Femtosecond laser micromilling of silicon is investigated using a regeneratively amplified
775nm Ti: Sapphire laser with a pulse duration of 150fs operating at 1kHz repetition rate …

We have investigated femtosecond laser (120fs, 800nm, 5kHz) ablation of piezoceramic PZT
(Pb [ZrxTi1− x] O3). To test the reliability of used analysis methods, results are compared to …

Advanced materials are becoming increasingly important as substitutes for traditional
materials and as facilitators for new and unique products. They have had a considerable …

In this study, we report results on a piezoelectricmaterial-based mechanical energy-
harvesting device that was fabricated by combining laser machining with microelectronics …

Green manufacturing is a good approach to reduction of the production cost in the research
and development stage of a new product, especially for a rapid tooling for small volume …

Lead-free piezoelectric ceramics gained an increased attention due to their high
piezoelectric properties combined with the absence of lead and other potentially hazardous …

Smart ceramic materials are next generation materials with the inherent intelligence to adapt
to change in the external environment. These materials are destined to play an essential …

Hot embossing stamp fabricated from aluminum-filled epoxy resin can be employed for short-
run productions. However, the cooling time is much longer compared to metallic stamps due …

Micro-hot-embossing is an efficient method for manufacturing micro-components in
polymeric materials. In the fabrication of micro-components by micro-hot-embossing, a …

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) affects more than 200 million people globally. Minimally
invasive endovascular procedures can provide relief and salvage limbs while reducing …
