength of main reflection, which can be evaluated in order to quantify the relative external pressure. With this straightforward optical sensor concept, pressure sensitivities up to 39 pm kPa-1, within relative pressures ranges from 78 kPa to 372 kPa, are achieved.}, subject = {Bragg-Reflektor}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KeferSchmaussHellmann2021, author = {Kefer, Stefan and Schmauss, Bernhard and Hellmann, Ralf}, title = {POLYMER PLANAR BRAGG GRATINGS BASED ON BULK CYCLIC OLEFIN COPOLYMERS: FABRICATION AND FUNCTIONALIZATION}, series = {Proceedings of Student Conference on Sensors, Systems and Measurement 2021}, booktitle = {Proceedings of Student Conference on Sensors, Systems and Measurement 2021}, isbn = {978-80-01-06822-9}, year = {2021}, subject = {Bragg-Reflektor}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RothWolfEsenetal.2019, author = {Roth, Gian-Luca and Wolf, Bastian and Esen, Cemal and Hellmann, Ralf}, title = {Generation of internal 3D microfluidic architectures in polymers by fs laser processing}, series = {Lasers in Manufacturing 2019}, booktitle = {Lasers in Manufacturing 2019}, year = {2019}, abstract = {Microfluidic lab on chip systems require components to transport, mix, separate and analyse small volumes of different fluids.

The potential of COC-PPBGs for high-temperature applications is proven by demonstrating temperature measurements up to 160 °C.

For the first time, it is shown that PPBGs based on cyclic olefin copolymers can be integrated into commercial-grade composites, thereby withstanding the demanding production processes. Pre-impregnated fibers are stacked and partially modified to form a sensor pocket. Afterwards, the CFRP specimen containing the optical sensor is cured in a heated mechanical press for 2 hours at a pressure of 7 bar and a temperature of 120 °C. A subsequent evalutaion of the sensor signal shows a Bragg wavelength shift of 1236 pm and a decline in signal amplitude of -2 dB. Three-point flexural tests of the cured sample reveal a linear behavior of the sensor signal towards external loads. The determined sensitivity in dependence of the CFRP specimen's maximum central deflection is -112 pm/mm, while correlation to the applied force results in a sensitivity of -5 pm/N.}, subject = {Bragg-Reflektor}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RungBischoffJaegeretal.2014, author = {Rung, Stefan and Bischoff, Christian and J{\"a}ger, Erwin and Umhofer, Udo and Hellmann, Ralf}, title = {Laser thin film ablation with multiple beams and tailored beam profiles}, series = {Proceedings of SPIE 8967, Laser Applications in Microelectronic and Optoelectronic Manufacturing (LAMOM) XIX}, volume = {8967}, booktitle = {Proceedings of SPIE 8967, Laser Applications in Microelectronic and Optoelectronic Manufacturing (LAMOM) XIX}, year = {2014}, subject = {Laserablation}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{JaegerRaedelBischoffetal.2014, author = {J{\"a}ger, Erwin and R{\"a}del, Ulrich and Bischoff, Christian and Umhofer, Udo and Rung, Stefan and Hellmann, Ralf}, title = {Laser micromachining - parallel processing with multiple top hat beams}, series = {8th International Conference on Photonic Technologies LANE 2014}, booktitle = {8th International Conference on Photonic Technologies LANE 2014}, year = {2014}, subject = {Laserbearbeitung}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{RungRexhepiHellmann2013, author = {Rung, Stefan and Rexhepi, Mal and Hellmann, Ralf}, title = {Beam shaping for enhanced through-put of laser ablation of transparent conductive films}, series = {Proceedings of the XXVII MicroCAD International Scientific Conference}, volume = {2013}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the XXVII MicroCAD International Scientific Conference}, year = {2013}, subject = {Laserablation}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AdelmannNeumeierSchleieretal.2015, author = {Adelmann, Benedikt and Neumeier, Benedikt and Schleier, Max and Wilmann, Eugen and Hellmann, Ralf}, title = {Optical cutting tear detection system for industrial fiber laser based cutting machines}, series = {Lasers in Manufacturing Conference 2015}, booktitle = {Lasers in Manufacturing Conference 2015}, year = {2015}, subject = {Laserschneiden}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AdelmannHellmann2015, author = {Adelmann, Benedikt