    摘要: A method for the production of glass or glass ceramic elements from flat glass or glass ceramic parts is provided where the edges of the glass or glass ceramic elements are treated by a combination of two processes. The flat glass or glass ceramic element with an edge surface connecting the two side surfaces is produced. The edge surface has at least one first elongated, strip-shaped edge region and at least one second elongated strip-shaped edge region, which are formed by a ground edge. The edge regions extend in the longitudinal direction along the edge surface and along the side surfaces. The first edge region has elongated parallel filamentary damages that are parallel and adjacent to one another and, in particular, spaced apart equidistantly, in the longitudinal direction thereof extending transversely to the side surfaces and along the surface of the first edge region.

    摘要: The present disclosure provides a device and a method for laser-based separation of a transparent, brittle workpiece, comprising a laser that emits a laser beam having an intensity (IL) along an optical axis (P), and an optical device. The optical device has at least one one-piece double axicon. The double axicon has an entrance surface and the optical device has an exit surface. The entrance surface is such that in the double axicon, a ring beam is formed. The intensity (IL) in the double axicon is lower than the threshold intensity (IS) of the material of the double axicon. The exit surface is such that a line focus having a maximum intensity (Imax) and a length (LT) is generated in the direction of the laser beam behind the exit.

    摘要: A method for preparing a workpiece for separation is provided that includes providing a workpiece that is transparent for light of a pulsed laser beam, splitting the laser beam into two partial beams using an optical system, directing both partial beams onto the workpiece, and moving the workpiece and the partial beams relative to one another. The partial beams are directed onto the workpiece incident at different angles to the normal of the irradiated surface and superimposed inside the workpiece such that the partial beams interfere with one another to form a sequence of intensity maxima inside the workpiece. The intensity at the intensity maxima is sufficiently high to modify the material of the workpiece so that a chain-like periodic pattern of material modifications is formed along a path defining a separation line.

    摘要: A method for separating a substrate of a brittle-hard material is provided. The method includes the steps of introducing defects into the substrate at a spacing from one another along a separation line using at least one pulsed laser beam; selecting an average spacing between neighboring defects and a number of laser pulses for generating a respective defect such that a breaking stress (σB) for separating the substrate along the separation line is smaller than a first reference stress (σR1) of the substrate and such that an edge strength σK of the separation edge obtained after separation is greater than a second reference stress (σR2) of the substrate; and separating the substrate after introducing the defects by applying a stress along the separation line.

    摘要: A method includes producing filamentary damages in a volume of a glass or glass ceramic element that are adjacently aligned along a separation line and that extend obliquely relative to a surface of the glass or glass ceramic element, and separating a portion from the glass or glass ceramic element along the separation line. The step of producing the filamentary damages includes directing laser pulses of an ultrashort pulse laser obliquely on the surface so that the laser pulses have a light propagation direction that extends obliquely relative to the surface and so that the filamentary damages resulting from the laser pulses have the longitudinal extension that extends obliquely relative to the surface, generating a plasma within the volume with the laser pulses, and displacing the laser pulses at points of incidence over the surface along the separation line.
