Abstract

The invention provides a crack generation method for generating microcracks according to a material of a to-be-processed object, a cutting method using a laser and a crack generation device. A first light pulse is radiated from a first laser source to the to-be-processed object, so that a first area in which the temporarily-increased light absorption rate is formed along a preset line preset in advance inside the to-be-processed object. The first light pulse has a preset first pulse width and light intensity which enables the material of the to-be-processed object to generate multiphoton absorption. Before the temporarily-increased light absorption rate of the first area is recovered, a second light pulse is radiated onto at least one part of the first area from a second laser source and is absorbed. Thus, cracks are formed in the to-be-processed object along the preset line preset in advance. The second light pulse has light intensity which prevents the material of the to-be-processed object from generation multiphoton absorption with respect to the material of the to-be-processed object and has a second pulse width larger than the first pulse width.

On the other hand, the luminous power from the light pulse of nanosecond laser 16 is set to be less than absorption threshold value, pulse width It is set in the case where region will be increased from the optical pulse irradiation of the nanosecond laser 16 to above-mentioned absorptivity, with life Into the energy of microcrack.
Fig. 3 schematically show as more than set from the light pulse of femtosecond laser 14 and from nanosecond laser 16 Light pulse temporal relation.In the figure, the peak value from the light pulse of nanosecond laser 16 is set to than from winged The peak delay time delay tD of the light pulse of second laser 14, but the setting of time delay tD carries out as needed, is not It is required.Wherein, with regard to describing after the detailed content of time delay tD.
As an example, the parameter and time delay of the femtosecond laser 14 of the above and the light pulse of nanosecond laser 16 The setting value of tD can also be stored in advance in the storage parts such as the ROM (not shown) that is arranged at control unit 38 according to each material, and Control unit 38 reads in the time set in advance.
Next, in operation S102, by making to maintain the XYZ coordinate platform 34 of workpiece 40 relative to carrying out self-excitation The laser L relative movements of light generating apparatus 12, and make the light from femtosecond laser 14 and the light from nanosecond laser 16 exist On time or overlap in space to workpiece 40 internal irradiation, along preset lines set in advance generate it is fine Crackle.The irradiation of laser L can be carried out continuously, it is also possible to which interruption is carried out.In addition, along the laser of preset lines set in advance The irradiation of L can also as needed change the depth inside workpiece 40 and carry out repeatedly(For example, 5 times).From this The control of the irradiation of the laser L of generating device of laser 12 controls XYZ coordinate platform 34 and controls card for laser control unit by control unit 38 42 performing.
Fig. 4 schematically shows the relation between above-mentioned laser L and crackle formation zone R.SL described in the figure is represented Above-mentioned preset lines set in advance.Additionally, preset lines set in advance can be imaginary line, or in processing object The actual line for drawing in the surface of thing 40.
Record is eliminated in fig. 2, but it is also possible to after the irradiation of above-mentioned laser L, cut along preset lines set in advance Cut workpiece 40.The cutting can also be using being carried out based on the cut off operation of outside mechanical stress.
Wherein, in the present embodiment, make workpiece 40 relative relative to the laser L from generating device of laser 12 It is mobile, but be not limited thereto, it is also possible to the laser L from generating device of laser 12 is moved relative to workpiece 40 is relative It is dynamic.
In addition, in the present embodiment, arrange other cut off operation to be cut, but it is also possible to above-mentioned patent text Offer 1 identical, cut by laser irradiation.
Hereinafter, pair content related to the process chart shown in Fig. 2 is further described in detail.
For the example of the workpiece 40 that object is generated as the crackle involved by present embodiment, GaN is enumerated (Gallium nitride)、SiC(Carborundum), sapphire, the material such as glass.However, being not limited to as the material of workpiece 40 These materials, as long as absorptivity can be formed by femtosecond laser 14 and increase region and the absorptivity can be made to increase area Domain absorbs nanosecond laser 16 and generates the material of microcrack, can apply any materials.
In addition, from generating device of laser 12(Femtosecond laser 14 and nanosecond laser 16)Laser L wavelength select phase For the wavelength of the material transparent of workpiece 40.In the meaning, workpiece 40 is relative to from generating device of laser The 12 just transparent transparent materials for projecting.