and Hellmann, Ralf}, title = {Comparative study of experimentally determined and simulated mechanical strength of fiber laser cut alumina substrates}, series = {Proceedings of the 7th International Congress on Laser Advanced Materials Processing}, volume = {2015}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 7th International Congress on Laser Advanced Materials Processing}, number = {15}, pages = {1 -- 9}, year = {2015}, subject = {Laserschneiden}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RothEsenHellmann2020, author = {Roth, Gian-Luca and Esen, Cemal and Hellmann, Ralf}, title = {Internal micro structuring of transparent optical polymers by fs laser}, series = {Laser-based Micro-and Nanoprocessing XIV 2020}, volume = {11268}, booktitle = {Laser-based Micro-and Nanoprocessing XIV 2020}, publisher = {International Society for Optics and Photonics}, doi = {10.1117/12.2543487}, pages = {112681L}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Lab-on-chip systems are based on components to transport, mix, separate and analyse small volumes of different fluids. The consecutive integration of more complex functions into a single and compact chip demands on multilayer systems. As the classical production using a stacking and joining of single processed layers is elaborate and limited in terms of multilayer structures, an uprising trend to fabricate those devices is the internal, three dimensional processing of transparent substrates by using ultrashort laser pulses. In this study, we report on the generation of internal hollow architectures created by focused 514nm femtosecond laser pulses inside optical polymer bulk materials of different polymers. The three-dimensional channel layout is implemented by moving the sample using three-dimensional motorized stages, allowing arbitrary complex shaped internal channel architectures. Size and cross sectional shape of a single internal generated microchannel are determined by the intensity distribution of the focal voxel. In particular, we show a comprehensive parameter study to improve this laser process with respect to a higher processing speed and stability.}, subject = {Femtosekundenlaser}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DudutisPipirasSchwarzetal.2019, author = {Dudutis, Juozas and Pipiras, Jokūbas and Schwarz, Simon and Rung, Stefan and Hellmann, Ralf and Račiukaitis, Gediminas and Gečys, Paulius}, title = {Glass cutting by oblate-tip axicon-generated Bessel-Gaussian beams}, series = {Open Readings, 63rd International Conference for Students of Physics and Natural Sciences}, booktitle = {Open Readings, 63rd International Conference for Students of Physics and Natural Sciences}, year = {2019}, subject = {Laserschneiden}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchwarzRungHellmann2016, author = {Schwarz, Simon and Rung, Stefan and Hellmann, Ralf}, title = {Simulation of process parameters towards the generation of low spatial frequency LIPSS on dielectric materials}, series = {MultiScience - XXX. microCAD International Multidisciplinary Scientific Conference}, booktitle = {MultiScience - XXX. microCAD International Multidisciplinary Scientific Conference}, year = {2016}, subject = {Laserbestrahlung}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{LutzSchwarzRungetal.2021, author = {Lutz, Christian and Schwarz, Simon and Rung, Stefan and Marx, Jan and Esen, Cemal and Hellmann, Ralf}, title = {Optical system for multi Bessel beam high power ultrashort pulsed laser processing using a spatial light modulator}, series = {Lasers in Manufacturing - LiM 2021}, booktitle = {Lasers in Manufacturing - LiM 2021}, year = {2021}, abstract = {We report on an optical setup for multi Bessel beam processing combining a refractive axicon and a spatial light modulator. Based on their particular beam profile, Bessel beams exhibit various advantages over conventional Gaussian beams for ultrashort pulsed laser processing. Especially for micromachining of transparent materials, applications such as micro-hole drilling or the generation of voids benefit from the increased focal length of the applied Bessel beam. In addition, on account of the significantly increased average output power of industrial ultrashort pulsed lasers over the last years, there is a high demand on multi spot applications for using the available laser power in efficient production processes.
