- the pre-cutting may be performed with a single laser pulse for each pre-cut position such that the elongate damage regions are a single laser pulse damage regions and/or the layered material is essentially transparent with respect to single photon absorption of the laser beam such as the pulsed Bessel-like laser beam or the filament forming Gaussian beam when propagating through the material.
- the elongate damage regions may extend into a front face or a back face of the layered material, and the separation force may be applied such that the face with the damage therein is separated first.
- a Bessel-like beam with a conical half-angle ⁇ in the range from 7° to 11° (or 5° to 15°), for example set to 9° may be applied with a pulse duration in the range between 1 ps and 100 ps in single pass application of a series of laser pulses to respective pre-cut positions.
- the present disclosure discloses a method for laser cutting of transparent materials by irradiating the substrate with a pulse of a so called Bessel-like (laser) beam such as single pass cutting. Bessel-like beams show along a narrow core beam a high fluence region that is supplied with energy from radial outer sections of the beam.
- Bessel-like beams such as zero-order Bessel beams, for example, may feature an intense central spot which persists in propagation direction essentially without apparent diffraction - in contrast to the focusing of standard Gaussian beams which is usually strongly diverging after a tight focus. Accordingly, with single pulses of a Bessel-like beam, interaction zones over up to a millimeter and more may be achieved that result in very narrow needle like laser damage regions.
- the transparent materials outlines a regime that is intermediate between the filament regime and the tightly focusing regime.
- the laser pulse energy essentially propagates along the beam axis.
- the self-defocusing caused by the weak plasma is supposed to contribute to the clamping of the intensity below a limiting value.
- the tight focusing condition in contrast, all the laser pulse energy is made to converge from all directions toward a common focal point, so much so that said focusing cannot be counteracted by the plasma defocusing anymore, very high fluencies are achieved, triggering the catastrophic processes mentioned above.
- the Bessel-like beam regime therefore differs both from the filament, wherein the energy mostly flows on axis, and from the tightly focusing regime, wherein the energy flows over all the directions.
- the energy of the Bessel-like beam is not made to converge to a single (ideal) point, but to a line.
- each point lying onto the focusing line does not receive the entire energy from the pulse, but only the energy from a ring portion of the same.
- elongated damage region formed by means of single pulses of Bessel-like laser beams which may causes optical breakdown inside a needle-shaped volume, which is both very long (e.g. >50 ⁇ , >100 ⁇ , >300 ⁇ , even >700 ⁇ ) and very thin (e.g. having a diameter ⁇ 2 ⁇ , ⁇ 1.5 ⁇ , ⁇ 1 ⁇ , even ⁇ 0.5 ⁇ ), e.g. inside a needle-shaped volume having a length/diameter aspect ratio >25, >100, >500, even >1000, may provide for high precision laser cutting of transparent materials. This precision may be owed at least partly to the possibility of controlling the mechanism of energy transfer to matter, e.g.
- the shock pressure wave i.e. the wave which is believed to produce the local modification of the material, e.g. the damaging, and/or the local creation of material stress
- the produced elongated damage region may feature a volume that is larger than the volume wherein the breakdown occurs (i.e. the volume wherein the electron plasma density exceed the critical value for absorption)
- the possibility of operating in single shot regime i.e. in the absence of any thermal and or mechanical accumulation effect, plays in favor of creating a tiny needle shape damage volume too, e.g.
- the diameter of the damage volume may be ⁇ 2 times, or ⁇ 1.5 times, or even ⁇ 1 times larger than the diameter of the first zero intensity ring of the Bessel-like beam.
- a first request is that said ultra-short pulse Bessel-like beams features a large cone angle, e.g. a conical half-angle >4 °, >7 °, >10 °, even >15 °, the upper limit being defined by the need of not using more laser pulse energy than what is necessary for the scope, e.g. ⁇ 30 °or 25 °.
- the reason why a sufficiently large angle is necessary is because the "Bessel-like beam energy replacement length", i.e.
- pulse duration >0.5 ps, > 1 ps, > 5 ps, even >10 ps, the upper limit being below the range around lOOps (the person skilled in the art will be able to evaluate the optimum value depending, e.g., on the material, the laser-pulse wavelength, etc.), and thus reducing peak intensity, electron avalanche ionization, which is virtually not effective in the fs regime, may start to play a relevant role in boosting the plasma density up to the desired critical value, thus taking over the role of multi-photon ionization, which, in contrast, dominates the fs regime.
- an optimal condition for obtaining high- precision cutting of transparent material by means of single-pulse Bessel like beams relies upon the combined usage of both sufficiently large cone angles and sufficiently long pulse duration, e.g. in some embodiments: half width cone angle > 4 °, > 7 °, >10 °, even >15 °, the upper limit being defined by the need of not using more laser pulse energy than what is necessary for the scope, e.g. ⁇ 30 °, and a pulse duration > 0.5 ps, >1 ps, > 5ps, even >10 ps, the upper limit being, for example, around lOOps.
