The invention discloses a method for processing a blind hole by laser. The method combines fixed point UV laser impulse and UV laser spiral line or concentric circle scanning and is used for one-step blind hole processing or multi-step blind hole processing on multilayer circuit board.

A method for depositing a transfer material onto a receiving substrate uses a source of laser energy, a receiving substrate, and a target substrate. The target substrate comprises a laser-transparent support having a laser-facing surface and a support surface. The target substrate also comprises a composite material having a back surface in contact with the support surface and a front surface.
