Notes:
Pulsed UV laser beams, which are widely used in the processing of polymers, offer manyadvantages in the field of polymer production, primarily because their photon energy is higher thanthe binding energy of the polymer. In particular, the fabrication of polymers with an excimer laserprocess is faster and more convenient than with other processes. Nevertheless, some problems occurin the precision microprocessing of polymers, including the formation and deposition of surfacedebris, which is produced from the breakdown of either polymer chains or radical bonds. In thepresent work, a process for eliminating carbonized surface debris contamination generated by thelaser ablation of a polymer was developed. The proposed approach for removing surface debrisutilizes an erasable ink pasted on the polymer. The surface debris ejected from the polymer is thencombined with the ink layer on the polymer. Finally, both the surface debris and the ink layer canbe removed using adhesive tape
