Funded Activity Summary

High precision material processing using ultrashort laser pulses at MHz repetition rates. The continual miniaturisation of mechanical and electronic components for biomedical, aerospace and industrial products is driving the demand for advanced fabrication techniques. Femtosecond laser micromachining in particular is emerging as a critical manufacturing process for these components and other new and unprecedented applications. The project will build up strong links between the Photonics Institute in Vienna, Austria, which is noted for their achievements in the development of femtosecond light sources, and the CLA, which has an excellent reputation for its expert knowledge in laser material processing. It is therefore believed to be beneficial for research in both countries.
