Abstract
To prevent a blind crack from turning to a full body cut and to widen the width of the output of a laser beam with which the blind crack of a suitable depth can be obtained. While a laser spot LS is formed on the surface of a glass substrate 50 by continuously irradiating the surface with the laser beam at a temperature lower than the softening point of the glass substrate 50, a cooled point CP is formed within the laser spot LS, thereby forming the blind crack along the planned scribing line of the glass substrate 50. The method is capable of preventing the full body cut by forming the forcibly cooled point CP within the region of the laser spot LS and is capable of stably forming the blind crack of the suitable depth by widely securing the adequate range of the moving speed and the output of the laser beam.
Description
[technical field]
The brittle substrate of the glass substrate that the present invention system is used about flat display (to call FPD in the following text) etc. is cut apart the scribble method of using.
[background technology]
The thickness of glass substrate that FPD etc. used all has in use from 0.5mm to 3mm by different purposes.When the FPD that makes all thickness use glass substrate, generally be the employing processing procedure that is called float glass process or molten method etc.
Float glass process is to make glass float over method on the scope of freedom of molten tin metal, can make distortion less and the very excellent plate glass of flatness.According to this float glass process, can produce the glass plate of all thickness of thickness 0.5mm～10mm.The glass plate that thickness is thicker is to prevent the expansion of tin metal upper glass and produce with the carbon block piece, and the glass plate of thinner thickness then will float over the glass on the scope of freedom of tin, stretches and produces towards twocouese with roller mechanism.
On the other hand, molten method is to make to overflow from bucket and the glass of the stream that lets droop extends downwards, need not use roller, and the method that liquid is solidified with its natural face, can make the glass plate of high-precision flatness.
Will be at the glass of smelting furnace fusion, use any one of above-mentioned float glass process or molten method and the flat glass plate made, behind various processing procedures, flow on the conveyer belt, and glass plate is cut apart cutting apart processing procedure.
This is cut apart processing procedure and comprises line processing procedure and sliver processing procedure, at the line processing procedure, ties up on the ribbon glass plate of delivering on the conveyer belt, and is parallel and be vertically formed line along the conveyance direction of glass plate; At the sliver processing procedure, be along the line line that processing procedure formed, glass plate is given sliver.Carry out glass plate cut apart processing procedure the time, thin more then slow more about the conveyance speed of conveyer belt upper glass plates when sheet thickness, when sheet thickness 0.5～0.7mm left and right sides, be to be adjusted to the following conveyance speed of 100mm/s.Glass plate cut apart line that processing procedure forms under, be to form vertical slight crack continuously.
Along the line of the orthogonal direction of the conveyance direction of the glass plate on the conveyer belt and this conveyance direction, generally be that the break bar with cemented carbide or sintering diamond system forms.Yet, the method of this use break bar, the chips of glass that line is produced in forming will be attached to glass pane surface, and cause the reason of glass plate product defective, when glass plate is given sliver, may produce breach at the end face part of glass plate and cause goods bad again.
In order to eliminate the problem points that method had of this employing break bar, the scribble method that institute's motion goes out is that the heat effect by laser produces thermal deformation with the cooling effect of cooling medium on brittle substrate, and utilizes this thermal deformation to form line; The for example known method that has Japan Patent to be disclosed for No. 3027768.
At this scribble method, as shown in Figure 9, be to glass substrate 50, irradiation is from the laser beam of laser oscillation device 61.From the laser beam of laser oscillation device 61 irradiations, be on glass substrate 50, to form oblong laser point light LS along the line preset lines.From the laser beam of laser oscillation device 61 irradiations, be to move with respect to the long side direction of glass substrate 50 along laser point light LS.
Near the laser beam irradiation zone on glass substrate 50 surfaces, be forming the mode of line, from the cooling medium of the attached cooling water of cooling jet 62 sprays etc. again.On glass substrate 50 surfaces of illuminating laser beam,,, and produce tensile stress by the attached cold medium that unload of spray because of after the heating of laser beam produces compression stress.So, form tensile stress owing to produce the adjacent domain in zone in compression stress, so two interregional, because of individual other stress produces stress gradient, and, form continuous slight crack BC along the line preset lines from being pre-formed in the otch of glass substrate 50 ends at glass substrate 50.Because this slight crack BC is very small, general light be can't see with naked eyes, so be referred to as blind slight crack BC.
