Laser Ablation Of Silicon Surfaces : The Effects Of A Low Level Background Light, Taposh Kumar Gayen
Theses
The performance of high speed optoelectronic and microelectronic devices largely depends on the uniqueness and development of the fabrication technology. Laser ablation has proven to be an effective three dimensional surface patterning technology. In this thesis, we present findings on the patterning of semiconductor surfaces using laser ablation in air as well as in solutions.
In this thesis, we suggest that the depth of a pattern induced on silicon by firing a pulsed excimer laser in air varies almost linearly with the number of pulses. We report that a He-Ne laser as a background light source has virtually little or …
