Silicon Laser Machining (cutting, drilling, resizing)

Laser Micromachining MEMS Devices

Laserod specializes in laser machining of silicon (Si).  We offer precision laser cutting, scribing, resizing, flat cutting, hole drilling, singulation and dicing of silicon and MEMS devices. Typical applications of laser machining silicon include the manufacture of MEMS devices, sensors, detectors, and solar cells.

WHY CHOOSE LASERS AND LASEROD FOR PROCESSING SILICON?

Lasers can handle Silicon's delicate structure.
Si is brittle, has a crystalline structure, and has a high vaporization temperature, none of which present a problem to laser machining. For example crystalline direction is of no hindrance to the laser.

Lasers enjoy advantages over traditional machining methods.
Diamond scribes and saws are traditionally used in straight-line silicon machining. Lasers can cut circles or any shape. Our laser's cutting edge is 10-30 microns, substantially less than EDM.

We work to low tolerances and very fine cuts.
Tolerances in our laser working of silicon run a few microns, with fineness of our laser cuts down to 5 microns (approximate laser spot size).

High power, high precision gives better results.
High laser power at a favorable wavelength focused to a small spot and the beam controlled by high precision mechanics gives superior results in cutting, scribing, and hole drilling of silicon.

How does Laserod do it better than their competition?
The people of Laserod have been performing high-quality laser machining of silicon for over 20 years.  Our quality and turn-times are among the best -- performed at very competitive prices.