First, the irradiation to femtosecond laser 14 is illustrated.
In operation S102, in order to the absorptivity that is internally formed in workpiece 40 increases region, irradiate from winged The light pulse of second laser 14, the light pulse has the sufficient energy for making that solid interior plasma or photoionization phenomenon are produced Amount.In the present embodiment, the energy density of femtosecond laser 14 not necessarily needs to be set as modifying workpiece Degree energy density(Form the energy of the degree in modification region), it is set as causing solid interior plasma or light to send a telegraph From the energy of the degree of phenomenon.
For the specific setting of femtosecond laser 14, as an example, enumerate using wavelength=1.04 μm, pulse Width(Become with the luminous power in light pulse the 1/2 of peak value part time width specifying, it is same as below.Hereinafter, sometimes The time width is referred to as into " half breadth ".)The laser of=500fs, using the optically focused of collector lens 32 of NA=0.65 into about 1.5 μm spot diameter example.In this case required energy(That is, solid interior plasma or photoionization phenomenon are caused Degree energy)About 0.01 μ J.
If workpiece 40 will be mapped to from the injection illumination of femtosecond laser 14, produce by solid interior plasma Or the self-absorption that photoionization causes(Snowslide absorbs), the absorptivity of the irradiation portion of the femtosecond laser 14 in workpiece 40 Temporarily rise.
Fig. 5 is that the time dependent survey of absorptivity in the case of the light of femtosecond laser 14 is irradiated to soda-lime glass Usual practice, in addition Fig. 6 is the time dependent measure that the absorptivity in the case of the light of femtosecond laser 14 is irradiated to SiC Example.Measure is carried out by pump and probe method.
I.e., in FIG, using a half-reflecting mirror branch part after the light from femtosecond laser 14 is just projected(Should The light for branching out is referred to as " detection light ".)And it is passed to delay loop(The delay loop different from delay loop 22)Afterwards, use PBS(The PBS different from PBS26)Deng with the photosynthetic ripple from femtosecond laser 14 and being back to same paths, and femtosecond is swashed Light 14 gives time delay(It is denoted as in Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 " elapsed time ")And workpiece 40 is irradiated to, obtain and pass through material The absorptivity of the detection light of material is simultaneously made the figure of Fig. 5 or Fig. 6.Wherein, in the measure, vibrate nanosecond laser 16.
It can be seen from the measurement result shown in Fig. 5 or Fig. 6, for soda-lime glass, SiC, femtosecond is irradiated just After laser 14(That is the vicinity in elapsed time 0), absorptivity all steeply rises, relaxes afterwards.In addition, understanding the change of the absorptivity Change, soda-lime glass terminates in 0.2ns or so, SiC terminates in 4ns or so.Therefore, it is possible to the absorptivity is changed when Between regard the duration that the absorptivity caused by solid interior plasma or photoionization rises as.Hereinafter, sometimes will The duration that the absorptivity rises is referred to as " absorptivity duration ".
Next, to determining to be said from the method for the pulse width of the light pulse of nanosecond laser 16 according to each material It is bright.
From the pulse width of the light pulse of nanosecond laser 16(Time width), being preferably set in principle can be efficient Ground gives heat to the material of workpiece 40, and until the electron excitation → lattice vibration → thermal expansion caused by the light pulse Continuous light is penetrated till scattered process is in progress.In consideration of it, it may be said that the pulse width of generally preferably nanosecond laser 16 is More than 100ps.Hereinafter, the pulse width of the actual light pulse from nanosecond laser 16 obtained by experiment is illustrated.
Fig. 7 represents that determine workpiece 40 as SiC has irradiated under certain condition from femtosecond laser 14 Light after irradiated the pulse width of light pulse in the case of the light of nanosecond laser 16, from nanosecond laser 16 and split Line produces the example of the relation between probability.It can be seen that be that 100ps Crack Nears produce probability saturation in pulse width, For the pulse width after this, crackle produces probability almost becomes steady state value.
Although not shown, if but further widen pulse width, crackle produces probability and reduces, crackle it is irradiated from The pulse width of the light pulse of nanosecond laser 16 is produced in the case of certain scope.Also, as shown in the drawing, pulse width is got over Narrow crackle is finer.
