Journal ArticleDOI
Ablation and thermal effects in treatment of hard and soft materials and biotissues using ultrafast-laser pulse-train bursts
Robin Marjoribanks,Christian Dille,Joshua E. Schoenly,Luke McKinney,Aghapi Mordovanakis,Patrick Kaifosh,Paul Forrester,Zuoming Qian,Andrés Covarrubias,Yuanfeng Feng,Lothar Lilge +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that ultrafast laser pulses delivered in a pulse-train burst mode of radiant exposure can access new degrees of control of the interaction process and of the heat left behind in tissues.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Effects of heat transfer and energy absorption in the ablation of biological tissues by pulsetrain-burst (>100 MHz) ultrafast laser processing
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a laser system that delivers 1ps pulses in 10μs pulsetrains at 133MHz to study the effects of ablation on hard and soft tissue.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Ablation of hard dental tissue using ultrashort pulsetrain-burst (≫100MHz) laser
Christian Dille,Patrick Kaifosh,Paul Forrester,Aghapi G. Mordovanakis,Lothar Lilge,Robin Marjoribanks +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of irradiating dental hard tissue with an ultrashort pulsetrain-burst (≫100 MHz) laser are studied, where material modification is characterized using micro-Raman spectroscopy.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Optical coherence and beamspread in ultrafast-laser pulsetrain-burst hole drilling
Jesse Dean,Paul Forrester,Martin Bercx,David Graper,Luke McKinney,Felix Frank,Marc Nantel,Robin Marjoribanks +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a modified Michelson interferometer was used to measure transverse coherence of the beam as it propagates in a cylindrical channel, and the authors showed that as the beam propagates down the channel, it will decompose over the dispersive waveguide modes, and this will affect the beam coherence, ultimately limiting the maximum depth that the beam can reach.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Ablation of Dental Hard Tissue with an Ultrashort Pulsetrain-Burst (>100MHz) Laser
TL;DR: Effects of irradiating dental hard tissue with an ultrashort pulsetrain-burst (>100MHz) laser were studied and the effects of dividing the pulsetrains were examined.
