LASER PROCESSING OF TRANSPARENT ARTICLE USING MULTIPLE FOCI

摘要

Disclosed herein are transparent articles and methods and systems for processing transparent articles. Systems for processing transparent articles, e.g. cutting glass, may include at least one initial laser and at least one polarizing beam splitter, where the polarizing beam splitter is configured to split an initial laser beam into a plurality of laser beams, and wherein the plurality of laser beams are useful for processing transparent articles. Methods for processing transparent articles comprise creating at least one flaw in the transparent articles with a plurality of laser beams.
