摘要
Vacuum UV laser micromachining is used to produce rnicrostructures; in common photonics materials. The ablation etch rates of lithium niobate, fused silica and indium phosphide are measured at 157nm and angled facets and v-grooves are machined into the materials using a high NA mask projection system. The applicability of such micromachined structures for photonics devices is discussed and future developments outlined.
