Laser Micromachining Tool

Lasertool microSTRUCT vario (3D-Micromac AG)
Inside lasertool

The Laser Micromachining Tool is a microSTRUCT vario from the company 3D-Micromac AG.

The machine is located in the basement of building 346 under the cleanroom.

The user manual(s), user APV(s), technical information and contact information can be found in LabManager: [1]

It is equipped with 2 high power lasers:

  • a 50W picosecond laser that can emit light at 3 wavelengths: 355nm, 532nm and 1064nm (Time-Bandwidth Products, Fuego/Duetto. See some details in this article: [2] )
    and a
  • a 100W nanosecond laser with a wavelength of 1064nm (IPG Laser YLP-HP series).

The system is able to produce micro structures in different kinds of materials like metals, ceramics, composite materials, etc. It can produce features down to ~10µm size over a large area. It can scan over an area of up to ~15x15cm without moving the sample. By moving the sample on the large x-y-stage this area can be extended by stitching.

Laser Processing details

Material Optics Frequency Intensity Power measured @10% Writing speed Number of burst Number of Z-offset Number of iteration Number of parallel lines Gap in between line Parameter file Comments
Silicon 525µm Green(532nm/255mm) 200 kHz 100% 0,57 W 50 mm/s 1 burst none 4 1 N/A Silicon dicing green parameters Easily break silicon in cristal plan. Depth of the groove : 25µm
Silicon (525µm) + Si3N4 (150nm to 1,2µm) OR SiO2 (150nm to 320nm) Red (1064nm/255mm) 200 kHz 100% 2,8 W 1000 mm/s 3 bursts 1 (-0,3mm) 350/100 4 50 µm Silicon nitride cutting parameters Samples can easily be removed with a soft mecanical pressure. A layer of resist (AZMIR701) can be deposited on the top without influence the dicing. However, the burnt resist may induce cracks that can propagate, under the influence of the number of iteration. The blue tape may sticks to the wafer a the end of the process.

The parameter filename extension is here set to .doc because of MediaWiki restrictions. The 3DMM laser software uses .par as parameter file extension.
The file should be a pure text-file with no formatting codes etc.
