    摘要: A wavelength converter (34) such as a nonlinear crystal has an angle cut exit surface (36) to separate a harmonic wavelength from a fundamental or different harmonic wavelength. A solid optical overlay medium (28) has an entrance surface (38) that is angle cut to mate with the converter exit surface (36). The optical overlay medium (28) is substantially transparent to the fundamental and selected harmonic wavelengths, has a refractive index similar to that of the wavelength converter (34), and has damage thresholds at the selected wavelengths that are greater than the respective damage thresholds of the wavelength converter (34).

    摘要: Patterns with feature sizes of less than 50 microns are rapidly formed directly in semiconductors, particularly silicon, GaAs, indium phosphide, or single crystalline sapphire, using ultraviolet laser ablation. These patterns include very high aspect ratio cylindrical through-hole openings for integrated circuit connections; singulation of processed die contained on semiconductor wafers; and microtab cutting to separate microcircuit workpieces from a parent semiconductor wafer. Laser output pulses (32) from a diode-pumped, Q-switched frequency-tripled Nd:YAG, Nd:YVO4, or Nd:YLF is directed to the workpiece (12) with high speed precision using a compound beam positioner. The optical system produces a Gaussian spot size, or top hat beam profile, of about 10 microns. The pulse energy used for high-speed ablative processing of semiconductors using this focused spot size is greater than 200 μJ per pulse at pulse repetition frequencies greater than 5 kHz and preferably above 15 kHz. The laser pulsewidth measured at the full width half-maximum points is preferably less than 80 ns.