- cone angle and pulse duration depending, e.g., on the material, the laser-pulse wavelength, the available laser pulse energy, the desired length of the damage zone (i.e. the sample thickness and/or the number of scans at different depth which can be made), keeping in mind that, for the reasons provided above, for a given pulse energy and beam size, larger durations (within the specified range) allow slightly smaller cone angles, and thus slightly longer damage regions, than shorter ones.
- Some advantages of using Bessel-like beams over the filament regime for laser cutting of transparent materials may include:
- the total laser power necessary to cut the material is expected to be less than for the filament regime.

- the disclosure is based in part on the realization that interaction of laser light with a material may restructure the material along the laser propagation direction, and, for example, result in modified regions within the material, herein also referred to as elongate (internal) damage regions.
- elongate (internal) damage regions Providing those internal modified regions along a separation line over a specific range of the thickness of the material and/or at a specific position within the material and/or at a specific distance from each other and/or with a specific diameter allows influencing the cleaving behavior of the material across the separation line.
- providing those internal modified regions across an interface region between stress layers in tempered glass may even allow cleaving tempered glass, i.e. after the tempering process.
- providing those internal modified regions across a specific range of the thickness of a transparent material such as, for example, glass, sapphire, or tempered glass may allow cleaving parts from the material with a high quality cut face.
- the internal modified regions may essentially extend cylinder-like along the laser beam propagation. During the cleaving, internal modified regions induce a preferred separation plane within the material. When the separation takes place, along that plane the modified material may be associated with on of the cut faces such that one cut face includes the modified material while the other includes a counter-fitting structure. For example, one cut face may have sections with the shape of parallel tubular voids while the other shows parallel axial cylinder-sections, such as "the negative form” as well as "the positive form” of the modified regions.
- a region with a similar topology may be formed that includes surface structures of tubular voids and/or cylinder-sections with an aspect ratio equal to or larger than 10 or 100 such as in the range from 10 to 1000 or 20 to 500 or 50 to 100.
- both cut faces may show half-pipes if the cleaving plane extends across the ablated material area.
- various sections may include different types of such surface structures.
- the plane of the cleaving extends within a very low roughness (for example in the range below 30 ⁇ such as below 1 ⁇ - roughnesses of about 0.5 ⁇ were achieved) and, thus, a precision cut surfaces can be achieved, both for un-tempered as well as tempered transparent materials.
- the methods and systems disclosed herein are moreover directed to ensuring high speed, high precision, and high reproducibility and may in particular be directed to processing layered materials such as processing of tempered glass that has several stress layers.
- single pass cutting is disclosed using a laser beam having a Bessel-like beam configuration as Bessel-like beams show along a narrow core beam a high fluence region that is supplied with energy from radial outer sections of the beam.
- Bessel-like beams such as zero-order Bessel beams, for example, may feature an intense central spot which persists in propagation direction essentially without apparent diffraction - in contrast to the focusing of standard Gaussian beams which is usually strongly diverging after a tight focus. Accordingly, with single laser Bessel-like laser beam pulses, interaction zones over up to a millimeter and more may be achieved that result in a very narrow needle like laser damage regions.
- a single-shot Bessel-like beam induced damage of tempered glass may allow precision cutting of the material provided that the induced damage extends over an interface region and/or covers, for example, the combination of one compression stress layer and the entire tensile stress layer.
- Bessel-like beams are characterized by concentric fringes in the radial intensity profile.
- Bessel-like beams may have, for example, a transverse intensity profile of, for example, a zeroth order Bessel beam.
- (radially) truncated Bessel-like beams may be generated when passing through a diaphragma or any radially limiting optical element thereby creating, for example, so called apodized Bessel beams.
- Bessel-like beams may be generated from Gaussian beams and, therefore, be referred to as apodized Bessel-Gauss beams.
- Bessel-like beams of very long non- diffracting zone may be used.
- one may in principle achieve longer (extended) condensed-beam zone (i.e. longer "non-diffracting zone") by reducing the cone angle of the Bessel-like beam.
- Bessel-like beams are used with cone angles below said threshold, single shot laser pre-cutting may no longer be possible due to the reduced insufficient length of the laser modified regions such that multi-shot operation (for example, ten pulses for each position) may become necessary, for example, with Gaussian beams.
- the above mentioned limit in minimum cone angle i.e. the limit in the maximum length of the condensed-beam zone which defines the maximum thickness of a material that can be pre-cut
- the above mentioned limit in minimum cone angle may be overcome by increasing the duration of the laser pulses. It is assumed that during the longer interaction period of the laser pulse with the material, electrons generated by multi-photon ionization are multiplied in number by electron avalanche ionization.
- the dependence of (i) the minimum cone angle of the Bessel-like beams allowing producing the required elongate damage region on (ii) laser pulse duration was discovered. Specifically, the minimum required cone angle decreases when increasing the pulse duration.
- selecting a regime for optical beam path parameters and laser characteristic parameters of the laser beam may allow pre-cutting tempered glass of a thickness of, for example, 0.75 mm, which is a thickness typical for mobile phone window screens.
