Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03018248A1] The invention relates to a method for micromachining a workpiece (3), especially for producing a borehole in the workpiece (3), by means of ultrashort-pulse laser radiation. According to the invention, a sacrificial layer (7) is applied to a surface of the workpiece (3) in a fixed manner. Ultrashort laser pulses are then generated, said pulses penetrating the sacrificial layer (7) and removing material from the workpiece (3). The sacrificial layer (7) is removed once a sufficient amount of material has been removed from the workpiece (3).
