Ceramic Scribing Using Talon Pulsed UV and Green Lasers

Download Whitepaper
Scribing is one of the commonly performed ceramic machining operations. In this Application Focus, we consider two cases of laser scribing using Spectra-Physics’ Talon® family of pulsed nanosecond ultraviolet (UV) and green lasers: (1) shallow scribing (for scribe-andbreak process) and (2) deep scribing (for full-cut process). We studied both processes in two widely used ceramic materials: alumina and aluminum nitride. For high processing speeds, we tested high power green and UV Talon product offerings: the green (40 W) model Talon 532-40 and the UV (30 W) model Talon 355-30.
