Excimer laser photoablation

Rossieretal. [332] usedUV excimer laser photoablation to cut channels 50 microns deep by 100 microns wide in laminated PET. These channels were filled with PA, and rapid separation of proteins by isoelectric focusing was demonstrated. [Pg.543]

Rossier et al. [80] used UV excimer laser photoablation for changing the surface properties of the plastics and drilling. The authors discussed the method for patterning biomolecules on a polymer along with surface coverage of active antibodies and equilibration time. Besides, a method of designing NCE comprising an on-chip injector, column and electrochemical detector was also discussed. Furthermore, the potential of this disposable device was discussed and compared to classical systems. [Pg.37]

The irradiation of a polymer surface with the high intensity, pulsed, fer-UV radiation of the excimer laser causes spontaneous vaporization of the excited volume. This phenomenon was first described by Srinivasan (1) and called ablative photodecomposition. The attention of many researchers was drawn to the exceptional capabilities of photoablation (2). Etching is confined to the irradiated volume, which can be microscopic or even of submicron dimensions, on heat-sensitive substrates like polymers. In most experimental conditions, there is no macroscopic evidence of thermal damage, even when small volumes are excited with pulses of... [Pg.411]

A XeCl excimer laser (308 nm) was used to photoablate biodegradable polymers (PDLA and PVA) into channels (10-50 pm deep) [196],... [Pg.31]

Hydrophilicity of polymeric channels can also be increased by photoablation. For instance, polymeric channels (37 pm deep) were photoablated through a copper foil mask. Relative to the original polymer, the photoablated surface is rougher and has increased hydrophilicity. The EOF increases in the following order PC < PS < cellulose acetate < PET [194]. The excimer laser ablation has... [Pg.44]

A large number of papers has appeared on the subject of excimer laser exposure of polymer films (16-21). Most of these have dealt with the phenomenon of photoablation. A few have observed intensity dependent photochemistry (22,23). The latter authors were concerned with the effect of exposure intensity on resist development characteristics. The utility of nonlinear photochemistry for image modification has not been explored except in our earlier communication, in which strongly nonlinear irreversible bleaching was observed for KrF laser irradiation of acridine/PMMA films with lOnsec pulses (5). [Pg.232]

Photoablation of Copolymers, Other workers have also investigated the phenomenon of polysilane self-development. Zeigler and co-workers (13) have studied the self-development of a number of polysilane homo- and copolymers and found that self-development eflSciencies increase with the size of substituents. They also suggested that the material removal process for alkyl-substituted poly silanes at low fluences (<50 mj/cm per pulse) is predominantly photochemical rather than photothermal. By using a 1 1 copolymer, poly(methyl-n-propylsilane-co-isopropylmethylsilane), images were generated by excimer laser exposure at 248 nm. [Pg.447]

The use of excimer lasers and photoablation is still under consideration in research and development laboratories. However, it is clearly suitable for removing protective coatings or insulation and for certain medical applications where great delicacy is required. [Pg.10]
