Description
The present invention relates to a substrate edge polishing apparatus and method using a laser, and more particularly, to a substrate edge polishing apparatus and method using a laser for polishing a cut portion by irradiating a laser on an edge region side of a cut glass substrate .
Recently, the functions of these various mobile terminals have been rapidly improved due to the remarkable development of the electronic communication technology. For example, in recent years, the functions of the mobile phones have been equipped with digital cameras, It is possible to wirelessly transmit the data, and a product having a small database function such as schedule management and editing / storing of the document is being released by expanding the memory. Meanwhile, the display screen of the mobile communication terminal is composed of a liquid crystal display device (LCD) capable of providing excellent contrast and color reproducibility and capable of mass production. In recent years, an organic light emitting diode Diodes: OLED). In addition, the mobile communication terminal includes a window plate for protecting a display screen, that is, a liquid crystal display device or an organic light emitting diode. The window plate is mainly formed of glass, and the thickness of the window plate is gradually becoming thinner due to the thinning of the mobile communication terminal and the application of the touch screen.
Further, in the process of manufacturing flat panel display devices such as LCD, PDP, and OLED, the glass substrate of the original plate is cut according to the size of each module after the laminating process of the cell process, or only the glass substrate of the top plate is selectively cut Is carried out.
Generally, the cutting of the glass substrate includes a mechanical cutting method and a laser cutting method. The mechanical cutting method uses a diamond wheel to make a lateral crack on the glass substrate and then cuts off the sharp edges by grinding.
The laser cutting method uses a laser to cut a window plate or a glass substrate. The basic principle of laser cutting is to heat the cutting substrate below the softening point using a laser, It maximizes the force and cuts by minimizing the loss of material. Such a laser thermal cutting method can be largely classified into a laser full cutting method and a scribing and laser breaking method.
In the cut portion of the above-mentioned mechanical or laser-cut glass substrate, sharp edges are generated. The sharp edges are vulnerable to an external impact and have a problem of inhomogeneity in quality. Therefore, the sharp edges should be chamfered through a grinding or polishing process (polishing process).
In the conventional case, generally, an R-edge method is used in which a sharp edge portion is machined, that is, an entire edge surface is rounded by giving a predetermined depth to the entire edge surface. However, the R-edge method increases the possibility of contamination of the glass substrate due to the generation of particles of various sizes as the processing is performed by giving the infeed amount over the whole corners, and the advantages It is difficult to maintain the same.
Another method of polishing the edge region of the glass substrate is to mechanically polish the substrate by using a polishing wheel or a polishing pad (see FIG. 1). However, in the case of mechanical polishing, the processing speed is low, There is a problem that the unit cost of processing the glass substrate increases.
In another method of the prior art, there is a fire polishing method in which a sharp edge surface of a cut glass substrate is fused by using a burner. However, in the case of such a fire polishing, unnecessary heat There is a disadvantage in that the quality of the glass substrate is deteriorated and the processing speed is low.
