The lately developments of laser cutting technique of ceramic materials with hard and brittle properties in recent years are reviewed. According to the emphatic analysis of processing, the 4 kinds of laser damage-free cutting methods, including traditional optimized parameter method, laser multiple-pass cutting, laser cutting with controlled fracture by stress guiding method and aided laser cutting method, are summarized. Combined with the research experience of the authors, the present problems of laser cutting of ceramics with different kinds of thicknesses and dimensions are proposed and analyzed.
