LiM—Lasers in Manufacturing

21–24 June 2021, CEST (Central European Summer Time) time schedule

The LiM - Lasers in Manufacturing is focused on the latest developments as well as future trends in the field of laser materials processing. The conference topics address anyone who is interested in the potential of lasers in manufacturing in theory and application.

It is the aim of the LiM to bring together international experts from research and industry in order to match scientific advances and economic needs for mutual benefit.

The LiM is organized by the German Scientific Laser Society (WLT) and a part of the World of Photonics Congress. The contact to the conference organizer is geschaeftsfuehrung@wlt.de .

We invite you to join LiM and be a part of our international community sharing ideas in inspiring talks and discussions.

Emission of X-rays during ultrashort pulse laser processing
Jörg Krüger, Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM), Germany

Abstract:
Ultrashort laser pulses have found their way into industrial material processing. They take advantage of the fact that moderate laser fluences can produce high quality material removal without significant thermal influence. The growing availability of powerful, highly repeating laser sources and an advanced laser beam control have favored these developments. However, the laser-matter interaction can be accompanied by the production of X-rays. Small doses per laser pulse can accumulate to significant dose rates at high laser pulse repetition rates which may exceed the permitted X-ray limits for human exposure. Consequently, a proper radiation shielding must be considered in laser material processing. The paper summarizes the current state of the art in the field of undesired generation of X-ray radiation during ultrashort pulse laser material processing in air.
