Laser Services<br />

The following are <strong>design</strong>ed to provide engineers with <strong>design</strong> <strong>guide</strong>lines, inspection methods, and<br />

quality standards for laser machining/profiling, drilling, and scribing of <strong>CoorsTek</strong> thick-film alumina<br />

<strong>substrates</strong>. These <strong>guide</strong>lines will aid in optimizing lasered substrate <strong>design</strong> in order to meet your<br />

technical requirements cost-effectively. The illustration below depicts some of our laser capabilities.<br />

If a lasered substrate <strong>design</strong> does not comply with these <strong>guide</strong>lines, we can still offer options to<br />

your specific <strong>design</strong> requirements. <strong>CoorsTek</strong> will indicate exceptions to customer drawings and<br />

specifications should they differ from these <strong>guide</strong>lines, for the purpose of offering alternatives and<br />

possible cost reduction. We offer services in <strong>design</strong> consultation, rapid prototyping and expedited<br />

deliveries for laser scribing, machining and annealing.<br />

Laser Scribing<br />

<strong>CoorsTek</strong> offers special differential scribing to enhance preferential singulation. By varying the laser<br />

pulse spacing and depth in the (x) and (y) scribe directions, the sequence of singulation may be<br />

controlled more precisely. Enhanced laser scribing helps to prevent hooking, chipping and premature<br />

breakage, which improves process yields. The following illustrations and tables show typical<br />

scribe line configurations and tolerances.<br />
