Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Silicon (Si) is transparent for radiation longer than 1127 nm. Using tightly focused short laser pulses at infrared wavelength, 3D microfabrication via non-linear absorption processes would be possible on rare surface as well as inside the substrate. We tried to machine rare surface of a Si substrate for the first step of the 3D machining of Si. A problem was aberration of laser light due to high refractive index of Si. We tried to avoid the aberration by using an objective lens with a correction collar or using a spatial light modulator. Even using these equipment, machining of a groove on the rare surface is not achieved. Instead, fine periodic structures with 300 nm interval is formed with no change on lase-irradiated front surface. Properties and conditions where the structure is formed are elucidated. To machine the rare surface, laser-assisted wet etching using KOH solution was tried. Grooves with some micrometer deep are formed without any effect on the front surface.
