Micro and Nano Structuring

Our range of services

Pulsed, especially ultrashort pulsed (USP) lasers can create highly precise functional micro- and nanostructures since they have  high beam quality and introduce little heat into workpieces. This gentle type of subtractive laser material processing can be used for a variety of processes, such as patterning, ablation, drilling, cutting, or selective thin-film deposition. In contrast to many mechanical processes, the laser works almost wear-free and is highly productive.

New approaches to laser beam guidance are being tested and implemented in real systems to efficiently use high average powers – for example, in the multi-hundred watt range – in ablation processes and to increase their productivity. In one of them, parallelized multi-beam processing, the incoming laser beam is split into several individual beams. This concept has been put into practice at Fraunhofer ILT for drilling applications in filter and screen technology or for coating masks, among others. Drilling rates of up to 12,000 holes/s have already been achieved at a precision in the micrometer range. In addition to the parallelization of processes, the institute is also developing beam shaping concepts that are necessary to efficiently process glass, sapphire, ceramics, semiconductors and heterogeneous layer systems.

Micro- or nanostructures can be used, for example, in the optical industry as anti-reflective coatings or polarizers, in electronics and metrology as novel sensory elements, or in medicine and biotechnology as nanoscale particle filters.

The range of services we offer includes the development of processes and systems, feasibility studies, simulation and modeling as well as individual consulting.

The ultra-short pulse laser is seeing ever wider acceptance among industrial users as a tool for precision manufacturing. In particular, these advances are due to new developments or technological progress in system technology, which increase productivity considerably. Increasing productivity significantly was also the goal of a team from industry and research, which was awarded the Science Prize of the Stifterverband for Collaborative Research at the annual conference of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft on October 9, 2020. The team has developed a technology in which a laser beam is split into up to 16 partial beams. That means there are 16 tools controlled in parallel and individually to produce functional surfaces.

Markets

Laser technology can solve demanding tasks in many different industries. Whether as a tool in automotive production, as measuring equipment in the environmental sector, as a diagnostic or therapeutic instrument in medical technology or as a communication medium in space technology, the laser provides multiple uses with high productivity and high efficiency.