[summary of the invention]
When cutting apart the brittle substrate of glass substrate etc., as above-mentioned, must carry out on glass substrate, forming line the line processing procedure, and implement the sliver processing procedure of sliver along the formed line of processing procedure of ruling.Line processing procedure formed line must form proper depth, carries out sliver correctly can carry over line when the sliver processing procedure.On the other hand, if rule deeply excessively, the blind slight crack that constitutes line can extend through below the glass substrate and formation integral cutting (full body cut), and before carrying out the sliver processing procedure, made glass substrate become cutting state, because of the falling, come off etc. of the glass substrate in the conveyance way, may cause the production line of cutting apart of glass plate to stop the obstruction to wait.Therefore, the line that forms appropriate depth on the glass substrate of cutting object is suitable important.
Yet, making in the glass plate of all thickness according to different purposes, the situation of the glass plate of thinner thickness, as before, because the conveyance speed on the conveyer belt is adjusted to the following low speed of 100mm/s, the heating region of laser beam will be difficult for arriving below the glass plate, so very likely make blind slight crack become integral cutting.
When the output generation change of laser beam,,, the output change of laser beam changes so can making the depth of score that is formed produce because the degree of depth of the heating region of glass plate also can change again.Glass plate at thinner thickness, output generation change because of laser beam, can form the laser beam output of the blind slight crack of appropriate depth, little with the difference of the laser beam output that can't form blind slight crack, can form the laser beam output of the blind slight crack of appropriate depth again, with to make blind slight crack become the difference of laser beam output of integral cutting little, so the scope that is the allowed laser beam output of the blind slight crack of formation appropriate depth is narrow and small, even if at identical line processing procedure, because of laser beam output produces change, also might generate the zone that does not form blind slight crack, blind slight crack become integral cutting the zone the two.
The present invention's purpose system provides a scribble method and chalker, and it can avoid blind slight crack to become integral cutting, and can expand as the laser beam output area that obtains the blind slight crack of appropriate depth.
In order to solve above-mentioned problem, the present invention's scribble method, it is characterized in that, system is with the brittle substrate surface, heat continuously with the temperature that is lower than this brittle substrate softening point, and form cooled region within this heating region, the line preset lines along this brittle substrate forms blind slight crack by this.
Be preferably in the scribble method of the invention described above, this heating region system forms by illuminating laser beam.
Be preferably in the scribble method of the invention described above, the Temperature Distribution on this brittle substrate surface that is determined according to temperature measuring mechanism (being used for measuring the Temperature Distribution on this brittle substrate surface), and the cooling jet that will be used for forming cooled region moves to the appropriate location.
Again, the present invention's chalker, it is characterized in that, cording is equipped with: with the brittle substrate surface with the temperature that is lower than this brittle substrate softening point heating arrangements of heating continuously, cool off the cooling body on this brittle substrate surface, and cooling body moves the structure machine, with this cooling body within this heating region side or outside side shifting, and make it apart from the formed heating region of this heating arrangements end both set a distance.

Below, detailed description the present invention's scribble method and chalker.
Fig. 1 shows the skeleton diagram be used for implementing the chalker that scribble method of the present invention uses.This chalker for example is to be used for cutting off the glass substrate that the FPD substrate is used, and as shown in Figure 1, cording has the sliding stand 12 that moves back and forth in the set horizontal direction in horizontal pallet 11 upper edges (Y direction, the direction of vertical paper).
Sliding stand 12, tie up to along Y direction configured in parallel one of above pallet 11 on the guide rail 14,15, be supported for and can slide along each guide rail 14,15 with level.At the pars intermedia of two guide rails 14,15, be that the ball screw 13 that is parallel to each guide rail 14,15 is arranged to and can be rotated by motor (not shown).Ball screw 13 can be just, reverse, and screwing togather ball nut 16 on this ball screw 13.Ball nut 16 is to be set as one with state that can't rotate and sliding stand 12, by ball screw 13 just, reverse, and slide along ball screw 13 toward two directions.By this, be set as the sliding stand 12 of one, then slide toward the Y direction along each guide rail 14,15 with ball nut 16.
On sliding stand 12, pedestal 19 is configured to level.Pedestal 19 is supported to slidably guide rail 21 one of on sliding stand 12 by configured in parallel.Each guide rail 21 is to dispose along the directions X with Y direction (glide direction of sliding stand 12) quadrature.Again, at the central portion of 21 on each guide rail, be to dispose the ball screw 22 parallel with each guide rail 21, ball screw 22 can just undertaken, reverse by motor.