Accordingly, as an example, will can be set to crack from the pulse width of the light pulse of nanosecond laser 16 Pulse width in the range of minimum pulse width.That is, in the case where the material of workpiece 40 is SiC, can by Fig. 7 Know that the pulse width for setting nanosecond laser 16 is about 100ps.
Table 1 is the one of the minimum pulse width for cracking obtained by experiment in the same manner as described above with regard to various materials Individual example.Probability reduction is produced as the pulse width becomes more short crack, finally becomes not produce(With reference to Fig. 7).Therefore, exist The narrow region of the above-mentioned minimum pulse width of pulse width ratio also produces a certain amount of crackle, in this meaning, shown in table 1 most Small pulse width is the general value with one fixed width estimated.
Table 1
Material(Workpiece) The minimum pulse width for cracking
Quartz glass 100fs
SiC 100ps
GaN 100ps
Soda-lime glass 10ns
Experimental result according to table 1, if changing the pulse width of nanosecond laser 16 to certain material in advance and observing The crackle produced in workpiece 40, and obtain the minimum pulse width for cracking, then carrying out and its material of the same race When the crackle of material is generated, it is also possible to which the pulse width is set to into the pulse width of nanosecond laser 16.
In addition, as shown in figure 8, for multiple material, the thermal coefficient of expansion of material with can generate microcrack most There is correlation between small pulse width, so can also be according to the thermal expansion system of the material of the workpiece 40 for being cut Count to determine the pulse width of nanosecond laser 16.That is, it is also possible to predicted according to the physical characteristic of the material and determined The pulse width.
For example, according to Fig. 8, as an example, it is also possible to be in 3 × 10-6~7 × 10-6 for thermal coefficient of expansion(1/ k)In the range of material, by the pulse width set of nanosecond laser 16 be more than 10ps below 1ns, be for thermal coefficient of expansion 7×10-6(1/k)Material above, is more than 1ns below 20ns by the pulse width set of nanosecond laser 16.
Wherein, experimental result, in addition to the thermal coefficient of expansion of the material of workpiece, workpiece It has also been found that presence is related between the pyroconductivity or Young's modulus of material and the minimum pulse width that microcrack can be generated Property.
Can also make as described above according to every kind of material set nanosecond laser 16 pulse width and luminous power it is pre- It is first stored in being arranged in ROM (not shown) of control unit 38 etc..
Next, illustrating to operation S102 of Fig. 2.In operation S102, to by the light from femtosecond laser 14 Irradiation and the absorptivity that is formed locally in workpiece 40 increases region, increase the light in region in the absorptivity Before absorptivity is restored, that is, within the absorptivity duration, the light from nanosecond laser 16 is irradiated.Nanosecond now swashs The pulse width and luminous power of light 16 is the pulse width and luminous power set in operation S100.
It is preferred that making the light pulse projected from nanosecond laser 16 and the light pulse projected from femtosecond laser 14 in time or empty Between it is upper or overlap in time and spatially(Overlap).
Fig. 3 is shown with make the light pulse from femtosecond laser 14 overlapping in time with the light pulse from nanosecond laser 16 In the case of example.In figure 3, by from the peak value of the light pulse of nanosecond laser 16 relative to the light arteries and veins from femtosecond laser 14 The delay-time difference of the peak value of punching is defined as time delay tD.
In the example shown in Fig. 3, relative to the peak value of the light pulse from femtosecond laser 14, from nanosecond laser 16 The peak delay of light pulse time delay tD, but be first incident upon workpiece 40 is light arteries and veins from nanosecond laser 16 Punching.Therefore, it is overlapping in generation time in the light pulse from femtosecond laser 14 and between the light pulse of nanosecond laser 16.
Also it is shown with absorption threshold value in the lump in figure 3.As described above, in the present embodiment, by from femtosecond laser 14 The peak-settings of the luminous power of light pulse are more than the value for absorbing threshold value.In addition, by from the light of the light pulse of nanosecond laser 16 The peak-settings of power are less than absorption threshold value.
Soda-lime glass is shown in Fig. 9 and Figure 10 and changes absorptivity in the case of above-mentioned time delay tD Change.Fig. 9 illustrates the change of the absorptivity in the case of tD=0.25ns, and Figure 10 illustrates that the light in the case of tD=0.05ns is inhaled The change of yield.In Fig. 9 and Figure 10, in addition to femtosecond laser 14, go back irradiation energy and be about 1.2 μ J, pulse width about For the nanosecond laser 16 of 0.1ns.In addition, the measure of this absorptivity is carried out using above-mentioned pump and probe method.
