Apparatus for ablating high-density array of vias or indentation in surface of object

An imaging system for ablating a desired array of features in an object to be processed, the imaging system comprising:

• a laser for generating an outputting a coherent light beam;
• at least one expansion lens for receiving the coherent light beam, outputted by the laser, and suitably altering a diameter of the coherent light beam;
• an X-axis and Y-axis automatic repeat position for redirecting a path of the coherent light beam;
• a focusing member for receiving the redirected light from the X- and Y-axis repeat positioners and focusing the coherent light beam at a desired one of a plurality of holographic imaging segments forming a holographic imaging lens;
• and
• each one of the holographic imaging segments, comprising the holographic imaging lens, forming a desired formation in a surface of the object to be processed;
• and
• a computer for controlling operation of one or more of the laser, the X- and Y-repeat positioners, the focusing member, the holographic imaging lens, and a position of the object to be processed to facilitate ablating a desired array of features in the object to be processed.