Screwing togather ball nut 24 on this ball screw 22.Ball nut 24 is to be set as one with state that can't rotate and pedestal 19, by ball screw 22 just, reverse, and slide along ball screw 22 toward two directions.By this, 19 of pedestals slide toward directions X along each guide rail 21.
Rotating mechanism 25 is set on pedestal 19, on rotating mechanism 25, will treats that the rotating platform 25 of mounting glass substrate 50 (cut-out object) is configured to level.Rotating mechanism 25 is to be used for making rotating platform 26 around rotation around the center line of vertical, and rotating platform 26 can be rotated in the mode that forms any rotation angle θ with the reference position.On rotating platform 26, for example by attracting chuck to fix glass substrate 50.
Above rotating platform 26, dispose in the mode of interval appropriate intervals and to support platform 31.This supports platform 31, and the optics that ties up to the vertical state keeps tool 33 bottoms to be supported for level.End system is installed in below the erecting bed set on the pallet 11 32 on the optics maintenance tool 33.Erecting bed 32 is provided with the laser oscillator 34 of the laser beam that is used for vibrating.The laser beam that laser oscillator 34 vibrated is to expose to optics to keep the tool 33 interior optical system that kept.
Exposing to optics and keep interior the laser beam of tool 33, is the glass substrate 50 that exposes to institute's mounting on the rotating platform 26 from the lower surface of optics maintenance tool 33.Keeping the optical system that kept in the tool 33, laser beam by optics is to be radiated on the glass substrate 50 in the mode along the Long Circle laser point light of set direction extension.
At the support platform 31 that is installed on optics maintenance tool 33 bottoms, be provided with the break bars 35 that are used at glass substrate 50 surface formation otch.The effect of this break bar 35 is to form slight crack (otch) along the laser beam long side direction that is shone in glass substrate 50 ends, and this otch is the starting point of blind slight crack.Again, it is held in liftable by knife flywheel holding tool 36.
Again, supporting on the platform 31,, on the 37a of this cooling jet travel mechanism, cooling jet 37 is being set to keep the mode of tool 33 that the 37a of cooling jet travel mechanism is set near optics.This cooling jet 37 can be injected into glass substrate 50 with the cooling medium of cooling water, helium, nitrogen, carbon dioxide etc.37a is removable in cooling jet travel mechanism, so that the cooling medium that cooling jet 37 is emitted can spread all over: count position from the Long Circle luminous point end of laser beam, count toward between this two positions of position of the set distance in the outside, put a CP and form cooling from the luminous point end of laser beam toward inboard both set a distances.
Again, a pair of CCD camera 38,39 is set on chalker, so that the alignment mark that patterning forms on glass substrate 50 is in advance photographed, and monitor 28,29 is set on erecting bed 32, to show each CCD camera 38,39 image of being photographed respectively.
On chalker, come formation temperature transducer (being used for detecting the Temperature Distribution on glass substrate 50 surfaces) 40 and CCD camera 45 in the mode of protecting utensil 33 and cooling jet 37 near optics respectively again.In this temperature sensor 40 light-receiving module is housed, with the infrared light of assembling the substrate surface periphery and convert to electric; Come by this to detect last laser point light LS in glass substrate 50 surfaces and the temperature of spraying the cooling point CP of attached cooling medium in non-contacting mode.CCD camera 45 is to be used for the photography signal is supplied to image processor (not icon), and this image processor system confirms the formation of blind slight crack in the mode of image processing.
Come when glass substrate 50 is implemented line by this chalker, at first, glass substrate 50 mountings that will be divided into both sizings and are fixed with attraction mechanism on the rotating platform 26 of chalker.Then, by CCD camera 38,39, set alignment mark on the glass substrate 50 of photographing.The alignment mark system of being photographed is presented in the monitor 28,29, and handles the positional information of alignment mark with the image processor (not icon) that the platform location is used.Afterwards,, there is the rotating platform 26 of glass substrate 50 to be positioned both allocations mounting, on glass substrate 50, implements line with laser with respect to supporting platform 31.When glass substrate 50 is implemented line, keep tool 33 to expose to the long side direction of the oblong laser point light on glass substrate 50 surfaces from optics, be the directions X that carries over formed line on the glass substrate 50.The location of rotating platform 26, be slip by sliding stand 12, pedestal 19 slip, and the rotation of the rotating platform 26 that produced of rotating mechanism 25 carry out.