By clearly visible with the comparison of Fig. 5, in Fig. 10, absorptivity is raised, in addition the absorptivity duration Significantly expand, on the other hand in fig .9, without obvious difference in the contrast with Fig. 5.Therefore, it can be said that Figure 10 is illustrated: The absorptivity duration of the 0.2ns produced by the optical pulse irradiation from femtosecond laser 14 or so(With reference to Fig. 5)Interior photograph A part for the energy of the light pulse from nanosecond laser 16 penetrated is processed object 40 and absorbs, by absorbing the energy by solid The self-absorption that body internal plasma or photoionization cause further continues.
In addition it is shown that:Even from the longer situation of the pulse width of the light pulse of nanosecond laser 16(For example, as One example, is the pulse width of 10ns or so)If an initial part for the light pulse is absorbed, light followed by The remainder of pulse is also absorbed, and in other words, can absorb light pulse in the whole time of the pulse width universe of light pulse.
In the present embodiment, above-mentioned time delay will be obtained according to experiment etc. according to every kind of material of processing object 40 Based on tD.
However, the fact that according to the result from Fig. 5 and Figure 10, i.e. workpiece 40 irradiated from just Start from after the light pulse of femtosecond laser 14 produce absorptivity increase, and if from nanosecond laser 16 light pulse most A first part is processed object 40 and absorbs, then the remainder of the light pulse from nanosecond laser 16 followed by also by The fact is absorbed, time delay tD independently can also for example be set as the light pulse from nanosecond laser 16 with material Pulse width(Half breadth)About 1/2.If carrying out the setting of time delay tD like this, can save in advance according to every Plant the time that material searches the absorptivity duration irradiated after femtosecond laser 14.
In addition, assuming to have irradiated workpiece 40 with time delay tD=0s the light pulse from femtosecond laser 14 In the case of the light pulse from nanosecond laser 16, it is impossible to enough first halfs for absorbing the light pulse from nanosecond laser 16, So as to waste energy, but will not also produce such problem.Additionally, the 1/2 of so-called pulse width is the general value estimated, i.e., Somewhat expansion time delay tD is set also to absorb can light pulse, it is also possible to change into other fixations as needed Value.
As previously discussed, by irradiating workpiece 40 from nanosecond laser(It is relative to workpiece 40 Bright laser)16 light pulse, the energy of the light pulse increases region in absorptivity(The region being excited)Absorbed, energy The enough inside to workpiece 40 carries out local heating.As a result, in the present embodiment, fine splitting can be generated Line.
In the present embodiment, do as described above, and along preset lines set in advance carry out femtosecond laser 14 and The irradiation of nanosecond laser 16, can continuously or discontinuously form the crackle formation zone for including microcrack.After this, Can also as needed, by being cut along the crackle formation zone based on the cut off operation of outside mechanical stress.
[second embodiment]
Present embodiment is the side in the generation direction that crackle can be further controlled on the basis of first embodiment Formula.
It is usually, each in the thermal stress of light collecting part if irradiation positive round light beam in the case where crackle is formed using laser Extend to the same sex, so crackle is produced in any direction.Semiconductor material is for example selected accordingly, with respect to as workpiece 40 Material, and carry out cutting such situation after the direction of regulation forms the connecting line of crackle, exist and produce not preferable shape The possibility of crackle.Therefore, the necessity in the generation direction of control crackle is produced.
As the method in the generation direction of control crackle, it is known to which the light concentrating shape for making light beam has directionality(For example, will The light concentrating shape of light beam is set to ellipse etc.), or 2 focal beam spots are set and the method such as them is close to be irradiated (For example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication 2011-056544 publications).
However, ultra-short pulse laser is used in the above-mentioned methods, so can not be answered come additional sufficiently heat according to material Power, therefore, it is merely able to using certain specific material.Further, since need to form oval or multiple focal beam spots, so laser It is required can quantitative change it is big.If also, using with the sufficient pulse width for extra heat stress from nanosecond laser Light pulse making generation Multiphoton Absorbtion, then the energy mutually greater than necessary with pulse, so crackle can become too much.
