A gas permeable glass window, suitable for use with liquid interface additive manufacturing, has an optically transparent glass article greater than about 0.5 millimeters in thickness defining a first surface and a second surface. A plurality of gas channels are disposed through the article from the first surface to the second surface. The gas channels occupy less than about 1.0% of a surface area of the article and are configured such that the article has a gas permeability between about 10 barrers and about 2000 barrers.

Provided is a laser shock peening method for obtaining a large-area uniform surface morphology. Using the relationship between the thickness of an absorption layer and a plastic deformation due to the laser shock peening and using a grid-shaped absorption layer (5) having a staggered distribution in thickness in cooperation with a two-layer interlaced laser shock processing method significantly reduce the height difference between micro-protrusions (10) and micro-pits (12) produced by an impact of a square light spot, and effectively reduce the roughness of the workpiece surface such that a large-area uniform surface morphology is formed on the workpiece surface.

A system includes a laser source, a galvanometer mirror system, an f-theta scan lens and an acousto-optic deflector (AOD) system. The AOD system is operated to deflect a beam path along which a laser beam propagates in a manner that corrects for scan field distortion induced by one or both of the f-theta lens and galvanometer mirror system.

Proposed is a method of processing a superfine blade edge using a femtosecond laser, the method including primarily grinding a blade edge portion by using a grinding wheel, the blade edge being primarily ground in a direction vertical to a rotational direction of the grinding wheel; and secondarily grinding at least a part of the blade edge portion by emitting a femtosecond laser to the ground blade edge portion in a lengthwise direction, wherein the secondarily grinding includes: oscillating the femtosecond laser; modifying the energy distribution of the femtosecond laser; aligning a central portion of the energy distribution of the femtosecond laser to an end portion of the blade edge portion; changing an advancing direction of the femtosecond laser; and emitting the femtosecond laser to the blade edge portion while moving, in the lengthwise direction of the blade, a stage on which the blade is placed.

A thermal processing apparatus and method in which a first laser source, for example, a CO.sub.2 emitting at 10.6 ?m is focused onto a silicon wafer as a line beam and a second laser source, for example, a GaAs laser bar emitting at 808 nm is focused onto the wafer as a larger beam surrounding the line beam. The two beams are scanned in synchronism in the direction of the narrow dimension of the line beam to create a narrow heating pulse from the line beam when activated by the larger beam. The energy of GaAs radiation is greater than the silicon bandgap energy and creates free carriers. The energy of the CO.sub.2 radiation is less than the silicon bandgap energy so silicon is otherwise transparent to it, but the long wavelength radiation is absorbed by the free carriers.

If an optical path length of an optical system is reduced and a length of a laser light on an irradiation surface is increased, there occurs curvature of field which is a phenomenon that a convergent position deviates depending on an incident angle or incident position of a laser light with respect to a lens. To avoid this phenomenon, an optical element having a negative power such as a concave lens or a concave cylindrical lens is inserted to regulate the optical path length of the laser light and a convergent position is made coincident with a irradiation surface to form an image on the irradiation surface.

The present invention is characterized in that by laser beam being slantly incident to the convex lens, an aberration such as astigmatism or the like is occurred, and the shape of the laser beam is made linear on the irradiation surface or in its neighborhood. Since the present invention has a very simple configuration, the optical adjustment is easier, and the device becomes compact in size. Furthermore, since the beam is slantly incident with respect to the irradiated body, the return beam can be prevented.
