Towards Direct Writing Of 3-d Photonic Circuits Using Ultrafast Lasers
The advent of ultrafast lasers has enabled micromachining schemes that cannot be achieved by other current techniques. Laser direct writing has emerged as one of the possible routes for fabrication of optical waveguides in transparent materials. In this thesis, the advantages and limitations of …

Femtosecond laser writing in transparent materials
… high index bismuth borate glass by femtosecond laser direct writing. Broadening of the transmitted light source by as much as 500 nm was demonstrated through a waveguide with a length of 1.8 cm. Finally, passive waveguide components such as Y-splitters and directional couplers have also been …

Novel Inorganic Photoresists for Three-Dimensional Microfabrication
Inorganic photoresists that can be directly patterned in three dimensions via both 3D laser direct writing and 3D interference lithography based fabrication approaches are attractive materials for the fabrication of complex microfluidic and micro-optical components such as chaotic mixing elements …

Laser direct written silicon nanowires for electronic and sensing applications
… nanowires as thin as 60 nm are synthesized using laser direct writing in combination with chemical vapor deposition, which has the advantages of in-situ doping, catalyst-free growth, and precise control of position, orientation, and length. The synthesized nanowires have been fabricated into field …

Hybrid direct write lithographic strategies for complex hierarchical structures
… morphology over a large area combined with laser direct write. The process of drawing a single line or isolated voxel can result in a hierarchical pattern defined by the latent motif of the larger-scale technique. The net result is to shift the burden of high resolution patterning from the …
