- the invention has for its object an alternative device and a so
- the device preferably having a laser which has a low output and / or the target can be exchanged in a simple, process and work-safe manner and can be arrested in a geometrically defined manner in front of the laser beam.
- the device should have a compact structure and be contained in a housing.

- the grid device can be
- Beam path of the laser e.g. in the form of at least two controlled movable mirrors or wedge plates, or the raster device can be set up to move the laser itself in a controlled manner relative to a flow chamber or relative to the housing.
- the flow chamber must be detachably connected to a supply line for carrier liquid, so that the flow chamber can be replaced, e.g. against another flow chamber that has a different target and / or a different dimension.
- Raster device and a conveyor device arranged in the feed line and / or a control unit for the laser and / or a control unit for the raster device and / or a control unit for the conveyor, preferably also a storage container for
- Carrier liquid are components of the device and are further preferably arranged in a common housing which is light-tight for laser radiation from the laser.
- the raster device is preferably set up to guide the laser beam over the target at a speed of 0.1 to 10 m / s.
- the laser pulses hit the target outside of a cavitation bubble that is generated by the previous laser pulse, but still hit the target in the zone thermally influenced by the previous laser pulse.
- the thermal energy level of the target is higher than in areas that are further away from the location that was hit by a previous laser pulse.
- a focusing optical system is preferably arranged in the beam path between the raster device and the target in order to focus the laser beam on the target.
- the focusing optics can have a focal length between 20 and 200 mm, preferably a focal length in the range from 50 to 100 mm (each inclusive).
- the focusing optics is preferably set up to generate a fluence in the range from 0.5 to 10 J / cm 2 on the target, preferably a fluence in the range from 2 to 6 J / cm 2 . It has been shown that for a fluence in the range from 2 to 6 J / cm 2 there is an efficiency maximum for the removal.
- a telescope is arranged to expand the fiber beam. This has the advantage that mirrors in the grid unit are damaged less quickly.
- a fiber jet with a larger diameter can be better focused to smaller diameters.
- a telescope is therefore preferably arranged in the beam path in front of the raster unit and in the
- Beam path after the telescope especially after the raster unit, a focusing unit.
- the fiber and the raster device are preferably set up such that the fiber beam can only strike the flow chamber or only the insert in which the flow chamber is contained.
- the deflection of the raster device can be limited to the fact that the fiber beam only affects the Flow chamber or can only be directed to the insert, for example by stops that can be fixed on the housing of the device or on the insert.
- the target is e.g. a metal, preferably an alloyed or pure metal of oxidation level 0 (Me °), e.g. Gold, a platinum group metal or an alloy of at least two of these.
- the metal which can be in oxidation state 0 or as oxide, carbide or nitride, can e.g. Gold, silver, copper, platinum, palladium, nickel, iron, cobalt, manganese, titanium, aluminum, tin, zinc or a mixture of at least two of these.

- the target is preferably at a distance of 2 to 5 mm from the inside of the
- the side walls of the flow chamber which connect the radiation-transmissive wall section and the opposite wall on which the target is mounted, can be perpendicular to these two walls, convex or concave to the inner volume of the flow chamber
- the flow chamber has a distance of 2 to 5 mm between the target and the radiation-permeable wall section, which is preferably parallel to the target, which is filled by the carrier liquid during the process.
- the side walls of the flow chamber are further preferably arranged a factor of at least 1 to 2 longer, for example rectangular or as an oval.
- the inlet and outlet for carrier liquid are arranged on opposite side walls.
- the target can have edges which are rectangular to one another and which border a surface facing the laser beam, for example with edge lengths in the range from 1 to 10 mm, the longer edge preferably being arranged parallel to the flow direction of the flow chamber.
- the edge lengths can, for example, have a ratio in the range from 1: 2 to 1: 5.
