The ability to machine very small features in material has a wide range of applications in semiconductor microelectronics, such as laser dye etching of ICs. Femtosecond-pulse laser pulses have been shown to hold great potential for high-precision micromachining. The extremely short duration of a femtosecond pulse highly limits heat diffusion, resulting in clean and defect-free ablation, making highprecision micromachining achievable.
