title = "Micromachining of at cut quartz using 50 femtosecond laser pulses",
abstract = "Slots are micromachined in 75 μm thick AT cut crystalline quartz samples using 50 femtosecond laser pulses in a vacuum of 10 mTorr. The processed area is examined by optical and scanning electron microscope to determine the cut quality at the laser entrance and exit sides and also depth of cuts. Cuts with a high quality laser entrance side without microcracking could be obtained for fluence ranges from 2.5-13 J/cm2 while microcracking around the cuts is observed at 16 J/cm2 Damage on the exit side of the sample was observed for fluences above 2.5 J/cm2 within a distance of 50 μm from the center of the cut and running parallel to the cut. This may be related to stress developed during cutting.",
