The Georgia Tech Optec Femtosecond Laser is an OPTEC WS-Flex USP system that uses a femtosecond laser to process practically any material through ultra-short laser pulses photo-ablation. The ultra-short laser pulse is effective on polymers, metals, ceramics, glass, single crystals, and polymorphic crystals. Materials are ionized by the laser pulse and removed from the surface in a plasma cloud, leaving a clean surface at the interaction site. Contrary to typical thermal laser operations, the femtosecond laser is not as sensitive to wavelength absorption and creates minimal thermal gradients, therefore leaving no heat-affected zones on processed materials.

Applications include cutting, milling, drilling, tube processing, composite material cutting, scribing, and surface structuring.

The Exaddon CERES μAM system prints microscale metal objects by electrodeposition. The system is optimized for printing free-standing microscale structures such as pillars, needles, coils, and lattices on existing surfaces, such as ICs or wafers.

Printing occurs at room temperature, and no post-processing is necessary. This system can print Gold, Copper, and Nickel. The printable size range is 1 μm – 1 mm, resolution < 1 μm, and structures can be located on print surfaces with <1 μm accuracy. This makes it ideal for applications in brain-machine interfaces, semiconductor surface modification, Photonics, Drug Delivery, and HF communication components.
