Abstract

See full text

A method for producing a recess or through-opening in a substrate includes applying pulsed laser radiation to the substrate. The laser radiation is focused using an optical system at an original focal depth and, by non-linear self-focusing within the pulse duration of an individual pulse, is also focused by the optical system at a focal depth different from the original focal depth. A difference between the focal depths corresponds to or is greater than the longitudinal extent of the recess or though-opening to be produced. The laser radiation modifies the substrate along a beam axis of the laser radiation in the region of the recess or through-opening, but does not result in removal of the substrate material necessary to form the recess or the through-opening. The substrate material in the modified region is anisotropically removed to produce the recess or through-opening in the substrate.
