- Description
- Although ultrafast lasers have demonstrated much success in structuring and ablating dielectrics on the micrometer scale and below, high aspect ratio structuring remains a challenge. Specifically, microfluidics or lab-on-chip DNA sequencing systems require high aspect ratio sub-10 μm wide channels with no taper. Micro-dicing also requires machining with vertical walls. Backside water assisted ultrafast laser processing with Gaussian beams allows the production of high aspect ratio microchannels but requires sub-micron sample positioning and precise control of translation velocity. In this context, we propose a new approach based on Bessel beams that exhibit a focal range exceeding the Rayleigh range by over one order of magnitude. An SLM-based setup allows us to produce a Bessel beam with central core diameter of 1.5 μm FWHM extending over a longitudinal range of 150 μm. A working window in the parameter space has been identified that allows the reliable production of high aspect ratio taper-free microchannels without sample translation. We report a systematic investigation of the damage morphology dependence on focusing geometry and energy per pulse.
