摘要

The possibility of the femtosecond laser structural micromodification (microlabeling) of diamond through a solid immersion layer made of Ge7Se93 chalcogenide glass at a wavelength of 1.55 μm has been investigated. The two-photon absorption coefficient of Ge7Se93 has been measured to be β2 = (0.09 ± 0.01) cm/GW, which allows the propagation of intense femtosecond laser radiation in this spectral range through realistically thin (<0.1–1 mm) immersion layers. Despite the nonlinear absorption and optical damage in the immersion volume, photoluminescent microlabels have been observed in the test writing modes in the volume of diamond, which become more uniform with decreasing exposure time and pulse energy.
