    摘要: A laser processing method which can efficiently perform laser processing while minimizing the deviation of the converging point of a laser beam in end parts of an object to be processed is provided.
    This laser processing method comprises a preparatory step of holding a lens at an initial position set such that a converging point is located at a predetermined position within the object; a first processing step (S11 and S12) of emitting a first laser beam for processing while holding the lens at the initial position, and moving the lens and the ltd object relative to each other along a main surface so as to form a modified region in one end part of a line to cut; and a second processing step (S13 and S14) of releasing the lens from being held at the initial position after forming the modified region in the one end part of the line to cut, and then moving the lens and the object relative to each other along the main surface while adjusting the gap between the lens and the main surface after the release, so as to form the modified region.

    摘要: In a light source device, a control unit causes an energy density of a laser light in a lighting start region RS when a laser support light is maintained to be lower than an energy density of the laser light in the lighting start region RS when the laser support light is put on. For this reason, when the laser support light is maintained, a laser light L is radiated to the lighting start region RS at an energy density of a degree where sputtering does not occur. Therefore, in the light source device, because sputtering in a light emission sealing body can be suppressed, a sufficiently long life can be realized.

    摘要: A substrate dividing method which can thin and divide a substrate while preventing chipping and cracking from occurring. This substrate dividing method comprises the steps of irradiating a semiconductor substrate 1 having a front face 3 formed with functional devices 19 with laser light while positioning a light-converging point within the substrate, so as to form a modified region including a molten processed region due to multiphoton absorption within the semiconductor substrate 1, and causing the modified region including the molten processed region to form a starting point region for cutting; and grinding a rear face 21 of the semiconductor substrate 1 after the step of forming the starting point region for cutting such that the semiconductor substrate 1 attains a predetermined thickness.
