Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A manufacturing method of a glass article having an organic film includes irradiating a first main surface of a glass plate having the first main surface and a second main surface, opposite each other, with a laser light of a first laser, to form an in-plane void region, in which voids are arrayed, on the first main surface, and internal void arrays, including voids arrayed from the in-plane void region to the second main surface, in the glass plate; depositing the organic film on the first main surface or the second main surface of the glass plate; and irradiating and scanning the first main surface or the second main surface, on which the organic film was deposited, with a laser light of a second laser, along the in-plane void region, to separate the glass article from the glass plate along the in-plane void region.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A manufacturing method of a glass article having an organic film, the manufacturing method comprising: irradiating a first main surface of a glass plate having the first main surface and a second main surface, opposite each other, with a laser light of a first laser, to form an in-plane void region, in which a plurality of voids are arrayed, on the first main surface, and to form a plurality of internal void arrays, each including a void or two or more voids arrayed from the in-plane void region to the second main surface, in the glass plate; depositing the organic film on the first main surface or the second main surface of the glass plate; and irradiating and scanning the first main surface or the second main surface of the glass plate, on which the organic film was deposited, with a laser light of a second laser that is different from the first laser, along the in-plane void region or a neighborhood of the in-plane void region, to separate one or more glass articles from the glass plate along the in-plane void region, wherein, in the irradiating and scanning, the first main surface or the second main surface is irradiated with the laser light of the second laser so that when a central portion of a surface of the organic film of the one or more glass articles separated from the glass plate on the first main surface side or the second main surface side is MC, and a point in an end face of the glass article in a top view is MP, wherein MP is a point in an end face other than intersection portions of two adjacent sides of a polygon, at the point MP, a count number for fluorine and a count number for silicon obtained by an X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) are I MP (F) and I MP (Si), respectively, and R MP is a ratio of the count number I MP (F) to the count number I MP (Si), and at the central portion MC, a count number for fluorine and a count number for silicon obtained by the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) are I MC (F) and I MC (Si), respectively, and R MC is a ratio of the count number I MC (F) to the count number I MC (Si), a ratio of the ratio R MP to the ratio R MC is 0.3 or more. 2. The manufacturing method of the glass article according to claim 1 , further comprising: performing a chemical strengthening process for the glass plate after the irradiating and before the depositing. 3. The manufacturing method of the glass article according to claim 1 , wherein an interval between adjacent voids in the in-plane void region falls within a range from 3 μm to 10 μm. 4. The manufacturing method of the glass article according to claim 1 , wherein the organic film is configured of a polymer having a siloxane linkage as a main skeleton and containing fluorine (F). 5. The manufacturing method of the glass article according to claim 1 , wherein, in the irradiating and scanning, the first main surface is irradiated with the laser light of the second laser so that when a value of a contact angle of the organic film with respect to a drop of water at the point MP is T MP , and a value of a contact angle of the organic film with respect to a drop of water at the central portion MC is T MC , a ratio of the value of the contact angle T MP to the value of the contact angle T MC is 0.90 or more. 6. A manufacturing method of a glass article having an organic film, the manufacturing method comprising: depositing the organic film on a first main surface of a glass plate having the first main surface and a second main surface, opposite each other; irradiating the first main surface of the glass plate with a laser light of a first laser, to form an in-plane void region, in which a plurality of voids are arrayed, on the first main surface, and to form a plurality of internal void arrays, each including a void or two or more voids arrayed from the in-plane void region to the second main surface, in the glass plate; and irradiating and scanning the first main surface of the glass plate with a laser light of a second laser that is different from the first laser, along the in-plane void region or a neighborhood of the in-plane void region, to separate one or more glass articles from the glass plate along the in-plane void region, wherein, in the irradiating and scanning, the first main surface is irradiated with the laser light of the second laser so that when a central portion of a surface of the organic film of the one or more glass articles separated from the glass plate on the first main surface side is MC, and a point in an end face of the glass article in a top view is MP, wherein MP is a point in an end face other than intersection portions of two adjacent sides of a polygon, at the point MP, a count number for fluorine and a count number for silicon obtained by an X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) are I MP (F) and I MP (Si), respectively, and R MP is a ratio of the count number I MP (F) to the count number I MP (Si), and at the central portion MC, a count number for fluorine and a count number for silicon obtained by the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) are I MC (F) and I MC (Si), respectively, and R MC is a ratio of the count number I MC (F) to the count number I MC (Si), a ratio of the ratio R MP to the ratio R MC is 0.3 or more.
