摘要:
A specially shaped laser pulse energy profile characterized by different laser wavelengths at different times of the profile provides reduced, controlled jitter to enable semiconductor device micromachining that achieves high quality processing and a smaller possible spot size.
摘要:
A laser beam switching system employs a laser coupled to a beam switching device that causes a laser beam to switch between first and second beam positioning heads such that while the first beam positioning head is directing the laser beam to process a workpiece target location, the second beam positioning head is moving to another target location and vice versa. A preferred beam switching device includes first and second AOMs positioned such that the laser beam passes through the AOMs without being deflected. When RF is applied to the first AOM, the laser beam is diffracted toward the first beam positioning head, and when RF is applied to the second AOM, the laser beam is diffracted toward the second beam positioning head.

摘要:
A set (50) of laser pulses (52) is employed to sever a conductive link (22) in a memory or other IC chip. The duration of the set (50) is preferably shorter than 1,000 ns; and the pulse width of each laser pulse (52) within the set (50) is preferably within a range of about 0.1 ps to 30 ns. The set (50) can be treated as a single “pulse” by conventional laser positioning systems (62) to perform on-the-fly link removal without stopping whenever the laser system (60) fires a set (50) of laser pulses (52) at each link (22). Conventional IR wavelengths or their harmonics can be employed.

摘要:
A method and laser system effect rapid removal of material from a workpiece by applying heating energy in the form of a light beam to a target location on the workpiece to elevate its temperature while maintaining its dimensional stability. When the target portion of the workpiece is heated, a laser beam is directed for incidence on the heated target location. The laser beam preferably has a processing laser output that is appropriate to effect removal of the target material from the workpiece. The combined incidence of the processing laser output and the heating energy on the target location enables the processing laser output to remove a portion of the target material at a material removal rate that is higher than the material removal rate achievable when the target material is not heated.
