Ultrafast laser based micro-processing has opened great opportunities to produce high-quality customized 3D glass devices. Thanks to the distinct advantages of ultrafast laser processing allowing minimized thermal effect and 3D freeform shaping, this technology has been widely used in glass device fabrication towards such applications requiring high optical transparency, biocompatibility, and chemical inactivity.
In this talk, I will demonstrate a few examples on fabrication of micro-structured glass chips for sensing and chemical reaction, exploiting femtosecond laser-based fabrication which includes selective laser etching and direct laser welding. In addition, I will discuss their characterization results and evaluation of device performance quantitatively. In-fiber microstructure for saturable absorber coated with conformal graphene will also be demonstrated and evaluated via ultrafast pulse generation.
