Sample images from various preliminary laser tests for cutting and for insulation ablation needed for precise site placements on a figure braid designed for combinatorics. (A) A cutting test on a BMEP (6 × 3 × 12.7 μm) with the line beam of Excimer laser. (B) The zoomed-in photo of (A). (C) A cutting test on a single 12.7 μm wire with the line beam of Excimer laser. (D) An insulation ablation test on a single 12.7 μm wire with the line beam of Excimer laser. (E) Insulation ablation on single 12.7 μm wire with 1W UV laser. (F) The cutting test on single 12.7 μm wire with 1W UV laser. (G) Multiple precise insulation ablation tests on an actual BMEP (6 × 2 × 9.6 μm) sample achieved with the Leica LMD7, laser microdissection system. Black gaps/dots are the insulation removal sites.