- the pre-cutting may be precisely preformed in a single-shot, single-pass regime using low-cost, commercial, high repetition rate short pulse lasers such as picosecond or femtosecond lasers.
- short pulse lasers such as picosecond or femtosecond lasers.
- picosecond-pulse Bessel-like beams may need to be used instead of femtosecond-pulse durations.

- Fig. 16 to Fig. 18, Fig. 22, and Fig. 23 aspects of resulting cleaving faces of a material being pre- cut as proposed herein are disclosed.

- Lenses L2 and L3 form a telescopic beam imaging system used to de-magnify the Bessel- like beam generated after the axicon lens 15.

- lens L2 and lens L3 may be plano-convex lenses of focal length f2 and f3, respectively, which are kept fixed at, for example, 300 mm.
- Lens L4 is a microscope objective lens of magnification 20x and numerical aperture of 0.4.
- Translation mechanism 9 may be configured for positioning sample 3 with respect to the Bessel-like laser beam along laser propagation axis Z as well as in directions X and Y being, for example, orthogonal with respect to laser propagation axis Z. While in Fig. 1, translation mechanism 9 is configured to support sample 3, alternatively or additionally, a translation mechanism may be provided for moving laser system 3 and/or optical system 7 with respect to sample 3. [66] Referring to Fig. 3, an exemplary longitudinal fluence profile 17 of the peak fluence measured along propagation axis Z is shown. Specifically, a normalized beam fluence F at the central beam peak (normalized peak fluence) is indicated in dependence of the position in Z-direction. Thereby, fluence is defined as the energy density in J/cm2.
- the full width at half-maximum (F WHM) value of longitudinal fluence profile 17 along the beam-propagation direction is measured to be 540 ⁇ .
- the FWHM within an optical material will in general be longer for materials having an index of refraction larger 1, such as an index of refraction of about 1.5 will result in a FWHM value of about 800 ⁇ .
- Fig. 4 shows an exemplary transverse fluence profile 19 illustrating a normalized peak fluence in dependence of a position in X direction, i.e. orthogonal to Z direction.
- Transverse fluence profile 19 shows several characteristic concentric fringes across the beam diameter that are set by the respective beam apodisation function of the Bessel-like beam.
- the beam apodization function may be set via the real apodization
- Fig. 5 is a top view of a front face 23 of sample 3 being machined by irradiating laser pulses of a Bessel-like laser beam onto that front face.
- Sample 3 is scanned along a predetermined pre-cutting path 25 that extends, for example, along the X-direction.
- the laser scanning is performed such that consecutive laser pulses irradiate different areas of front face 23 along pre-cutting path 25.
- circles 27 schematically represent the areas where sample 3 is irradiated by the core of the Bessel- like laser beam. Circles 27 have centers XN-I , XN, XN+I,. ⁇ ⁇ that are separated by a distance dx and correspond to pre-cut positions.
- a damage region extends and along the propagation axis Z and around the respective center of centers XN-I, XN, XN+I.
- Exemplary spacing conditions may use a distance dx of at least 1 ⁇ , at least 2 ⁇ , or at least 4 ⁇ , for example 2 ⁇ , or a distance dx of at least 80 % or at least 100 % of a core beam waist at full width half maximum of a pulsed Bessel-like laser beam such that they are not too close to the previous laser damage zone as that may affect the present beam propagation and thus the quality of that laser damage region.
- a distance dx of 4 ⁇ may allow for large speed and good quality of pre-cutting.
- the scanning is performed in a single pass scan.
- Single pass relates to the fact that each section along the cutting path is only visited (passed) once by the laser beam. Accordingly, a single laser pulse damage region (around center XN) originating from a selected laser pulse has only a single directly neighboring single laser pulse damage region (around center XN-I) that originates from a single laser pulses irradiated in time immediately before the selected laser pulse and one directly neighboring single laser pulse damage region (around center XN+I) that originates from a single laser pulses irradiated in time immediately after the selected laser pulse.
- the scanning is performed such that, during the single pass scanning, the pulsed Bessel-like laser beam does not return to an earlier irradiated position such that a single laser pulse damage region (around center XN) originating from a selected laser pulse has only a single directly neighboring single laser pulse damage region (around center XN-I) that originates from a single laser pulses irradiated in time
- the first step of the material processing as disclosed in connection with Fig. 1 to Fig. 5 is referred to herein also as pre-cutting because - due to the limited extension of the damage regions after the pre-cutting along cutting path 25 - there generally remains a structural connection between the sections of the material on the sides of cutting path 25. Remaining structural connections may generally also be present in the case that the damage regions extend from the front face (through which the laser beam enters the material) to the back face (through which the laser beam exits the material).
- An example of a layered material comprises at least one tensile stress layer, at least one compression stress layer, and at least one interface region between the at least one tensile stress layer and the at least one compression stress layer.
