Abstract
Nd:YAG micro-machining workstation that allows cutting on a scale of a few microns has been developed and operated. The system incorporates a telescope viewing system that allows control during the work and a s oftware interface to translate AutoCad files. Some examples of the per formance are given. With this setup we demonstrate the possibility of machining within a few microns with a Nd:YAG laser. (C) 1998 American Institute of Physics.
