This article reviews the research progress of ultrafast laser micro nano processing technology in material processing, surface/interface control, and functional device manufacturing. These research results demonstrate the extensive material processing capabilities of ultrafast lasers, from altering the internal atomic structure of nanomaterials to manipulating the properties of material surfaces/interfaces. By adjusting the energy deposition of ultrafast laser processing, different processing effects on nanomaterials can be achieved, including reshaping, ablation, and interconnection. Ultrafast lasers provide an effective method to control the properties of material surfaces/interfaces, thereby achieving the construction of surface structures, impact strengthening, and strong metal carrier interactions. In addition, this technology can also produce micro functional devices, including photonic crystal devices, optical components, and electronic devices. These advances demonstrate the potential of ultrafast laser processing in both scientific and industrial fields. Ultrafast laser processing technology is still rapidly developing and will play a more important role in micro nano manufacturing in the future, bringing changes to multiple application fields.
