GLASS BUMPS ON GLASS ARTICLES AND METHODS OF LASER-INDUCED GROWTH

A glass article having a glass bump formed integrally thereon by laser-irradiation methods. The glass bump includes a lower region connected to an upper region by an inflection region. The lower region projects from a surface of the glass article and is defined by concavely rounded sides with a radi...

Zusammenfassung:A glass article having a glass bump formed integrally thereon by laser-irradiation methods. The glass bump includes a lower region connected to an upper region by an inflection region. The lower region projects from a surface of the glass article and is defined by concavely rounded sides with a radius of curvature R1. The upper region includes a transition portion and a top portion. The transition portion is defined by convexly rounded sides with a radius of curvature R2. The transition portion connects to the lower portion via the inflection region. The upper portion connects to the transition portion and is defined by a convexly rounded top surface with a radius of curvature R3, which is greater than radius of curvature R2.
