1.1.Aim:
To study the interaction of femtosecond
LASER on Soda-lime glass sample
1.2.Objective:
To study the characteristics such as length,
width, roughness and aspect ratio and their
variation with the scanning speed of the
femto-second LASER.
The experimental setup
2.1.Experimental setup & specifications
The experimental setup consists of the following: The process parameters to be used in this
Galvoscanner: A galvoscanner is a device used experiment are as follows:
to steer a laser beam rapidly and precisely
across the specimen surface.
F-theta Lens: This lens helps in maintaining a
constant focusing position over the specimen,
ensuring a flat field of view.
Target (Specimen - Soda Lime Glass): The
soda lime glass specimen is the surface on
which the microfluidic channel will be
constructed.
Stepper Motor: The stepper motor controls the
movement of the xyz stage, allowing precise
positioning of the specimen.
Focusing Lens: This lens is used to focus the
laser beam onto the surface of the specimen.
Flip Mirror: The flip mirror is used to direct the
laser beam towards the galvoscanner or bypass
it, depending on the need.
XYZ Stage: The XYZ stage provides controlled
movement in three dimensions (x, y, and z) to
position the specimen accurately. Here, the power is taken to high 8W. The pulse
Micro Position Controller: This device controls repetition rate is 20 kHz and the scanning speed
the movement of the XYZ stage, enabling is varied- 20mm/s, 30mm/s and 50mm/s.
precise positioning and alignment of the
specimen.
2.2. Experimental Procedure
Beam Expander: The beam expander is used
to adjust the diameter of the laser beam, The procedure to carry out the experiment is as
ensuring it matches the requirements for follows:
micromachining.
Mirrors: Mirrors are used to redirect and guide Step-1: Cleaning the sample:
the laser beam through the optical path as
needed.
