Depth progress of ultrafast laser drilling measured by means of X-ray synchrotron imaging

This dataset contains sets of video frames taken from synchrotron x-ray videos of laser drilling with an ultrafast laser in 1.4301 stainless steel. The x-ray videos show the crossectional distribution of material density and thickness in the plane of the borehole axis.<br> Each set is packaged in a multipage tiff file and contains selected video frames of a single laser drilling process. The video frames are taken from the video at a progress of the drilling depth of about every 50 µm.<br> The vertical size of the yellow rectangle in each video frame represents the manually determined drilling depth 'z_tip'. A detailed description can be found in the related publication. The dataset also includes a complementary set of tables (csv files). In each table a column contains corresponding the time stamps to each video frame in seconds and the drilling depth in µm.<br> The relation between frame number and timestamp, and the relation between the size of the yellow rectanngle and the depth in Micrometer is described in the diagram pdf file.
