About this book
Lasers found application in materials processing practically since their invention in 1960, and are currently used widely in manufacturing. The main driving force behind this fact is that the lasers can provide unique solutions in material processing with high quality, high efficiency, high flexibility, high resolution, versatility and low environmental load. Macro-processing based on thermal process using infrared lasers such as CO2 lasers has been the mainstream in the early stages, while research and development of micro- and nano-processing are becoming increasingly more active as short wavelength and/or short pulse width lasers have been developed. In particular, recent advances in ultrafast lasers have opened up a new avenue to laser material processing due to the capabilities of ultrahigh precision micro- and nanofabrication of diverse materials.
This handbook is the first book covering the basics, the state-of-the-art and important applications of the dynamic and rapidly expanding discipline of laser micro- and nanoengineering. This comprehensive source makes readers familiar with a broad spectrum of approaches to solve all relevant problems in science and technology. This handbook is the ultimate desk reference for all people working in the field.

About the editor
Koji Sugioka (Editor-in-Chief), RIKEN Center for Advanced Photonics, Wako, Saitama, Japan
Koji Sugioka was born in 1961 in Hiroshima, japan. He received his B. S., Ms. Eng., and Dr. Eng. Degrees in electronics from Waseda University (Japan) in 1984, 1986, and 1993, respectively. He Joined RIKEN in 1986 and is currently a Team Leader of Advanced Laser Processing Research Team at RIKEN Center for Advanced Photonics. He was concurrently a guest professor at Osaka University (2018 – 2019), and a visiting professor at Kyoto University (2016 – 2017), Tokyo Denki University (2004 – 2020), and Tokyo University of Science (2016 – 2017). He was awarded the degree of Doctor Honoris Causa from University of Szeged (Hungary) in 2018.
Koji Sugioka has made important contribution to both fundamental researches on laser-matter interactions and diverse applications including practical use in the said area. He is internationally renowned for his works on laser doping, laser etching, laser surface modification, laser-induced selective metallization, microfabrication of transparent materials, VUV laser processing, laser surface nanostructuring, and 3D micro and nano fabrication. In particular, he is known as a leading scientist in the ultrafast laser processing technology. His current research interests include ultrafast laser processing for fabrication of functional 3D micro and nano systems, nanofabrication, nanostructuring and synthesis of nanomaterials, and tailored laser beam processing for high-efficiency, high-quality, super-resolution micro and nano processing.
He received 26 awards for his research, inventions and contributions in the area of laser micro and nano processing. He published more than 220 articles in international peer-reviewed journals, gave more than 190 invited talks including 15 plenary talks, 14 keynote talks, and 11 tutorial talks at international conferences, and holds 19 licensed patents. He also edited 5 books including 2 books in English, and was an author or a co-author of two books and 16 book chapters in English.
Koji Sugioka is currently a vice president of the Intl. Academy of Photonics and Laser Engineering (IAPLE), a member of the board of trustees of the Laser Institute of America (LIA), a member of board of directors of Japanese Laser Processing Society (JLPS) and the Japan Society of Laser Technology, and a Fellow of the International Society for Optics and Photonics (SPIE), the Optical Society of America (OSA), LIA, and IAPLE. He is also an editor-in-chief of Journal of the Laser Micro/Nanoengineering (JLMN), and an editor of Nanomaterials, International Journal of Extreme Manufacturing (IJEM), Opto-Electronic Advances (OEA) and Advanced Optical Technology (AOT). He organized numerous international conferences as a conference chair or co-chair, including SPIE Photonics West LASE, Conference on Laser Ablation (COLA), International Conference on Photo-Excited Processes and Applications (ICPEPA), International Conference on Applications of Lasers & Electro-Optics (ICALEO), and so on. In particular, he is also known as one of founders of International Symposium on Laser Precision Microfabrication (LPM).
