Abstract

Pulsed laser irradiation was used to recover subsurface damage and to improve subsurface integrity of curved and micro-structured silicon surfaces. A multi-axis laser processing system was developed for laser irradiation tests. The subsurface microstructural changes due to laser irradiation were characterized by cross-sectional transmission electron microscope (XTEM). The damage recovery process was modelled using finite element (FE) and tight-binding quantum chemical molecular dynamics (TB-QCMD). The results demonstrated the possibility of generating atomic level single-crystalline structures on damaged silicon surfaces by a single laser pulse.
