Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method of making a glass container with an optically readable graphic data carrier. A glass container is exposed to electromagnetic radiation to produce discoloration within the glass of the container, and then focused beam energy is directed at the glass container in a pattern corresponding to a desired graphic data carrier to heat the glass and selectively remove the discoloration in the pattern corresponding to the desired graphic data carrier.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method of manufacturing a glass container with an optically readable graphic data carrier integrated into the container, which includes the steps of: (a) producing a glass melt including a bulk composition doped with at least one electromagnetic-radiation-sensitive dopant; (b) forming a glass container from the glass melt that includes a wall having inner and outer surfaces; (c) annealing the glass container; and then (d) selectively exposing a…
