Abstract

ABSTRACTA frequency doubled femtosecond Ti: sapphire laser at a wavelength of 400 nm, a pulse width of 160 fs, and a repetition rate of 1 kHz was used with a computer controlled galvo head to write periodical structures in Si <100>. Laser pulses of ∼130 nJ were focused using an objective lens of 0.65 NA. Laser parameters were optimized for efficient submicron ablation, yielding 700 nm wide by 600 nm deep lines. 1-D and 2-D periodical structures of 5 and 5x5 micron periods, respectively, were fabricated and examined using optical and atomic force microscopy. The quality of the 1-D and 2-D structures was highly depended on the light polarization orientation with respect to micromachining direction. With optimized fs laser parameters, high quality 1-D and 2-D periodical structures were obtained, which would have applications in optical devices.