Even if in addition, in the case of the mixed pulses of the pulse using femtosecond laser and the pulse of nanosecond laser, when right For Femtosecond Optical Pulses and nanosecond light pulse this both sides, when being set to ellipse or being set to multiple focal beam spots, Femtosecond Optical Pulses Light energy more than one times is needed compared with the situation of single-spot, so not preferred for cheap and high speed processing.
Present embodiment is characterised by that being directed to the absorptivity produced by Femtosecond Optical Pulses increases the scope change in region Must be more wider than the scope of the focal beam spot of the Femtosecond Optical Pulses(For by rule of thumb, it is femtosecond that absorptivity increases the area in region More than 4 times of the area of the focal beam spot of light pulse), and be irradiated with single-spot using Femtosecond Optical Pulses come needed for reducing Energy, and only control nanosecond light pulse light concentrating shape, thus come carry out crackle generation direction control.
Hereinafter, present embodiment is further described in detail, first, with reference to Figure 11 and Figure 12, to swashing from nanosecond Relation between the long axis direction and direction of check of the ellipse light spot that light 16 is projected is illustrated, and Figure 11 and Figure 12 is in Fig. 1 In from the surface relative to workpiece 40 it is vertical direction observation workpiece 40 inside obtained by figure.
Such as Figure 11(a)It is shown, if in the light that projects from femtosecond laser 14 of inside optically focused of workpiece 40, in the light After processed object 40 absorbs, solid interior plasma is produced around the light collecting part and its.If making the solid interior The light pulse that plasma absorption is projected from nanosecond laser 16, then the solid interior plasma with project from the nanosecond laser 16 Ellipse light spot overlap region be heated, anisotropically spread in the region thermal stress, in the major axis side of the ellipse light spot To cracking.Therefore, such as Figure 11(b)It is shown, if irradiation for example has the oval from nanosecond laser of major axis in X-direction 16 light pulse, then crackle is in X-direction generation.
Therefore, if using with Figure 11(b)The nanosecond laser 16 of shown hot spot, and such as Figure 12(a)As shown in, one The light pulse from femtosecond laser 14 and the edge X-direction scanning machining object of the light pulse from nanosecond laser 16 one are irradiated in side Thing 40, then can with want cut line abreast crack, it is possible to obtain as present embodiment it is purpose, Preferred state in the generation of microcrack corresponding with the material of workpiece 40.On the other hand, such as Figure 12(b)It is shown, If carrying out along X-direction towards in the state of Y direction in the major axis for projecting the ellipse light spot in light from nanosecond laser 16 Scanning, then vertically crack, so not preferred with the line for wanting to cut.
As previously discussed, in the present embodiment, by the length of the light pulse from nanosecond laser 16 with ellipse light spot Direction of principal axis is set as parallel with cutting preset lines.By such structure, can be according to the material of workpiece in preferred side To generation microcrack, and can be cut in high-precision.
In addition, such as Figure 13(a)Or Figure 13(b)It is shown, it is also possible to set the cut surface of workpiece 40(Produced by cutting Raw face, XZ faces)With the longer axis parallel of the light pulse from nanosecond laser 16 with ellipse light spot(Direction of check and cut surface It is parallel).Crackle also can be made towards in preferred direction at the aspect of cutting processing object 40 according to the structure.
Also, in addition to it will be set to the method for ellipse from the hot spot of the injection light of nanosecond laser 16, as shown in figure 14, The hot spot of the injection light from nanosecond laser 16 can also be set to substantially positive round, and irradiate multiple(It is in fig. 14 2)Should Hot spot.In this case direction of check has linked penetrating from nanosecond laser 16 as being indicated by arrows in Fig., become Go out the direction of the straight line at the center of the hot spot of light.
As previously discussed, in the present embodiment, by the length of the light pulse from nanosecond laser 16 with ellipse light spot Direction of principal axis is set as parallel with cut surface.Or, the light from nanosecond laser with multiple substantially circular hot spots will be linked The direction setting of the line at the center of the hot spot of pulse is parallel with cutting preset lines.According to such structure, being capable of basis The material of workpiece generates microcrack in preferred orientations, and can carry out the cutting of fine.
