Interface blocks, systems and methods for cutting substrates that transmit within a wavelength range using such interface blocks

摘要

The present application describes a system for cutting a substrate (102) that is transparent within a predetermined wavelength range within the electromagnetic spectrum and that will include an edge when removed from the substrate (102) sheet. The system is generally capable of emitting light along the optical path, and within the wavelength range, the substrate (102) is also positioned within the optical path of the laser with a predetermined wavelength laser (104) having transparency therein. And an interface block (108) made of a material that is transparent for at least a portion of the predetermined wavelength range within which the substrate (102) is also transparent, in the electromagnetic spectrum. The interface block (108) is positioned in the optical path between the substrate (102) and the optical element (106).
