Methods for producing a glass sheet are provided. The methods can include forming a glass ribbon from molten glass, applying a polymer precursor to at least a portion of a first or second major surface of the glass ribbon, curing the polymer precursor to form a polymer coating, and separating the glass ribbon to produce at least one glass sheet. Glass ribbons and glass sheets produced by these methods are also disclosed.

Provided is a method of manufacturing a glass sheet, which comprises a conveying step of conveying a glass sheet (G3) by holding an upper part of the glass sheet (G3) in a vertical posture. The conveying step comprises a first conveying step of conveying the glass sheet (G3) in a first direction along a direction perpendicular to a main surface of the glass sheet (G3), and a second conveying step of conveying the glass sheet (G3) in a second direction along a direction parallel to the main surface after the first conveying step. When a conveying direction of the glass sheet is changed from the first direction to the second direction, a lower part of the main surface (G3y) is supported by a roller (41) of a support portion (4) from a forward side in the conveying direction of the glass sheet (G3) conveyed in the first direction.

This method includes a laser irradiation step of radiating, in at least a part of a preset cleaving line (CL) of a mother glass sheet (MG), laser light (L) to a position (OSP) separated from the preset cleaving line (CL) so that a crack (CR2) propagates along the preset cleaving line (CL).

A method of forming a glass electrochemical sensor is described. In some embodiments, the method may include forming a plurality of electrical through glass vias (TGVs) in an electrode substrate; filling each of the plurality of electrical TGVs with an electrode material; forming a plurality of contact TGVs in the electrode substrate; filling each of the plurality of contact TGVs with a conductive material; patterning the conductive material to connect the electrical TGVs with the contact TGVs; forming a cavity in a first glass layer; and bonding a first side of the first glass layer to the electrode substrate.

A method for processing a transparent workpiece includes forming a contour of defect in the transparent workpiece and separating the transparent workpiece along the contour using an infrared laser beam. During separation, the method also includes detecting a position and propagation direction of a crack tip relative to a reference location and propagation direction of an infrared beam spot, determining a detected distance and angular offset between the crack tip and the reference location of the infrared beam spot, comparing the detected distance to a preset distance, comparing the detected angular offset to a preset angular offset, and modifying at least one of a power of the infrared laser beam or a speed of relative translation between the infrared laser beam and the transparent workpiece in response to a difference between the detected distance and the preset distance and between the detected angular offset and the preset angular offset.

Methods, systems, devices, and substrates are described. In some examples, an apparatus may include optical components configured to adjust an input to a laser cutting optic for modifying a substrate (e.g., an optically transmissive substrate). In some examples, the optical components may include a beam deflector, a first optic configured to output a first laser beam with a first beam width, and a second optic configured to output a second laser beam with a second beam width. In some examples, the beam deflector may modify an optical path of a pulsed laser (e.g., through the first optic or through the second optic), which may result in an input to the laser cutting optic having a beam width corresponding to the first optic or the second optic. The different input beam widths may modify a line focus intensity of an output of the laser cutting optic when modifying the substrate.

A cutting method of a mother substrate includes: irradiating a laser to the mother substrate at first intervals along a first cutting line overlapping dummy areas positioned adjacent to sides of each of display panel areas on the mother substrate; and irradiating the laser to the mother substrate at second intervals different from the first intervals along the first cutting line overlapping edge areas positioned adjacent to corner portions of each of the display panel areas.

Systems and method for aligning components of photonic systems are provided. An optical component for integration into and optical coupling within a photonic system is created by separating the component from a substrate to form a precisely defined surface on the optical component, the surface being precisely spaced from an optical feature of the component to be optically coupled within the photonic system. The precisely defined surface of the optical component is then pressed against a reference surface to position the optical feature in a predefined position and/or orientation for optical coupling of the optical feature within the photonic system. Passive precise alignment and optical coupling is thus provided without the need for iterative readjustment, multi-axis feedback, or active feedback.
