摘要
A method of controlling the focus position of the ablating laser was evaluated. This system consists of a displacement measuring unit based on the triangulation displacement measurement principle. A simple preliminary experimental setup with a light source (LED, light emitting diode) and a displacement sensor (PSD, position sensing detector) with optics and a electronic circuit, resulted in a reproducibility of a given lateral position of +/-5 mu m. A fine-tuning of the components, as well as the use of a laser diode as a light source wilt certainty improve this value.
