Rodolphe Catrin from RhySearch, is the project manager of this idea.
After his 6-month feasibility study, powered by Innosuisse and conducted jointly with
The project theme of this team was direct ablation in glass using short-pulse laser radiation.
The aim of the activity was therefore to create mircochannels in glass so in industrial, technical, glass substrates in surface and to control the depth of ablation so as to be able to perform micro-channel geometries within these glass surfaces. So, the aim is really to ablate directly in the glass without any steps following ablation.
