Beam Shaping in Ultra-short Pulse Laser Processing for Enhancing the Ablation Efficiency
Abstract The increasing average power of ultra-short pulse laser systems also increases the demand of new processing strategies to optimize the volume ablation rate. High fluences do not increase the volume ablation rate linearly, but support the...