- Tempered glass 31 contains two compression stress layers, a front compression stress layer CSL1 at a front face 33 and a back compression stress layer CSL2 at a back face 35, as well as one tensile stress layer TSL there between. Accordingly, tempered glass 31 comprises two interface regions, an interface region IR1 between front compression stress layer CSL1 and tensile stress layer TSL and an interface region IR2 between tensile stress layer TSL and back compression stress layer CSL2.
- Tempered glass is used as a substrate for display panel, safety window etc. because of its higher strength of, for example, the front surface as compared to non- tempered glass.
- glass materials are tempered using chemically or thermally strengthening treatment causing the formation of a compression stress layer at the sample surfaces.
- the thickness if the compression stress layer may be in the range of, for example, 50 ⁇ to 70 ⁇ .
- the tensile stress layer may extend thus inside the material. Due to those stress layers, conventional cutting of tempered glass may easily results in irregular pieces. There herein disclosed methods, however, may allow cutting of tempered glass with a high quality cat-surface.
- Examples illustrating the extension of the fluence above a threshold fluence for single laser pulse damging are disclosed in the following in connection with Fig. 7 to Fig. 13.
- a fluence F of, for example, the core of the Bessel-like beam along propagation direction Z is schematically illustrated by a fluence graph 41.
- a maximum damage length DLmax in propagation direction Z is indicated in which peak fluence F is above a threshold value Fth for optical damaging, essentially it is assumed that this threshold value corresponds to the threshold of optical break down.
- a fluence above threshold value Fth may cause optical break down and thereby modify the internal structure of the material, e.g. form a damage region or even ablation in which material is destroyed.
- ablation is one type of laser induced damage
- changes of the density or even hardness exist and may have the same effect to induce a symmetry for a cleaving process such that high quality cut faces originate that, for example, primarily extend within one plane, e.g. the or next to the plane of the laser induced damage regions.
- a laser induced damage zone may be identified as the zone of the sample over which structures as a result of the laser interaction are observed after cleaving.
- Different types of structures may be present in different sections of the cut face as disclosed in connection with the SEM images shown in Fig. 22 and Fig. 23.
- laser induced damage zones may be seen, for example, in an optical microscopic image of a cut face as discussed below in connection with Fig. 16 to Fig. 18.
- the length of the laser induced damage zone may be defined as the length of the sample section that shows damage in one plane (if the sample is scanned along X-direction, then in the XZ plane) and does not include any cracked section of the sample which is often related to the portion that is not pre-cut with the laser beam.
- the laser induced damage region is herein considered as the region of the un-cleaved material in which some material modifications where caused by the interaction with the high fluence of the irradiated laser beam.
- the extension (length) of the laser induced damage region and laser induced damage zones correspond to each other and is herein referred to as laser induced damage length DL such as the maximum laser induced damage length DLmax indicated in Fig. 7.
- laser induced damage length DL such as the maximum laser induced damage length DLmax indicated in Fig. 7.
- single laser pulse damage regions of successive laser pulses are parallel with respect to each other and extend - for a pure lateral translation movement - essentially over the same laser induced damage length.
- Bessel-like beam with a material being essentially transparent with respect to single photon absorption of the laser beam when propagating through the material may be based on multi-photon ionization.
- Multi-photon ionization may be accompanied by electron avalanche photoionization and result in a single laser pulse damage region.
- the length of the single laser pulse damage region may be within a range of several 100 ⁇ up to 1 mm and more in direction of the laser beam propagation and the width may be within a range below about 2 ⁇ in radial direction.
- the extension of the single laser pulse damage region depends on the field strength within the focus of, for example, the core beam and, thus, depends on the optical beam path within optical system 7 and the laser characteristic of the pulsed Bessel-like laser beam such as the laser pulse energy and the laser pulse duration provided by laser system 5.
- ablation of material may dominate.
- a modification of the material itself may occur, e.g. a modification of the hardness or the index of refraction due to changes on the atomic structure.
- Transparency with respect to single photon absorption corresponds to the fact that single photon absorption is not the underlying ionization process as, for example, the band gap is larger than the photon energy.
- Ionization based on multi-photon ionization is generally characterized by an ionization threshold such that also the formation of a damage region is well defined in space.
- the material may be transparent in the near infrared and/or visible spectral range [84]
- the position of the sample with respect to the laser beam may be maintained in such a way that the condensed beam zone (the volume in the space where the fluence (J/cm2) of the laser beam is above 1 ⁇ 2 of the maximum fluence) is positioned either across one of the sample face. Then, the fluence will be the highest, for example, at the sample's front face or the sample's back face.
- the condensed beam zone may be positioned completely within the sample such that the fluence is below the threshold fluence or even zero at the sample faces.
- the laser induced damage is connected both to a front face 43 and a back face 45 of the sample.
- Fig. 9 illustrates a focusing position for the material of thickness DSl, whereby only front face 43 is subject to an above threshold fluence.
- a zone of laser induced damage of a length DL2 is formed inside the material, which has a length that is smaller than the thickness DSl.
- the zone of laser induced damage is connected only to front face 43 but not to back face 45.
