Two different experiments were conducted to characterize effect of laser beam shape (Gaussian Vs flattop) and laser beam quality (high Vs low M2 ) on process depth of focus. Electrically isolating scribes were machined in Molybdenum and SnO2 thin films deposited on a glass substrate at various defocus positions. Scribes quality and electrical resistance were characterized to determine acceptable process depth of focus.
