Technical Principle

Principle of Laser Signal Transmission:

When a laser beam is focused into a micro-scale water jet and travels toward the water-air interface, total internal reflection occurs if the incident angle is smaller than the critical angle, allowing the laser to be efficiently guided forward within the water column.

Based on this principle, by precisely controlling the focal spot size and incident angle, the laser energy can propagate stably and accurately along the water jet, enabling high-quality, high-efficiency processing on the material surface.