- Fig. 9 For a layered (for example, tempered) glass as shown in Fig. 6, the focusing position of Fig. 9 provides only that front compression stress layer CSLl and only a part of tensile stress layer TSL including interface region IRl are pre-cut if the difference between thickness DS 1 and length DL2 is larger than the thickness of the back
- Fig. 10 illustrates a focusing position for the material of thickness DSl, whereby only back face 45 is subject to an above threshold fluence, i.e. in contrast to the focusing geometries shown in Fig. 8 and Fig. 9.
- the focusing position of Fig. 10 provides that only a part of tensile stress layer TSL and (the complete) back compression stress layer CSL2 including interface region IR2 are pre-cut - in particular, if the difference between thickness DS1 and length DL3 is larger than the thickness of the compression stress layer CSL1.
- pre-cutting of a stuck of two plate-like samples 47 and 49 is illustrated as an example of simultaneous multi-material processing.
- the samples of, for example, tempered glass have thicknesses DS2 and DS3 and the maximum length of the laser induced damage DLmax is greater than the total thickness of the two samples, DLmax > DS2 + DS3.
- the embodiment of Fig. 11 illustrates that for a sufficient long induced damage length DLmax it may be possible to pre-cut multiple material plates at the same time.
- Fig. 12 and Fig. 13 further illustrate the focusing position of Fig. 8.
- Fig. 12 shows a side-view optical micrograph of a pre-cut tempered glass having a thickness of 700 ⁇ .
- the laser pre-cutting was performed with a Bessel-like beam of a conical half-angle of 9 °, a laser energy per pulse of 72 ⁇ 3, and a laser pulse duration of 11 ps.
- the distance dx between consecutive interacting laser pulses was 4.5 ⁇ .
- the tempered glass is not yet separated such that the single laser pulse damage regions are maintained in tact and can be seen from the side.
- the laser induced damage regions extend throughout the tempered glass.
- the optical micrograph shows a front face 53 and a back face 55 each showing darkened spots where the laser beam entered and exited the tempered glass.
- the top view of Fig. 13(a) of front face 53 and the top view of Fig. 13(b) of back face 55 clearly indicate the single pulse interaction areas (damage areas 54 in front face 53 and damage areas 56 in back face 55) along the cutting path.
- the side view shoes linearly extending darker lines one of them being enhanced for illustration purposes that extend from front face 53 to back face 55 across the tempered glass and clearly illustrate the long ranging of laser induced damage regions 57 within the tempered glass.
- the second (separation) step of the material processing is disclosed in connection with Fig. 14 and Fig. 15. Mechanical separation of parts of the material by, for example, applying pressure using a custom-designed apparatus is achieved. It is noted that, in some embodiments, internal stress within the material may, however, initiate a spontaneous separation of the material in separate parts.
- the material may be separated by
- Fig. 14 and Fig. 15 illustrate in a simple way an exemplary separation step based on a mechanical arrangement.
- the front face and the back face of the pre-cut sample are covered with pairs of cover plates 61 and 63, respectively.
- the pairs of cover plates 61 and 63 are configured such that the cutting path is the preferred line of breaking.
- cover plates 61, 63 are weakened along the cutting path position as shown in Fig. 14 by featuring a low-angle of, for example, 15 ° cone-shaped tips.
- Cover plates 61, 63 may be made of a hard material such as aluminum.
- An exemplary placement of all four cone-shaped tips is shown Fig. 14.
- a dashed-dotted line 65 shows the normal to the cutting path, corresponding to the propagation direction of the laser beam.
- a soft, sponge-like material may be placed as shock absorbers between sample 3 and cover plates 61 and 63.
- the separation may be performed by holding one of the sandwiched sides of sample 3 (e.g. the side on the left of Fig. 14) and applying a force 66 in direction of the arrow, for example, in parallel to dashed-dotted line 65 at the center of the other side of the sample.
- Fig. 15 illustrates the breaking movement where sample 3 is broken into parts 67 and 69.
- the direction of breaking may be chosen such that the surface to which the laser induced damage region connect would open first. In embodiments in which the laser induced damage regions cover both surfaces of the sample, the direction of breaking may be not important and the pressure may be applied to either side.
- a laser induced damage zone may be visualized by optical
- Fig. 16 to Fig. 18 show side view optical micrographs for different extension and positioning of the laser induced damage zone.
- the quality of the cut for experimental tests on a tempered glass of thickness 700 ⁇ is illustrated.
- the cut quality is inter alia defined by the crack depth next to the front face/back face and depends on the length of laser-induced damage region and the focusing geometries illustrated in connection with Fig. 8 to Fig. 10.
- the pre-cutting was performed with Bessel-like beams of conical half-angle 9 °, pulse duration of 11 ps and an inter-pulse spacing of 2 ⁇ .
- Fig. 16 shows a cross-sectional optical micrograph
- the focusing geometry in this case is similar to that shown in Fig. 8 such that laser induced damage zone (length DL1 of 700 ⁇ ) extends across the complete thickness of the tempered glass, i.e. from front face 73 to back face 75.
