We present a new technology which leads to the development of surface micro structures and a black appearance of Ti containing, commercially available glasses by irradiation with an excimer laser (ArF laser with 193 nm wavelength and 20 ns pulse duration). The technology can be accomplished in a standard air environment and does not require vacuum or inert gas.

A stretched flexible hollow fiber is proposed as a waveguide in high-energy pulse compressors. This approach leads to superior straightness virtually independent of the fiber length. It is particularly well suited for fibers with inner diameters much larger than the wavelength, where the main limitation for the fiber length is losses due to undesired fiber bending.

A method has been found for freeform shaping of optical surfaces via a stress-induced viscous deformation of glass plates. Fused silica substrates can be deformed by covering them with substoichiometric silicon oxide followed by a laser patterning process and an annealing step.

The newly developed method allows for shifting of the interference plane in the Z-direction during diffractive marking of surfaces with a grating interferometer. Plane-parallel plates are used, the rotation of which introduces a beam offset that causes a Z-shift of the interference plane when the beams are combined.

A special interference process allows the fabrication of computer-generated holography (CGH) as carrier of information which can’t be recognized with the human eye. The CGHs consist of N * M pixels which, when illuminated with coherent light, generate an imagine with the same pixel dimensions in a Fourier plane. Several CGHs can be written on the same area. When illuminated with the same coherent reading beam, they appear separately in different directions (diffraction orders).

This innovative approach combines the two known methods of Laser Induced Backside Wet Etching (LIBWE) and Stimulated Emission Depletion (STED) to realize laser based material modifications below the diffraction limit. This is especially useful for precision laser modifications of transparent materials.

Unintentional deformation of optical substrates is a common issue in optics technology. The mechanical stress in thin films can have a deleterious effect on the quality of the optical components by deforming the underlying substrate. This patent describes a figure correction method bases on stresses induced by irradiation of glass substrates with an excimer laser.

This invention is a further development to the flexible hollow fiber for pulse compression which was also developed at the Institut für Nanophotonik Göttingen e.V. (see Ref.: MM-2010-LLG). When laser light is coupled into hollow fibers, the problem often arises that parts of the light distribution can penetrate the thin wall (50-300 μm) and damage it by erosion/ablation/melting. This preconnection element provides a solution approach.

The technology describes a method to fabricate a virtually ideal wave guide for spectral broadening and high damage threshold. This is achieved by embedding a flexible hollow fiber at ideal straightness in a stretched stat in a thermally conductive solid medium, combining high transmission and high robustness even when high laser powers are coupled in. It is an advancement to the flexible hollow fiber developed at the Institut für Nanophotonik Göttingen e.V. (see reference MM-2010-LLG).
