ABSTRACT:
A diode laser pumped, solid state laser-based system and related method of operation for precision materials processing and machining is described. A component of the system is a diode laser pumped, q-switched, fiber-coupled, solid state laser which produces a pulsed beam having a pulse width of approximately 50 ns or less, which width is necessary for material removal by ablation. Other components of the system include an optical subsystem such as a microscope, a stepper-motor controlled workstation, an imaging subsystem such as a video camera coupled to a monitor, and control means such as a personal computer. The system can be operated in either a manual or an automatic mode.