When rotating platform 26 is finished with respect to the location of supporting platform 31, rotating platform 26 is slided along directions X, and the end face that makes glass substrate 50 is to break bar 35.Then, break bar 35 is fallen, and formed otch (TR of Fig. 2) in the end of glass substrate 50.
Afterwards, the directions X that makes rotating platform 26 carry over the line preset lines slides, and irradiates laser beam from laser oscillator 35, ejects cooling medium (for example cooling water and compressed air being sprayed together) from cooling jet 37 simultaneously.Detect the temperature data of the Temperature Distribution gained on glass substrate 50 surfaces according to temperature sensor 40, and cooling jet 37 is moved to suitable position, decide the appropriate location of cooling jet 37 by this with the 37a of cooling jet travel mechanism.Particularly, be with near the surface temperature injection place of temperature sensor 40 continuous monitorings cooling medium, when the surface temperature of glass substrate 50 during near melt temperature, i.e. position and emitted dose that control cooling medium spray the cooling jet 37 of usefulness.
Fig. 2 is the schematic isometric that shows the light beam irradiates state on the glass substrate 50 in the scribble method of the present invention that uses above-mentioned chalker; Fig. 3 is the vertical view that signal shows the physical change state on this glass substrate 50.
The laser beam that laser oscillator 34 vibrated and ties up to glass substrate 50 surfaces and goes up the oblong laser point light LS of formation.Laser point light LS shines in its major axis mode consistent with line direction to be formed.The size of laser point light LS for example is set at the Long Circle of major diameter b=17mm, minor axis a=1.4mm, but also can does suitable change.The heating-up temperature that laser point light LS is produced is the melt temperature that is lower than glass substrate 50.That is, be to be low temperature than glass substrate 50 softening points.By this, by glass substrate 50 surfaces of laser point light LS irradiation, can heat in the mode of unlikely generation fusion.
Cooling jet 37 is the cooling medium that the mode that overlaps with the rear part with laser light LS zone is sprayed attached cooling water etc., and forms a cooling point CP.As a result, can between laser point light LS and cooling point CP, produce temperature gradient.
By the zone on glass substrate 50 surfaces of laser point light LS heating, can produce compression stress; By the cooling point CP of the attached cooling water of spray, then can produce tensile stress again.So, when in the heating region generation compression stress of laser point light LS, in the cooling point CP of cooling water generation tensile stress, based on the compression stress that is produced on the laser point light LS, will produce big tensile stress in the zone of the laser point light LS opposition side that cools off some CP.Utilize this tensile stress,, can carry over line preset lines and form blind slight crack BC from the break bar 35 formed otch of glass substrate 50 ends.
Formed blind slight crack BC is quite small so, when the effect of the cooling tensile stress that medium produced disappears, almost can't see this blind slight crack BC with naked eyes.Yet, cooling water spray attached zone near owing to produce big tensile stress, be formed at the blind slight crack BC on glass substrate 50 surfaces, when observing, form the state of opening significantly in the microcosmic mode.
Generally speaking, using the blind slight crack BC degree of depth δ that said method formed, is relevant with respect to the relative moving speed V of glass substrate 50 with size, laser point light LS and the cooling point CP of laser point light LS.
The present invention's scribble method is further to spray attached cooling medium in laser point light LS, and a cooling point CP is formed in the zone of laser point light LS.By this, in the Temperature Distribution on glass substrate 50 top layers, temperature is near peak or descend midway, can force the mode of cooling form a cooling point CP with half.Therefore, when heating region that laser beam produced arrive glass substrate 50 below before, owing to glass substrate 50 is implemented cooling, and can prevent that blind slight crack BC from becoming integral cutting, this phenomenon be result from heating region arrival glass substrate 50 that laser beam produced below.Again, even if the output of laser beam produces change slightly, for example about 10W, or laser point light LS and cooling point CP produce slightly change with respect to the translational speed of glass substrate 50, also can form the blind slight crack of appropriate depth.Therefore, being used in the mobility scale that the laser light output of line allowed can strengthen, and the mobility scale that laser point light LS and cooling point CP allow with respect to the translational speed of glass substrate 50 can strengthen, and can carry out stable line.
