Abstract
Surface micro-structuring of fused silica glass plates was performed by single-shot irradiation with a single-mode laser beam from a diode-pumped solid state UV laser at 355 nm. Well-defined micropattern without debris and microcrack formations around the etched area was fabricated by laser ablation with a focused laser-beam in the ambient air. The time-resolved optical emission spectra of plume were measured to elucidate the ablation behavior of silica glass induced by nanosecond-pulsed laser irradiation at 355 nm where absorption of silica glass is negligibly small. This method is suitable for rapid prototyping of surface microstructuing without a clean room environment.
