摘要:
A polarization module and a laser exposure apparatus have a polarization module including a first lens and a second lens that reduce a one-directional length of a cross-section of an incident laser beam having an optical axis. A polarization beam splitter divides the laser beam passing through the first and second lenses into two laser beams that are polarized in different directions with respect to each other. A first prism lens and a second prism lens emit an output laser beam by controlling the two laser beams that are divided by the polarization beam splitter to positions that are symmetrical with respect to the optical axis. At least one half wave plate is disposed between the polarization beam splitter and the first prism lens.

The present invention has as its object to provide a laser welded joint excellent in joint strength preventing a bead from cracking and comprised of exactly the number of weld beads required for joint strength and a laser welding method for the same in overlay laser welding of steel sheets forming multiple ring-shaped weld beads. The present invention is a laser welded joint excellent in joint strength preventing a bead from cracking and comprised of exactly the number of weld beads required for joint strength in overlay laser welding of steel sheets forming multiple ring-shaped weld beads, produced by a step of overlaying a plurality of metal sheets and forming a first weld bead and a step of firing a laser beam to successively form a further two or more weld beads at the outside of the first weld bead by laser irradiation, the surface hardness of the weld bead increasing from the inside bead to the outside bead.
摘要:
A system and method for precision cutting using multiple laser beams is described, The system and method includes a combination of optical components that split the output of a single laser into multiple beams, with the power, polarization status and spot size of each split beam being individually controllable, while providing a circularly polarized beam at the surface of a work piece to be cut by the laser beam. A system and method for tracking manufacture of individual stents is also provided.
摘要:
The invention is concerned with a system for performing Laser Shock Peeing on a target (100). The system includes a device (10) for generating and transmitting a laser pulse to the target (100) and a fluid source for supplying a fluid into a fluid flow path arranged between an inlet (20) and an outlet (22.1, 22.2). A solid medium (14), which is transparent to incident laser light (12), is located in the laser path so as to allow the laser pulse to pass through it. In use, the fluid flow path is sandwiched between the solid medium (14) and the target (100) during the laser shock peening process so that the fluid is in direct contact with the solid medium (14) and the target (100), thereby eliminating any air-fluid interface in the travel path of the laser pulse. The fluid is also supplied into the fluid flow path having a constant thickness such that a second shock event through cavitation in the fluid layer occurs upon the collapse of a plasmalvapour bubble generated after the laser pulse striking the target. The invention also concerns a method of performing Laser Shock Peeing using the system in accordance with the invention and, in particular, the use of the first bubble oscillation period to determine the amount of energy being delivered to the target (100). The monitoring of the energy being delivered to the target (100) provides for process diagnostics during the LSP procedure.
