Abstract
This paper presents results concerning the action of a pulsed-periodic TEA CO2 laser with microsecond lasing pulses on various glasses and p lates of industrial ceramic and gives a qualitative explanation of the se results. It is shown that the action of such laser radiation signif icantly (severalfold) decreases the width of the microcrack zone in th e processing region of these brittle insulators, which possess low the rmal conductivity.
