Abstract

The results of a successful application of laser-controlled thermo-splitting (LCT) for precision cutting of glass, ceramic, and other brittle nonmetallic materials are presented. Other forms of the LCT method are examined: laser de-faceting, laser parallel thermo-splitting, and application of optical grids and rulings.
