  • the relative moving speed of the laser light irradiation area with respect to the glass substrate is not sufficient, and the cooling speed of the peripheral area of the laser light irradiation area after laser light irradiation becomes slow, and the peripheral area is deposited. It is assumed that the cut surface did not become uniform because it was not excluded as a product. Or, when the temperature of the peripheral part of the laser light irradiation area after laser light irradiation is cooled by transporting the glass substrate, it is not the desired cooling rate, so that the cut surface and its periphery have cracked It is inferred.
  • the energy density of the laser light can be appropriately selected for the A-evaluated glass substrate in accordance with the relative movement speed (glass substrate transport speed) of the laser light irradiation region with respect to the glass substrate. For this reason, it is considered that the laser beam irradiation region is heated from one surface of the glass substrate to the other surface at a temperature higher than the temperature at which the glass is vaporized. Furthermore, since the conveyance speed of the glass substrate is appropriate, the peripheral portion of the laser light irradiation region after laser light irradiation is cooled at an appropriate cooling rate, and the peripheral portion of the laser light irradiation region after laser light irradiation is a precipitate. It is considered that a uniform cut surface was obtained.
  • Example 2 In this experimental example, the energy density of the laser beam and the relative movement speed of the irradiation region of the laser beam with respect to the glass substrate are changed in the same manner as in Experimental Example 1 except that the thickness of the glass substrate to be cut is 0.2 mm. Then, the glass substrate was cut, and the cut surface of the glass substrate after cutting was evaluated.
  • Results are shown in Table 2 and FIG. FIG. 11 is a graph of the results in Table 2.
  • the straight line Y indicates the minimum value of the relative movement speed (here, the conveyance speed of the glass substrate) of the irradiation region of the laser beam, in which the precipitate is generated in the cooling process, and in this case, 144 (m / hour) )Met.
  • FIG. 3 In this experimental example, the energy density of the laser beam and the relative movement speed of the irradiation region of the laser beam with respect to the glass substrate are changed in the same manner as in Experimental Example 1 except that the thickness of the glass substrate to be cut is 0.3 mm. Then, the glass substrate was cut, and the cut surface of the glass substrate after cutting was evaluated.
  • FIG. 12 is a graph of the results in Table 3.
  • the straight line Y indicates the minimum value of the relative movement speed (here, the conveyance speed of the glass substrate) of the irradiation region of the laser beam, in which the precipitate is generated in the cooling process, and in this case, 144 (m / hour) )Met.
  • the glass substrate is cut by changing the energy density of the laser beam to be irradiated without changing the conveyance speed of the glass substrate.
  • the energy density of the laser beam is increased to be higher than the straight line X
  • the glass is vaporized in the laser beam irradiation region from one surface of the glass substrate to the other surface in the laser beam irradiation region. It was possible to heat to a temperature higher than the temperature to be evaluated, and it was confirmed that A was evaluated.
  • Example 4 In this experimental example, the energy density of the laser beam and the relative movement speed of the irradiation region of the laser beam with respect to the glass substrate are changed in the same manner as in Experimental Example 1 except that the thickness of the glass substrate to be cut is 0.6 mm. Then, the glass substrate was cut, and the cut surface of the glass substrate after cutting was evaluated.
  • FIG. 13 is a graph of the results in Table 4.
  • the straight line Y indicates the minimum value of the relative movement speed (here, the conveyance speed of the glass substrate) of the irradiation region of the laser beam, in which the precipitate is generated in the cooling process, and in this case, 144 (m / hour) )Met.
  • the energy density of the laser beam irradiated was lower than that of the straight line X. For this reason, sufficient energy of the laser beam cannot be imparted with respect to the relative movement speed of the laser beam irradiation region with respect to the glass substrate (the conveyance speed of the glass substrate), and the other surface of the glass substrate with respect to the laser beam irradiation portion It is considered that the glass substrate could not be heated to a temperature higher than the temperature at which it vaporizes. Therefore, it was considered that C evaluation was made because the glass substrate could not be cut.
