Project description
Third-cycle subject: Electrical engineering
Femotosecond Laser 3D Micromachining for Next Generation Micro and Nanosystems
In this project we adress several research challenges in femtosecond laser micromachining, including femtosecond laser ablation and surface structuring for novel micro- and nanodevices, femtosecond laser-based 3D printing of micro and nanostructures made of different materials such as polymers, glass and hydrogels, and high-speed laser processing using spatial light modulators (SLMs), where we are exploring a new concept for a high-throughput ultrashort pulse laser processing system. The project involves both theoretical and experimental tasks. The experimental work will be conducted in the KTH laser lab and the KTH micro and nano fabrication cleanroom in Stockholm (Kista). The project engages several fellow PhD students at the Department of Micro and Nanosystems and is conducted in close cooperation with high-profile industrial partners and other research groups from inside and outside of KTH.
