Abstract
A method of delivering optical pulses to a substrate comprises directing a focused beam from a source of optical pulses along a propagation direction onto a substrate; moving the substrate relative to the beam in a plane substantially orthogonal to the propagation direction and continuously along a first direction that includes spaced apart row locations on the substrate, and delivering a plurality of optical pulses from source as the beam reaches each row location; and between delivering the optical pulses at consecutive row locations, moving the beam relative to the substrate in one or more successive discrete movements along a second direction in the plane orthogonal to the first direction, to direct the beam to one or more spaced apart column locations on the substrate, and delivering a plurality of optical pulses from the source at each column location.
