Our product utilizes Laser Accelerated Controlled Etching (LACE) technology to create large numbers of through-holes on glass substrates, that will undergo coating and metallization to achieve electrical conductivity between the top and bottom layers, which can be used in semiconductor and electronics packaging.
LACE is a subtractive fabrication technique which consists of two-steps: laser modification, followed by
wet chemical etching. During modification process, ultrafast laser is employed to induce phase changes in selective regions of the glass material. In subsequent chemical etching process, these phase-changed regions exhibit high etching efficiencies which leads to the formation of through-holes.
