Vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser(VCSEL)s operating at 1.3-micron wavelength for optical communication are fabricated by using Si/SiO$_2$dielectric quater-wave pairs on both sides of the InGaAsP(${\lambda}_g$=1.3 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) gain material. VCSELs are optically pumped with a Nd-YAG laser in a pulsed mode and lasing around 1.3 microns is observed. Lasing characteristics such as threshold pump intensity as a function of mirror-reflectivity, polarization, and threshold pump density with pump spot size are investigated.

One of perspective direction of microfabrication is direct laser writing technology that allows to create metal, semiconductive and dielectric micropatterns on substrate surface. In this work, a two step method, the combination of seed forming process, in which metallic Al seed was selectively generated on AlN ceramic substrate by direct writing technique using a pulsed Nd : YAG laser and subsequent electroless Ni plating on the activated Al seed, was presented. The effects of laser parameters such as pulse energy, scanning speed and pulse frequency on shape of Alseed and conductor line after electroless Ni plating were investigated. The nature of the laser activated surface is analyzed from XPS data. The line width of this metallic Al and Ni is analyzed using SEM. As a results, Al seed line with 24㎛ width and 100㎛ isolated line space is obtained. Finally, laser direct writing can be applied in the field between thin and thick film technique in electronic industry.

The laser induced forward transfer(LIFT) technique employs a pulsed laser to transfer parts of a thin metal film from an optically transparent target onto an arbitrary substrate in close proximity to the metal film on the target. In this work, a two-step method, the combination of LIFT process, in which a Au film deposited on the $Al_2$O$_3$ substrate by Nd:YAG laser and subsequent Au electroless metal plating on the by LIFT process generated Au seed, was presented. The influence of laser parameters, wavelength, laser power, film thickness and overlap ratio of pulse tracks, on the shapes of deposit and conductor line after electroless plating is experimentally studied. As a results, the threshold power densities for ablation, deposition and metallization were determined and comparison of threshold value between the wave length 1064nm and the second harmonic generated 532nm. In odor to determine a possible application in the electronic industry, a smallest conduct spot size, line width and isolated line space were generated.

The solar panel that consists of copper plate and copper tube was successfully welded by ultrasonic seam welding. However it was not only expensive the copper material but also ultrasonic welding has many problem such as high error rate, difficulty of dissimilar material welding, noise, etc. At this study, the laser welding of solar panel with aluminum plate instead of copper. The welding were carried out with the pulsed Nd:YAG laser and the weld bead geometry was measured with the variation of pulse energy. Consequently, there was no difference between the ultrasonic and the laser welding on the performance of heat transfer capacities. Also the formation of intermetalic compound such as CuAl2 was increased with the pulse energy.

The pulsed Nd:YAG laser is the most commonly used type of solid-state laser in many fields. In material processing and medical treatment, the power density control of a laser beam Considered to be significant, which depends on the flashlamp current pulse width and pulse repetition rate. For general laser power supply to control the laser power density, the secondary of the power transformer is connected to the rectifier and filter capacitor. The output of a rectifier is applied to a switching element in the secondary of the transformer. So power supply is complicated and the loss of switching is considerably. In addition, according to increasing pulse repetition rate, charged energy of energy-storage capacitor bank is not transferred sufficiently to flashlamp, and laser output efficiency decreases. In this study, we have ...

Passive mode-locking of a pulsed Nd:YAG laser is achieved with saturable absorbers, BDN dye in iodoethane solvent and Kodak Eastman # 26 dye in 1,2-dichloroethane solvent, and its optimum conditions are investigated. The thickness of saturable absorbers employed in the laser mode-locking is 0.16~0.50mm. The PBR (peak-to-background ratio) measured in the oscilloscope is 79.8% in Kodak Eastman # 26 dye at the neighbourhood of the peak power, whereas the passive mode-locking with BDN dye gives PBR of 67.7%. BDN and Kodak Eastman # 26 dyes are superior in photostability over Kodak eastman # 9860 and # 9740 dyes which were used previously in passive mode-locking. From the PBR curve, we find that Kodak Eastman # 26dye is more effective than BDN dye in passive mode-locking. The spacing between the adjacent pulses of the pulse train, which depends on the laser cavity length, is measured and is found to be 7 nsec for the cavity length of 100cm.

The paper describes spectroscopic characteristics of plasma induced in the pulsed YAG laser welding of alloys containing a large amount of volatile elements. The authors have conducted the spectroscopic analyses of laser induced Al-Mg alloys plasma in the air and argon atmosphere. In the air environment the identified spectra were atomic lines of Al, Mg, Cr, Mn, Cu, Fe and Zn and singly ionized Mg lines as well as the intense molecular spectra of ALO and MgO formed by chemi-cal reactions of evaporated Al and Mg atoms from the pool surface with oxygen in the air. In argon atmosphere MgO and AlO spectra vanished but AlH spectrum was detected. the hydrogen source was presumable hydrogen dissolved in the base metals water absorbed on the surface oxide layer or $H_2$ and $H_2O$ in the shielding gas. The resonant lines of Al and Mg were strongly self-absorbed in particular self-absorption of the Mg line was predominant. These results show that the laser induced plasma was made of metallic vapor with relatively low temperature and high density.

The various output characteristics of a pulsed Ti:sapphire laser oscillator with a plane-parallel resonator, pumped longitudinally by the second harmonic wave of a Nd:YAG laser, and the output of a Ti:sapphire laser amplifier operated along the single path of the oscillator beam were investigated and analyzed. In the case of the oscillator, we measured the spectrum, the pulse buildup time, the temporal duration time of the pulse, and the output energy according to the variation of the pumping energy, resonator length, and the reflectance of the output coupler. And, in the case of the amplifier, we investigated and analyzed the output energy of the amplifier as a function of the time difference between the two pump beams of the oscillator and the amplifier, the pumping energy of the oscillator, and the pumping energy of the amplifier When pump energies of both the oscillator and the amplifier were 18 mJ/pulse, we could find that the output energy of the amplifier increased linearly and gradually up to the time difference of 35 ns. Finally, we determined that the slope efficiencies of the oscillator and the amplifier were 23.5 % and 11.6 %, respectively.

This paper tried to find out NO generation and removal mechanisms in the space of the atmospheric pulsed barrier discharge using laser induced fluorescence method, which is a very effective approach to the measurement of spatio-temporal density of specific molecules. The propagation velocity of the primary streamer reaches about $2.7{\times}10^6$[m/s] and the secondary streamer is produced in the vicinity of positive electrode after the primary streamer finished. In this work, pulse Nd:Yag and Dye lasers are used for generating the specific wavelength of 226[nm], which is possible to excite NO molecules into $A^2{\Sigma}^+{\rightarrow}X^2{\prod}$(0,0) and fluorescence signals as the transition of $A^2{\Sigma}^+{\leftarrow}X^2$(0,2) is measured. For the effective removal of NO molecules in the plasma discharge process, the lower oxygen contents are needed and the influence of secondary streamer for the reduction mechanism of NO molecules is important
