Oven-less process, used for annealing glass coatings, involves laser beam swept over surface to anneal coating applied to glass. Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) is limited, and material can be handled relatively soon after annealing is complete. Process promotes light transmission efficiency while reducing electrical surface resistance and preventing delamination. It also performs recrystalization of...
