| abstract |
A method for the manufacture of colored structures of a glass, particularly for applying an inscription to the glass, by locally heating volume elements of the glass by means of a laser beam, which glass contains ions of metals which, in the form of submicroscopic particles, color the glass wherein the local heating of the non-doped glass is accomplished through a solution or gel of a metallic salt which transmits the laser beam well and is directly contacted with a surface of the glass. |
