Newport develops micromachining workstation

Newport Corporation has introduced a micromachining workstation specifically designed for high-precision laser direct writing (LDW) and patterning.

The device can be integrated with several lasers to produce two- or three-dimensional patterning and writing on virtually any material.

It is simple to assemble and can be coupled with continuous-wave (CW), nanosecond (ns) and femtosecond (fs) lasers.

The advanced workstation can also be used to produce sub-micron resolution on large surface areas of the substrates.

The micromachining workstation can be customised with different lasers to perform surface and volume patterning in semiconductors, dielectrics and biocompatible materials.

The workstation configuration includes high-precision linear stages that allow laser direct writing with sub-micron resolution.

This solution is primarily designed for prototyping of complex two- and three-dimensional microstructures in fields such as photonics, microelectronics and tissue engineering.

Newport's workstation uses standard optics, opto-mechanics, motorised motion and the latest lasers.

Its graphical interface allows the user to create diverse patterns on many substrates and the software allows the researcher to collect and analyse the data.

Newport also offers a detailed list of compatible parts that can be used to customise the workstation to meet a user's specific application requirements.