- Fig. 17 the pre-cutting corresponds to a focusing geometry similar to that shown in Fig. 10 but still in an operating regime classified as region II in Fig. 21 (discussed below) as the condition DL > CSL+TSL is satisfied. No cracks are present within the compressed stress layers. It is noted that, when the laser induced damage zone covers nearly 70 % of the sample from the back face, one also may observe
- Fig. 18 a cross-sectional optical micrograph of tempered glass processed by pre-cutting and cleaving is shown where the Bessel-like beam position with respect to the sample's front face 73 is set similar to the position illustrated in Fig. 10. However, the laser induced damage zone was set to be only 370 ⁇ and thus slightly larger than 50 % of the thickness of the tempered glass.
- a cracked region 71 having a thickness of about 100 ⁇ can be seen adjacent to front face 73.
- a region 77 that looks like polished and has a pattern that represents the high quality cut due to the laser pre-cutting.
- region 79 having a pattern created by the cleaving process still within the plane of region 77, thus being of high quality.
- length DL3 of about 370 ⁇ corresponds to regions 77 and 79 and is less then the sum of the thicknesses of
- region 81 Between region 79 and crack region 71, there is another region 81 with a unique pattern which may be attributed to uncontrolled cleaving being not affected by the pre-cutting and being not in the plane of the pre-cutting such that region 81 corresponds to lower quality cutting.
- the roughness in crack region 71 and region 81 may be significantly larger than the surface roughness of the pre-cutting affected regions 77 and 79, which may be in the range of only a few microns or even in the submicron range.
- the differing regions of Fig. 18 may be due to the fact that length DL3 of the laser induced damage zone is not long enough to provide a symmetry for the cleaving process over the complete thickness.
- Fig. 18 still may allow a sufficient cleaving of pre-cut tempered glass as the interface region between compression layer CSL2 and tensile layer TSL is subject to the laser damage region.
- the laser induced damage zone was defined as the zone of the sample over which regular damage patterns are observed as evident from the optical microscopic image. Note here that one may define the length of the laser induced damage zone as the whole length of the sample that contains damage in one plane (if sample is scanned along X-direction, then in the XZ plane) and, thus, does not include the cracked portion(s) of the sample and the portion that is not machined using laser.
- Fig. 19 to Fig. 21 illustrate various experimental data. Referring to
- Fig. 19 for the focusing geometry of Fig. 10, the dependence of the minimum conical half- angle ⁇ of a Bessel-like beam that can induce damage in tempered glass from the laser pulse duration ⁇ is shown.
- the distance dx between adjacent damage zones was about 2 ⁇ . For smaller conical half-angles, longer pulses are required.
- the threshold laser energy was determined by pre-cutting tempered glass of 700 ⁇ thickness with laser pulses of 11 ps pulse duration. The distance dx between adjacent damage zones was about 2 ⁇ . The threshold energy was defined as the minimum energy (for a particular conical half-angle) which causes the laser induced damage zone to be sufficiently long enough for pre-cutting of the tempered glass.
- a tempered glass of thickness 700 ⁇ , a laser pulse duration of 1 1 ps, and a Bessel beam of conical half-angle of 9 ° the dependence of a crack depth Dcrack from the front face from the length DL of the laser-induced damage zone is shown.
- the distance dx between adjacent damage zones was about 2 ⁇ .
- a region I has been indicated in which cracks appear on the compression stress layer CSL1 at the front face of the tempered glass.
- Region I essentially corresponds to the focusing geometry in which the laser induced damage length DL is smaller than the combined thicknesses of one compression stress layer and one tensile stress layer.
- a region II corresponds to the focusing geometry in which the laser induced damage length DL is larger than the combined thicknesses of one compression stress layer and one tensile stress layer. In region II, no cracks appear; even if the laser induced damage length DL is smaller than the combined thicknesses of two compression stress layers and one tensile stress layer, i.e. even if the sample is thicker than the laser- induced damage zone.
- the (minimum) needed energy per pulse depends mainly on the sample thickness and may be in the range of, for example, 1 ⁇ to 40 ⁇ per 100 ⁇ thickness, for example 2 ⁇ 3 to 20 ⁇ /per 100 ⁇ thickness (such as 5 ⁇ , ⁇ per 100 ⁇ thickness) depending inter alia on the material and laser spectrum but weakly depending on the chosen cone angle or the set pulse duration.
- This can be seen with coarse approximation from the combination of Fig. 19, which teaches that for longer samples, i.e. smaller angles, longer pulses are needed, and Fig. 20, which states that pulse energy increases with increasing the pulse duration.
- the minimum cone angle that is necessary for single-shot cut decreases. This allows, for a fixed sample length, smaller beams and smaller optics and, thereby a cheaper and more easily to handle set up. Surprisingly, going for longer pulses does not demand for larger laser pulse energy (or average powers). Indeed, if one looks carefully at the data, the minimum energy may even slightly decrease. Therefore, for example a ps pulse duration (for example in the range from 5 ps to 15 ps such as lOps) is proposed for "cheap" but high quality single-shot pre-cutting.
