METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR LASER HARD MARKING

摘要

A method and system for laser hard marking is provided. The laser­marking system produces a hard mark on a semiconductor wafer. The system includes a pulsed laser subsystem that produces a pulsed laser output for marking at a location on the wafer. The pulsed laser subsystem is controlled so that output pulse width remains substantially constant with a variation in at least one of pulse repetition rate and output energy over a range. A beam delivery system delivers the pulsed laser output to the location on the wafer.
