LASER PROCESSING METHOD FOR TRANSPARENT PLATE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a laser processing method for a transparent plate which forms a laser processed groove in a transparent plate such as a glass plate without incurring cracks.

SOLUTION: The laser processing method for a transparent plate having a predetermined breaking line includes a step of applying a pulsed laser beam to the transparent plate along the breaking line to thereby form a laser processed groove. The pulsed laser beam has an absorption wavelength to the transparent plate. The repetition frequency of the pulsed laser beam is set to 200 kHz or more and the energy density per pulse of the pulsed laser beam is set to 3.8 J/cm2or more.
