Our laboratory includes various laser systems with different specifications: Ultra-short pulse lasers with adjustable pulse durations in the range of 210 fs - 9 ps and variable pulse repetition rate. They offer advanced features and flexibility for various research applications in the field of laser micromachining and femtosecond laser lithography.
SPIRIT HE 30-SHG Laser (Spectra Physics)
CARBIDE Light Conversion Laser
Edge Wave PX-200 Laser (picosecond laser)
The lasers are combined with advanced positioning systems and scanning solutions. Ultra-precision linear motor axes from Newport and Aerotech are available, which allow precise positioning at scanning speeds of up to 300 mm/s on working fields with a maximum size of 215 mm x 215 mm. We also have several Galvo scanners from Scanlab, which enable fast and precise scanning movements at scanning speeds of up to 30 m/s. The SCANLAB XL Scan enables synchronised control of a 2D scan head and two mechanical axes. This system offers maximum precision for the micromachining of large surfaces. It offers a virtually unlimited working area and minimises errors caused by seams or connection points between the individual scan fields.
