    摘要: Durable calibration standards are described herein for inspection systems for manufactured vials, such as glass pharmaceutical vials, and methods of using the same. A grayscale calibration standard is provided for calibration of camera settings of imaging components in an inspection system. The grayscale calibration standard comprises a vial having a laser etched gradient image on a portion of the vial. A region of interest (ROI) calibration standard is provided for calibration of spatial difference of imaging components and to align imaging components in an inspection system to capture desired regions of interest. The ROI calibration standard comprises a vial comprising laser etchings on one or more portions of the vial, wherein the laser etchings comprise laser markings formed in a geometric pattern. By providing laser-marked calibration standards, the calibration standards may be used in many different modes of metrology.

    摘要: A method of forming a glass article includes steps of: providing a glass substrate sheet, forming a first array of first damage regions, forming a second array of second damage regions which define a plurality of portions, wherein the second array of second damage regions define one or more interrupted zones. The interrupted zones may have a largest dimension of about 10 microns or greater. The method further includes steps of etching the glass substrate and singulating the plurality of portions from the glass substrate sheet.

    摘要: A method for laser processing a substrate stack includes forming a defect in a transparent workpiece of the substrate stack having a black matrix layer. Forming the defect includes directing a portion of a pulsed laser beam into the transparent workpiece. The pulsed laser beam includes a wavelength λ, a spot size wo, and a Rayleigh range ZR that is greater than F D  π   w 0 , 2 λ , where FD is a dimensionless divergence factor comprising a value of 10 or greater. The pulsed laser beam directed into the transparent workpiece of the substrate stack forms a pulsed laser beam focal line disposed within the transparent workpiece, where a center of the pulsed laser beam focal line is offset from an edge of the black matrix layer by a distance that is about 20% or less of a total thickness of the substrate stack and generates an induced absorption within the transparent workpiece.

    摘要: Systems and methods for laser-cutting thermally tempered substrates are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of separating a thermally tempered substrate includes directing a laser beam focal line such that at least a portion of the laser beam focal line is within a bulk of the thermally tempered substrate. The focused pulsed laser beam is pulsed to form a sequence of pulse bursts comprising one or more sub-pulses. The laser beam focal line produces a damage track within the bulk of the tempered substrate along the laser beam focal line. Relative motion is provided between the focused pulsed laser beam and the tempered substrate such that the pulsed laser beam forms a sequence of damage tracks within the tempered substrate. Individual damage tracks of the sequence of damage tracks are separated by a lateral spacing, and one or more microcracks connect adjacent damage tracks of the sequence of damage tracks.

    摘要: Methods for forming holes in a substrate by reducing back reflections of a quasi-non-diffracting beam into the substrate are described herein. In some embodiments, a method of processing a substrate having a first surface and a second surface includes applying an exit material to the second surface of the substrate, wherein a difference between a refractive index of the exit material and a refractive index of the substrate is 0.4 or less, and focusing a pulsed laser beam into a quasi-non-diffracting beam directed into the substrate such that the quasi-non-diffracting beam enters the substrate through the first surface. The substrate is transparent to at least one wavelength of the pulsed laser beam. The quasi-non-diffracting beam generates an induced absorption within the substrate that produces a damage track within the substrate.

    摘要: Systems and processes of cutting and drilling in a target substrate uses a laser (e.g., a pulsed laser) and an optical system to generate a line focus of the laser beam within the target substrate, such as a glass substrate sheet, are provided. The laser cutting and drilling system and process creates holes or defects that, in certain embodiments, extend the full depth of the glass sheet with each individual laser pulse, and allows the laser system to cut and separate the target substrate into any desired contour by creating a series of perforations that form a contour or desired part shape. Since a glass substrate sheet is brittle, cracking will then follow the perforated contour, allowing the glass substrate sheet to separate into any required shape defined by the perforations.
