Title:
LASER CLEAVING METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/176526
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a laser cleaving method which, in processing of sapphire having a thickness of not less than several millimeters, reduces working time etc. and achieves high-quality parting. A laser light source 103 emits a laser beam 3 at a wavelength for which a sapphire plate 1 has a light absorbance of not less than 1% but less than 50%, and thermal stress which has been generated by the emission of the laser beam 3 is used to carry out cleavage by causing a crack to develop inside the sapphire plate 1, starting from a minute defect that is provided in the sapphire plate 1. The laser light source 103 emits a laser beam 3 which has a laser output power of not less than 60 W.
