ABSTRACTAn argon-ion laser based direct-writing technique was used to deposit micron-size silicon lines from the decomposition of silane (SiH4) and trisilane (Si3H8) gases. The substrates used were 0.1 μrn polysilicon/1 μ.m silicon dioxide/<100> monosilicon multilayered structures. The vertical silicon deposition rate was investigated as a function of the laser-induced surface temperature and gas pressure. For temperatures ranging between 1000 and 1410 °C, the pressure was varied in the range 5-250 mbar and 0.1-30 mbar for SiH4 and Si3H8, respectively. For both gases, three growth regimes could be distinguished according to precursor pressure. The deposition rates achieved using trisilane are far higher than those obtained with silane in spite of the use of a reduced gas pressure range. For a laser-induced surface temperature of 1300 °C and a precursor pressure of 10 mbar, the deposition rates achieved using SiH4 and Si3H8 are, respectively, 0.42 and 20 μ.m/s, representing an enhancement factor of 50 with the later.

ABSTRACTLaser direct-writing of micron-size metallic features from Pd acetate film precursors is achieved using a scanned cw Ar+ laser. Marked periodic structure is observed in these features under a wide range of exposure conditions. A model based on laser reflectivity and transmittance measurements has been developed to describe the formation of the periodic structure. The model takes into account a complex relationship between optical absorption, laser-induced heating and reaction rate. The decomposition of Pd acetate to metal is endothermic and, therefore, this system differs fundamentally from the “explosive” crystallisation of amorphous semiconductors.

Two-photon polymerization (TPP) based on the femtosecond laser (fs laser) direct writing technique in the realization of high-resolution three-dimensional (3D) shapes is spotlighted as a unique and promising processing technique. It is also interesting that TPP can be applied to various applications in not only optics, chemistry, physics, biomedical engineering, and microfluidics but also micro-robotics systems. Effort has been made to design innovative microscale actuators, and research on how to remotely manipulate actuators is also constantly being conducted. Various manipulation methods have been devised including the magnetic, optical, and acoustic control of microscale actuators, demonstrating the great potential for non-contact and non-invasive control. However, research related to the precise control of microscale actuators is still in the early stages, and in-depth research is needed for the efficient control and diversification of a range of applications. In the future, the combination of the fs laser-based fabrication technique for the precise fabrication of microscale actuators/robots and their manipulation can be established as a next-generation processing method by presenting the possibility of applications to various areas.
