Cutting of sapphire, quartz, and glass by a passively-mode-locked pulsed Nd:YAG laser

Abstract

We were able to form a channel of microcracks in the transparent dielectric using the passively mode-locked pulsed wave of Nd:YAG radiation. The channel of microcracks started on the back side of a planar specimen; then it grew from pulse to pulse in the direction inside and ended on the face side.
