Existing laser cracking equipment (traditional SiC equipment) relies on a single-light path positioning system and cannot achieve nanoscale real-time feedback of the crack propagation trajectory. For this reason, this application now proposes a three-light coaxial laser-induced wafer cracking system and a quantized stress field control method; compared with the mechanical cracking of the splitter in CN212528279U, this solution achieves contactless processing through laser-induced modification to avoid material damage. Different from the dual-light path grooving device in CN117798508A, this solution achieves real-time closed-loop control of crack propagation through a three-light coaxial system.
