Fabrication of high-quality and high-efficiency microchannels using parallel picosecond laser with Chemical-Assisted approach

To meet the needs of the increasing number of analytical and biomedical applications , a high-quality and high-efficiency microchannel parallel fabrication method is proposed for K9 glass by picosecond laser . Microchannels obtained by this method have a 79% width uniform and an 84% depth uniform. Laser parameters dependency is clarified. Furthermore, a high-temperature chemical-assisted etching process is used to reduce the surface roughness characteristic of Sa to 75%. Four or more beam points can be generated to simultaneously process more extreme quality microchannels by this method, which can be realized in the future.

Abstract

To meet the needs of the increasing number of analytical and biomedical applications , a high-quality and high-efficiency microchannel parallel fabrication method is proposed for K9 glass by picosecond laser . Microchannels obtained by this method have a 79% width uniform and an 84% depth uniform. Laser parameters dependency is clarified. Furthermore, a high-temperature chemical-assisted etching process is used to reduce the surface roughness characteristic of Sa to 75%. Four or more beam points can be generated to simultaneously process more extreme quality microchannels by this method, which can be realized in the future.
