Abstract
A method is proposed for the bonding of quartz to anodic aluminum oxide by means of the localized heating effect induced by a focused laser beam. The characteristics of the bonding region are investigated by means of SEM, EDX and XRD. It is shown that given a laser power of 2 W, the bonding strength is equal to approximately 8 kg, and is thus higher than that achieved in a typical thermal bonding method (~5 kg). Overall, the results show that the proposed laser-bonding method provides a simple solution for the rapid and selective area bonding of quartz to anodic aluminum oxide.
