Novel Applications of Aryltriazene Photopolymers as Sacrificial Release Layers for Laser-assisted Forward Transfer of Sensitive Materials

1 Results Key chraracteristics of high-performance photopolymers are not only their photosensitivity but also a clean and controlled photodecomposition without carbonization upon laser irradiation.Tailor-made photodecomposible polymers with UV-sensitive aryltriazene chromophores covalently incorporated in the main chain proved to have convincing laser ablation properties at low threshold fluences.An improved synthesis procedure for such metastable compounds was developed and sets of new aryltriazene pho...
