The laser can be amplified using a solid state amplifier to generate pulses with more energy while conserving the beam’s state of polarization and extremely high quality. The laser pulse can be programmed directly from a computer connected to the laser. Users can also record over 32 different pulse shapes in the laser programming circuit and retrieve them as needed. Two of these pulse shapes can be preselected and then switched out during operation in less than a microsecond.
Other applications:
This new laser has strong potential in a number of fields outside of microelectronics. Indeed, it is ideally suited to improving a multitude of processes whenever substrates or multilayered environments must be processed by allowing operators to adjust the peak power of a single pulse so that each specific layer of the substrate is processed with optimal efficiency. Moreover, for applications that require peak pulse power to vary as the total energy applied to the material increases, this laser is the perfect tool for process optimization.
