This photosensitive glass is made by continuous melting for uniform photosensitivity. After UV exposure and heat treatment, crystals form in the exposed areas, and acid etching removes them to leave fine high-aspect-ratio structures and through-holes. A second exposure and heat treatment turns the glass into a glass-ceramic for extra strength. It is used for microfluidics, RF components and MEMS, and it cuts and bonds with conventional methods.
