Techniques and/or related methods for laser ablation/scribing of coatings in pre-laminated assemblies and post-laminated assemblies

摘要

Certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention are directed to a pre-laminated assembly or a post-laminated assembly, a pre-assembled insulated glass unit or a post-assembled insulated glass unit, and/or to slow or prevent corrosion of a coating. or for laser ablating/scribing the peripheral edge of a coating (eg, low-emissivity, mirror, or other coating) on glass or other substrate in another article. will be. For example, a laser of 1064 nm or other wavelength can be applied to a metal and/or metallic layer(s) in a low-emissivity or other coating provided to an already-laminated or pre-assembled insulating glass unit or other article, e.g. For example, it can be used to scribe a line around its perimeter. The scribe line reduces the electron mobility from the center of the coating to the surrounding environment, thus slowing down and sometimes even preventing the onset of electrochemical corrosion. Related articles, methods and kits related thereto are also contemplated herein.