- FIG. 22 and Fig. 23 SEM images of a pre-cut and cleaved part of a tempered glass with a thickness of 540 ⁇ are reproduced.
- a corner of the pre-cut and cleaved part shows regular surface structure at the cut face. Specifically, a series of parallel half-pipes are formed and extend from the front face on along the cut face.
- a middle portion of the pre-cut and cleaved part is shown.
- the surface structure relates to a different section of the cut face with different types of structures. Specifically, the surface structure remains to extend in parallel.
- half-pipe structures also half-cylinder-like protruding shapes can be identified.
- the parameters for pre-cutting are set in order to reduce the time necessary for the laser pre-cut as described above, and thus to improve cutting speed.
- the distance between neighboring elongated damage regions may be increased.
- the pre-cutting may be performed for neighboring elongate damage regions such that the neighboring elongate damage regions are displaced with respect to each other by a distance of at least 1 or at least 2 ⁇ or at least 3 ⁇ or at least 4 ⁇ .
- the parameters for pre-cutting may be set in order to minimize the effort necessary for separating the cut parts of the material after the pre-cut is completed. As previously pointed out, this may even initiate spontaneous separation, i.e. where no external (mechanical) force is necessary at all. Depending on, for example, the density and extension of the damage regions as well as the material properties, spontaneous separation of the cut parts may take place. Preferably it takes place after the pre-cutting process is completed for that section that should spontaneously separate, e.g. 10 s or 5 s after, or even 1 s after completion or less.
- smaller distance between neighboring elongated damage regions may be selected, for example a distance smaller than 10 ⁇ or 5 ⁇ or 2 ⁇ or 1.5 ⁇ , or even smaller than 1 ⁇ in combination with a respective extension of the laser damage region in laser propagation direction such as 50 % or more up to even extending completely through the material.
- crossover distance for which neighboring damage regions are not independent anymore. For example, if the distance between neighboring elongated damage regions is taken smaller than the crossover distance dcross, then the two damage regions are not independent anymore in the sense that the shape of the volume of the second damage region depends on the presence of the first.
- each beam typically forms - in the absence of any neighboring beam - a radially symmetric damage zone.
- the second beam may cause the second beam to perform a damage which is elongated not only along the Z direction, as for the independent damage regions, but also relative to the neighboring damage region.
- a deformation may occur along the direction which connects the two damage regions (exemplarily referred to as X direction in Fig. 5).
- the shape of the volume of the second pulse damage region is not cylindrically but is that of a 3D ellipsoid with the shorter axis along a Y direction, being the direction perpendicular to X and the laser propagation direction Z.
- the damage elongation of the damage zone in the X direction may not be simply due to an artefact caused be the fact that two portion of two neighboring damaged zone are overlapping.
- the damage elongation along the X direction relative to the neighboring damage region protrudes not only in the direction toward the first neighboring damage region but also in the direction away from the neighboring damage region.
- the observed phenomenon may be interpreted as a consequence of the fact that the second pulse induces a stress in a material which is already stressed by the effect of the first pulse.
- the superposition of the two laser-induced mechanical stress produces inside the material a pressure whose larger value is naturally oriented along the direction at which both the pulses contribute, e.g. along the Y direction.
- the material damage zone e.g. the volume region inside the material where, e.g., the refractive index is changed, or micro cracks are formed, etc.
- the material damage zone may feature the largest extension in the plane orthogonal to that force, here in the XZ plane.
- This circumstance is particularly relevant because it may allow, when a sequence of many pulse along a cut line is considered, to form not a series of independent damage cylindrical volumes but, moreover, the formation of a quasi-continuous or virtually continuous damage surface, which widely extends in the XZ plane (being planar or bent depending on the line of pre- cutting, i.e. depending on the positioning of the series of damage regions).
- Fig. 24 illustrate the above effect of deformation of the elongate
- Fig. 24 shows a series of locations XN-1, XN, XN+1.
- the series is positioned on a bent shape on the surface of a material plate such as a glass plate, exemplarily a section of a circle shown as a dashed separation line 700.
- Separation line 700 separates, for example, a cell phone screen 710 in the region of a corner from an outer section 720.
- cell phone screen 710 does not have any elongate damage regions in its inner region.
- outer section 720 of the material does not have any damage regions such that a separation will take place only along separation line 700 (usually with a variation of the surface in the range of the damage zone extension in lateral direction at least for those regions were elongate damage regions were provided; according to the embodiment of Fig. 24 continuously along the line and, for bent boarders, usually across essentially the complete material thickness).
- Fig. 24 illustrates for each location XN-1, XN, XN+1 a circle 27 in analogy of Fig. 5 and an elliptical shape in grey scale.
- two elliptical shapes 730 are indicated with a surrounding dashed line.
- the deformation is in the direction of the neighboring, already existing elongate damage region.
