-General results +[[decap:laser]]
-  * Some settings work decent +
-    * Possibly COB epoxy is easier to laser than package epoxy +
-  * Risk of melting bond wires and/or die +
-    * Use lower power and/or pulsed? +
-  * Practice on samples before trying something you care about +
-  * Puts off nasty fumes. Make sure to have good ventilation+
  
-From Sam Wagner: 
-  * "We use a yterrbium fiberlaser. What you are doing is trying to cause the plastic compound to explosively eject the silicon beads. So a pulsed laser is critical.  The laser melts the plastic and the pulse hopefully causes it to vaporize and eject beads." 
-  * "Important to note that if you see silicon, you’ve destroyed the chip and can now no longer do FA work. We stop at the bond wires and use acid or plasma to remove the rest. Then it’s off to SEM or TIVA/LIVA or whatever you’re next step is."

-  * Seemed to work okay 
-  * What would it look like if touched up with WFNA?

- 
-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-x4lyX1C4q0 
-  * Gold backing block 
-  * Good leadframe exposure 
-  * Die unclear how well exposed 
-  * Scanned entire chip (including die area) up until the end 
-  * Raster scan is horizontal, vertical, and diagonal

-  * Laser Decapsulation FALIT System Software | Image Templates 
-  * Pro system demo 
-  * Has nice features like overlaying x-ray, CSAM, or other guiding image 
-  * Laser scan was horizontal, vertical mix 
- 
-===== Light Ray =====

-  * They do the whole chip but avoid die area 
-  * Light Ray - IC Decapsulation

-===== mcmaster ezlaze =====

-TODO: add pictures, estimate material removal rate 
- 
-Basically this was too slow to be practical except for very small samples. That said, it did work very well. A quicklase or other higher throughput Nd:YAG system would likely work well
