초록

Nd:YAG laser of 355nm wavelength, which amounts to 3.5eV, produced by a harmonic generator was used to create Ag metallic particles as seeds for nucleation in photosensitive glass containing Ag+ and Ce3+. The pulse widths and frequency of the laser were 8ns and 10Hz, respectively. For crystalline growth, heat-treatment following laser irradiation was carried out at $570^{\circ}C$ fur 1h. Then, the LiAlSi3O8. crystal phase appeared in the laser irradiated lithium aluminum silicate glass. We present the effect of laser-induced nucleation compared with spontaneous nucleation by heat treatment for crystallization in the glass.
