Abstract

The laser-induced treatment is a physical way for changing material properties. Character and extent of the laser action are determined first of all by the radiation-flux density. At the same time it is possible to change the dimensions, shape, and electrical and optical parameters of the thin-film elements not only by direct removal of film material, but also by thermal and thermo-chemical treatment (Chap.7). An important requirement in film treatment is that laser radiation be concentrated into a zone of strictly determined shape and boundaries. This can be satisfied by two principal conditions: the use of pulsed-laser radiation and of a projection-optical set-up for the formation of the zone of interaction.
