Abstract
We describe the use of a crossed-beam irradiation system in three-dimensional femtosecond laser microprocessing to obtain three-dimensionally isotropic spatial resolution. In the crossed-beam geometry, two orthogonal objective lenses are arranged to share a common focal point. The synthesized focal spot produces an isotropic illumination volume. We demonstrate that microfluidic channels with substantially circular crosssectional shapes can be directly fabricated inside glass by using the crossed-beam irradiation system.
