Abstract: The liquid-assisted micromachining methods include methods of processing a substrate made of a transparent dielectric material. A working surface of the substrate is placed in contact with a liquid-assist medium. A pulsed laser beam is generated and separated into a plurality of beamlets that are formed into a plurality of focus spots that have a fluence to induce multiphoton absorption in the transparent dielectric material. The plurality of focus spots are moved from an initial position in the liquid-assist medium through the substrate and simultaneously moved in one or more directions perpendicular to an optical axis so that each of the plurality of focus spots independently modifies the material along a separate modification path in a continuous volume of the transparent dielectric material. The continuous volume is removed from the substrate to form a feature in the substrate. Optical components formed using the processed substrate are also disclosed.

Abstract: An article includes an optical transforming layer and a guide region positioned inside and adjacent to at least a portion of a perimeter of the optical transforming layer. The guide region comprises an inlet end positioned adjacent to a first surface of the optical transforming layer and an outlet end positioned adjacent a second surface of the optical transforming layer. The guide region propagates light from the inlet end to the outlet end such that the light is directed from the first surface to the second surface. The guide region includes a phase-separated glass comprising a continuous network phase and a discontinuous phase. A relative difference in index of refraction between the continuous network phase and the discontinuous phase is greater than or equal to 0.3%. The discontinuous phase comprises elongated shaped regions aligned along a common axis and having an aspect ratio greater than or equal to 10:1.

Abstract: A method for processing a transparent workpiece includes directing a laser beam oriented along a beam pathway through an aspheric optical element and the transparent workpiece. The laser beam impinges the aspheric optical element radially offset from a centerline axis of the aspheric optical element by an offset distance of 30% the 1/e2 diameter of the laser beam or greater. The beam pathway and the transparent workpiece are tilted relative to one another such that the beam pathway has a beam pathway angle of less than 90° relative to an impingement surface at the impingement surface and a portion of the laser beam directed into the transparent workpiece is a laser beam focal line having an internal focal line angle of less than 80° relative to the impingement surface, such that a defect with a defect angle of less than 80° is formed by induced absorption within the transparent workpiece.

Abstract: A method of marking an optical fiber that includes directing a laser beam onto a first colored layer of an optical fiber. The optical fiber includes a core and a cladding surrounding the core, the first colored layer surrounds the cladding, and the laser beam modifies the first colored layer to form one or more laser-modified regions along an outer surface of the first colored layer.
