A 193-nm ArF excimer laser was used to induce the photodissociation of Si–O bonds of silicone rubber in order to fabricate a periodic micro/nano-suction cup silicone structure, approximately 1 μm in diameter and 2 μm in height at regular intervals of 2.5 μm. The laser was focused on Al-coated silicone rubber by each silica glass microsphere 2.5 μm in diameter, which covered the entire surface of the silicone rubber. The silicone rubber underneath each microsphere photochemically swelled after laser-ablating the coated Al to limit the diameter of the swelling. Simultaneously, the coated Al was able to adjust the focal point to the surface of the silicone rubber to form a hole approximately 500 nm in diameter, centered at the swollen silicone. The dependences of the thickness of the coated-Al and the laser pulse number are discussed, based on the observations of a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and an atomic force microscope (AFM). The superhydrophobic property of the fabricated micro/nano-suction cup structure was successfully found.

ABSTRACTSteady-state and time resolved molecular beam sampling mass spectrometry have been used to study the ArF excimer laser induced photochemistry of silaneammonia mixtures at 193 nm. Under both steady state and single laser shot conditions, products as complicated as tetraaminosilane are formed promptly. A mechanism which accounts for the formation of all observed products is proposed and evaluated.

ABSTRACTThe present work reports on the formation of GaN-containing clusters from metalorganic precursors by combining pulsed laser photolysis and pulsed nozzle methods. Ammonia (NH3) and triethylgallium (C2H5)3Ga (TEG) or trimethylgallium (CH3)3Ga (TMG) with He, Ar, or N2 as the carrier gas are introduced into a high vacuum chamber via a specialized dual pulsed nozzle source. The light from an ArF excimer laser (193 nm, 23 ns FWHM) is focused into the mixing and reaction region of the nozzle source, and the products are then mass analyzed with a quadrupole mass spectrometer. Efficient laser-assisted growth of (GaN)x-containing clusters is shown with this technique.

AbstractWe have investigated the decomposition of single-crystal InP surfaces irradiated by a 193 nm ArF excimer laser. These studies provide insight into mechanisms of thermal decomposition, surface diffusion and epitaxy. Pulsed laser exposure leads to evolution of P2 from the surface which is detected by resonance fluorescence resulting from a fortuitous overlap of the v″ = 0 with the laser frequency. P2-evolution occurs above a threshold fluence of 0.12 J/cm2 and lags the peak laser intensity by ∼20 nsec. These observations are explained by a thermally activated decomposition mechanism, as opposed to any direct, photochemical ejection process. Peak surface temperatures have been calculated and are used to predict P2 yields as a function of fluence and time which are in good agreement with experiments. These findings are also discussed in relation to previous studies of excimer laser stimulated growth of InP.
