Laser beam machining has been known as efficient for glass micromachining. It is usually used the ultra-short pulsed laser which is time-consuming and uneconomic process. In order to use economic and powerful long pulsed laser, indirect processing called laser-induced backside wet etching (LIBWE) is good alternative method. In this paper, micromachining of glass using Nd:YAG laser with nanosecond pulsed beam has been attempted. In order to improve shape accuracy, combined processing with magnetic stirrer has been widely used. Magnetic stirrer acts to circulate the solution and remove the bubble but it is not suitable for deep hole machining. To get better effect, ultrasonic vibration was applied for improving shape accuracy.

We investigated the effect of mechanical backside damage upon minority carrier recombination lifetime measurement in Czochralski silicon substrate by laser excitation/microwave reflection photoconductance decay method. The intensity of mechanical damage was evaluated by X-ray double crystal rocking curve, X-ray section topography and wet oxidation/preferential etch methods. The data indicate that the higher the mechanical damage intensity, the lower the minority carrier lifetime, and the threshold full width at half maximum value which affect minority carrier lifetime measurement is about 13 secs.
