In semiconductor technology, lasers perform a variety of crucial tasks: From the structuring and processing of semiconductor materials such as silicon and gallium arsenide to the ablation and deposition of thin film layers and the doping and activation of materials, lasers play a central role. They are also used for processing wafers and for thermal processes such as the targeted melting of materials. These versatile applications make it possible to manufacture semiconductor components with high precision and quality, thus significantly advancing the development of modern electronic devices and technologies.