- the size and shape are only schematically indicated to illustrate the deformation in the XY plane, e.g. in the surface plane of the sample.
- the elongate damage regions extend about 1.5 times more in the direction of the scan, i.e. the separation line 700, than in lateral direction thereto.
- the symmetry break may influence the breaking separation process in particular in the case of a bent separation line by guiding the separation process (crack formation is "bent" around the corner).
- elongate damage region may be affected such that a widening of the same in direction of the scan may occur (not shown in Fig. 24).
- the laser processing to generate a self-separating damage surface is herein not considered to be a cut because the two portions of the material are not separated at once, as for the case of an ablation line in which the material connecting said two portions is removed.
- the herein disclosed separation of the parts may occur on itself only after the laser processing is completed, for example, after a complete separation line is processed by the laser pulses.
- Exemplary completed cutting lines may feature both of the start point and the end points on the material perimeter and/or may feature structures having overlapping start and end points and/or may feature sections of material that are removed.
- the separation process (and thus the completion of the cutting in the sense of the above discussion) may be performed afterwards, e.g. by cleaving, such as by applying an external force.
- This separation process may be applied, for example, in cases in which neighboring damage regions are well separated.
- the separation may also occur spontaneously after the pre-cut is completed, if the damage surface in the XZ plane is large enough, and/or if the accumulated internal stress due to the pre-cutting action is large enough.
- the occurrence of such spontaneous separation may be understood as a consequence of a large amount of stress produced inside the material by the laser interaction and by the fact that said stress may be released when the two parts of the material eventually separate.
- the parameters are set such that spontaneous separation is not initiated before the pre-cut is completed. If spontaneous separation may start before the separation line is completed, random breaking may occur in particular in those regions in which the pre-cutting has not been performed.
- the distance between neighboring damage regions is selected to be sufficiently small to ensure that the shape of the damaged volume relative to any pulse is that of a 3D ellipsoid having the shorter axis orthogonal to the separation line, e.g. in the Y direction in Fig. 5.
- the extension of the damage region in the X axis is for example 1.2 times, preferentially 1.5 times or more, such as 2 times larger than the extension in the Y axis. For the foregoing consideration, it is referred to the smallest ellipsoid circumscribing the damaged region.
- laser parameters may be tuned so that, if the laser pre-cut is interrupted at any point after the first and before reaching the sample perimeter or the starting position, then the shape of the damaged region relative to the neighboring pulse extends along scanning direction, e.g. along the X direction in Fig. 5, away from the damage of the neighboring pulse more than along the direction orthogonal to the separation plane (e.g. the Y direction being orthogonal to the XZ plan in Fig. 5), e.g. 1.2 times more or 1.5 times more or 2 times more.
- the separation of the pre-cut portions of the material may be initiated by creating a thermal stress by means of a temperature gradient induced between the top and bottom material surfaces. For example, one may induce a gradient of 1 ° or more, such as 3° or more, for example 10° across the material in thickness direction.
- the temperature gradient may be produced by blowing warm or cold air onto one side of the material, or by causing evaporation of humidity from one of the material's surface side.
- a temperature gradient might be induced
- the separation of the pre-cut portions of the material may be initiated by acoustic waves such as using ultrasonic waves (e.g. at a frequency in the range above 17 KHz, preferably above 19 KH, more preferably above 20 KHz, and power in the range for 10 W to 1000W, preferably from 50 W to 500 W, more preferably from 100 W to 300 W.
- acoustic waves such as using ultrasonic waves (e.g. at a frequency in the range above 17 KHz, preferably above 19 KH, more preferably above 20 KHz, and power in the range for 10 W to 1000W, preferably from 50 W to 500 W, more preferably from 100 W to 300 W.
- Bessel- like beam cutting technology may be configured as a single step tempered glass cutting technology, without the need of mechanical cleaving. Only a single processing step, e.g. pre-cutting to provide self-breaking conditions - sometimes with a plus simple second tension increasing step (heating, blowing, condensation cooling etc.) may be achieved. Tension
- tempered glass may be cut without the mechanical cleaving step if the material between tempered layers, including the tempered layers, is damaged by laser interaction in such a manner that the stress occurring due to the tempered layers is large enough to break the material apart along the separation line formed by the pre-cutting process.
- break initiation may be applied by laser or by a temperature difference between the material surfaces.
- the second step performing the mechanical cleaving may not be necessary.
- the laser pulses are delivered closer to each other along the separation line and damage is provided to an extend that, for example, a temperature differences induced between top and bottom of the sample is sufficient or that the separation is even self-starting.
- the timing may even be set to a specific time difference to allow the material to be transported out of the pre-cutting system.
- this may result in cleaving appearing spontaneously after one or two minutes, or in a few seconds after blowing air on the sample. Cleaving might also be initiated by applying a slight initial separating force between the two parts to be cleaved.
- the self-separation approach may be used for tempered glass but also for un-tempered glass such as sapphire. Although, for a material with high tempering the configuration for self-separation may be easier to be set.
