Challenges in Laser Micro/Nano Fabrication

  1. Super-resolution and far-field nano-imaging and fabrications;
  2. Production of active 3D meta-materials;
  3. Laser tuning of chemical reactions – fundamental understanding, applications and productivity;
  4. Controlled-taper micro drilling and cutting, high aspect ratio drilling;
  5. Debris-free materials processing;
  6. Dissimilar material micro-welding (e.g. batteries);
  7. Understanding and controlling thermal loading;
  8. Laser production of next-generation batteries;
  9. Phase control in materials;
  10. In situ functionalization.
