Laser induced copper electroless plating on polyimide with Q-switch Nd:YAG laser

The results of laser induced deposition of copper on polyimide substrate from copper electrolyte solution are reported. Unlike most work reported in the literatures where CW Ar⁺ lasers were used, a second harmonic (532 nm wavelength) Q-switch Nd:YAG laser was used for our experiments. The deposition process was conducted by laser-catalyzing of the polyimide surface and subsequent photothermal-accelerated reduction of copper-complex ions in an alkaline reducing environment. The characteristics of the deposited copper line were investigated in terms of laser beam scanning speed, and the number of scans. The surface morphology and chemical composition of the deposited copper were analyzed using field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDX). The optimum processing conditions have been identified. The copper deposit was found to adhere well to the substrate.     

Quantum chemical modeling for 157 nm photolithography

In its continuing quest for smaller length scales, the electronics industry plans to introduce 157 nm as the next lithographic wavelength. Accordingly, there is a pressing need to develop photoresists that are more transparent, and pellicles that are both more transparent and more durable. With the advent and popularization of time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT), we now have a practical quantum chemical method for calculating excitation energies and transition moments in the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) which can greatly assist in the scouting of highly transparent materials. We have performed TD-DFT calculations for a broad variety of fluorinated molecules and we will report calculated VUV photoabsorption spectra for a large family of model fluorohexanes. These calculations, which span a range from 1-fluorohexane to CH₃CF₂CF₂CF₂CF₂CH₃, illustrate some of the principles one may use to design low absorption polymeric materials.     

Untersuchungen zum Verhalten der Pt-Metalle gegenüber festen und flüssigen Kationenaustauschern mit Hilfe der Radiotracermethode

Mit Hilfe radioaktiver Nuklide wurde die Aufnahme der Pt-Metalle aus chloridhaltigen Lösungen sowoht durch feste (Wofatit KPS) als auch durch flüssige Kationenaustauscher (Bis-2-äthylhexylphosphorsäure) bei Variation des pH-Wertes, der Vorbehandlung sowie der Edelmetallkonzentration bestimmt. Pt und Ir wurden nur geringfügig, Pd und Rh dagegen deutlich stärker adsorbiert. Beide Austauschertypen zeigten qualitativ das gleiche Verhalten. Die gefundenen Abhängigkeiten der Adsorption wurden auf das komplexchemische Verhalten der Pt-Metalle zurückgeführt. Es werden Verfahren zur schnellen radiochemischen Reinigung der benutzten Nuklide angegeben.

 为了研制低损耗、高性能的193 nm氟化物增透膜,研究了基底和不同氟化物材料组合对氟化物增透膜的影响。在熔石英基底上,将挡板法和预镀层技术相结合,采用热舟蒸发方式制备了不同氟化物材料组合增透膜,对增透膜的剩余反射率和光学损耗等光学特性,以及表面粗糙度和应力等特性进行了测量和比较。在分析比较和优化的基础上,设计制备的3层1/4波长规整膜系AlF3/LaF3增透膜在193 nm的剩余反射率低于0.14%,单面镀膜增透膜的透射率为93.85%,增透膜表面均方根粗糙度为0.979 nm,总的损耗约为6％。要得到高性能的193 nm增透膜,应选用超级抛光基底。

LD-end-pumped Nd:YAP laser operating at 1341.4 nm and doubling of its frequency

We report an LD-end-pumped linearly-polarized continuous-wave (CW) Nd:YAP laser operating at 1341.4 nm. Making use of the plane-concave resonator (T = 2.4%) and the plane-plane resonator (T = 2.6%), we obtain linearly-polarized laser radiation at 1341.4 nm with a power of 3.15 and 2.86 W and corresponding optical slope efficiency of 18.4 and 17.5%, respectively. The effect of the laser oscillation mode on the output is analyzed. An experiment on the intra-cavity frequency doubling with an LBO crystal has been performed, and a laser power of 431 mW in one direction at 670.7 nm was obtained.     

Modifications of AISI 1045 steel by picosecond Nd:YAG laser at 266 nm; comparison with 532 and 1064 nm pulses

Interaction of Nd:YAG laser, operating at 266 nm wavelength and a pulse duration of 40 ps, with AISI 1045 steel was studied. Surface damage threshold was estimated to be 0.14 J/cm². The steel surface modification was studied at the laser fluence of ∼1.0 J/cm². The energy absorbed from Nd:YAG laser beam is partially converted to thermal energy, which generates a series of effects, such as melting, vaporization of the molten material, shock waves, etc. The following AISI 1045 steel surface morphological changes and processes were observed: (i) intensive damage of the target in the central zone of irradiated area; (ii) appearance of periodic surface structures at nano-level, with periodicity in agreement with the used wavelength; (iii) reduction of oxygen concentration in irradiated area; and (iv) development of plasma in front of the target. Generally, interaction of laser beam with AISI 1045 steel (at 266 nm) results in a near-instantaneous creation of damage, meaning that large steel surfaces can be modified in short times.     

微波场对(Ba,Sr)3MgSi2O8：Eu2+,Mn2+荧光粉中Mn2+ 660 nm红光能量传递的影响

研究了2.45 GHz微波灼烧(Ba,Sr)₃MgSi₂O₈：Eu²⁺,Mn²⁺荧光粉的非热效应对Mn²⁺离子660 nm红光发射强度的影响。在相同的加热温度条件下,增加微波场的输出功率,微波非热效应导致Eu²⁺离子蓝光的跃迁概率增加,Eu²⁺通过(Ba,Sr)₃MgSi₂O₈基质晶格把能量传递给Mn²⁺,进而使Mn²⁺的跃迁概率增加,导致红光发射增强。提出了一种微波场非热效应对能量传递影响的新观点,认为在微波加热过程中强微波磁场可能会对像Mn²⁺这样具有顺磁性的激活剂离子的能级结构和能量传递性质产生干扰作用。
