Research abstract
We propose a new high throughput super-black surface process that is fabricated with high pulse repetition rate high energy fs fiber laser combining with beam shaping technique. Our new approach will enable over 99% light absorption from UV to far infrared for large scale surfaces and volume manufacturing. At the end of Phase I, a large scale experiment will be demonstrated and a prototype will be delivered to show a working operation. In phase II, we will develop the process into a volume manufacturing capable of any types of shapes and materials (metals, ceramics and glasses).
