Which mechanism limits micromachining resolution when using femtosecond laser ablation?

💡 Explanation

Heat Affected Zone formation limits precision, because energy spreads via thermal diffusion rather than being strictly confined to the focused laser spot. Therefore, feature resolution decreases, rather than non-linear effects limiting material removal.
