Direct Integration of Micromachined Pipettes in a Flow Channel for Single DNA Molecule Study by Optical Tweezers [PDF]
We have developed a micromachined flow cell consisting of a flow channel integrated with micropipettes. The flow cell is used in combination with an optical trap setup (optical tweezers) to study mechanical and structural properties of λ-DNA molecules ...

Mode-selective toroidal mirrors for unstable resonator planar waveguide and thin slab solid-state lasers [PDF]
In this paper, two new fabrication methods are developed for highly curved toroidal laser resonator mirrors based on laser micromachining of cylindrical substrates that already have the large lateral curvature RT provided by conventional polishing. These

Micromachining of AlN and Al2O3 Using Fiber Laser
We report on high precision high speed micromachining of Al2O3 and AlN using pulsed near infrared fiber laser. Ablation thresholds are determined to be 30 J/cm2 for alumina and 18 J/cm2 for aluminum nitride.

Laser surface texturing of a WC-CoNi cemented carbide grade: surface topography design for honing application [PDF]
Abrasive effectiveness of composite-like honing stones is related to the intrinsic surface topography resulting from the cubic boron nitride (CBN) grains protruding out of the metallic matrix.

Micromachining of Invar Foils with GHz, MHz and kHz Femtosecond Burst Modes
In this work, a burst mode laser is used for micromachining of 20 µm–250 µm thick Invar (Fe64/Ni36) foils. Holes were drilled by firing multiple pulses transversely onto the sample without moving the beam (percussion drilling).
