Abstract

The invention provides a processing method for etching and cutting sapphire through a laser-induced KOH chemical reaction, and belongs to the field of special processing. The processing method mainlycomprises the following four steps that (1) the surface of the sapphire is uniformly covered with a layer of KOH powder; (2) laser system parameters and process parameters of sapphire laser etching are determined; (3) after the laser scanning path and the scanning speed are determined, etching of the sapphire is conducted by a laser beam according to the scanning path; and (4) if the sapphire is cut, the laser beam is split in the groove etching direction; and if the sapphire is etched, the step is omitted. According to the processing method, two etching methods of fusion KOH corrosion of thesapphire and laser ablation of the sapphire are combined, so that etching with the high etching rate of the sapphire is conducted; based on the processing method, a sapphire thin plate is cut by meansof the crack controlling method; a complex two-dimensional etched groove can be etched on the surface of the sapphire; and due to the fact that the etching mechanism of the processing method is thatsapphire corrosion is mainly achieved through the chemical reaction, the high etching rate under the condition of low crack damage can be achieved, and high-quality linear cutting of the sapphire thinplate can also be realized.
