    Abstract
  • The development of ultrafast laser technology has continuously injected new impetus into fundamental research and production, promoted the emergence of new disciplines and technologies. As a new materials welding and joining technique developed in recent years, ultrafast laser welding has attracted extensive attention due to the potential application in the fields of aerospace, precision machinery, optoelectronics, biomedical, etc.. Based on the intrinsic characteristic of non-linear space-selective energy deposition, ultrafast laser welding possesses extremely high material applicability and spatial selectivity, and can realize high-quality space-selective welding involving transparent materials with no need inserting an absorption layer. In this paper, we firstly give an overview on the progress of this field. Then, the physical mechanism, key influencing factors, and application scope of ultrafast laser welding are elaborated. At last, the future development and key challenges of ultrafast laser welding are discussed.
