UV Lasers Enable Smart Phones And Other Microelectronic Devices
By Coherent, Inc.

The smaller package sizes and increased functionality of today's smart phones create numerous manufacturing challenges, many of which are now being solved both with high-performance UV DPSS and excimer lasers. This article reviews a sample of the key laser-based applications used in smart phone manufacturing, as well as the laser technology that has been developed to service them with an outlook toward the future.

Product Focus
Hydrophilic Optical Coatings For Wet Conditions ZC&R now offers special hydrophilic (water loving) precision optical coatings that prevent rain and mist from beading up on the lens or window of an optical system or device. • Request Information
