LASER SCRIBING PLATFORM WITH MOVING GANTRY

Laser scribing can be performed on a workpiece such as a substrate with layers formed thereon for use in a solar cell without need to move the workpiece during the scribing process. A series of lasers can be used to concurrently remove material from multiple positions on the workpiece. These laser o...

Zusammenfassung:Laser scribing can be performed on a workpiece such as a substrate with layers formed thereon for use in a solar cell without need to move the workpiece during the scribing process. A series of lasers can be used to concurrently remove material from multiple positions on the workpiece. These laser outputs are directed to the workpiece using an optical system partially attached to a gantry. The gantry can be moved longitudinally and the portion of the optical system attached to the gantry can be moved laterally so that the combined outputs of all lasers can be directed to substantially any position on the workpiece without moving the workpiece.
