The use of ultrafast Cylindrical Vector Vortex beams in laser-matter interaction permits to harness new ablation features from inhomogeneous distributions of polarization and beam energy distribution geometry. As a consequence, the ablation process can yield higher ablation efficiency compared to the conventional Gaussian beams. Cylindrical Vector Vortex beams prevent surface quality degradation during ablative processes. When processing stainless steel and titanium, the average surface roughness obtained by deploying Cylindrical Vector beam is up to 94% lower than the Gaussian case, and the processing efficiency is 80% higher.
