A method of producing a glass substrate having a hole is provided. The method includes preparing the glass substrate having a first surface and a second surface facing each other; forming a hole in the glass substrate with a laser; and annealing the glass substrate placed on a first support substrate having a thermal expansion coefficient whose difference from a thermal expansion coefficient of the glass substrate is less than or equal to 1 ppm/K, where the first support substrate is placed on a second support substrate having a thermal expansion coefficient of less than or equal to 10 ppm/K.

Method of producing glass substrate having hole and glass laminate for annealing

A glass substrate includes a first surface and a second surface that are opposite to each other. Multiple through holes pierce through the glass substrate from the first surface to the second surface. Each of five through holes randomly selected from the multiple through holes includes a first opening at the first surface and a second opening at the second surface. The approximate circle of the first opening has a diameter greater than a diameter of the approximate circle of the second opening. The first opening has a roundness of 5 &#x3bc;m or less. Perpendicularity expressed by P=t/tranges from 1.00000 to 1.00015, where P is the perpendicularity, tis the distance between the center of the approximate circle of the first opening and the center of the approximate circle of the second opening, and tis the thickness of the glass substrate.

Glass substrate

A glass substrate includes a plurality of through holes that penetrate from a first surface to a second surface of the glass substrate. Each through hole has an upper aperture with a first diameter on the first surface and a lower aperture with a second diameter on the second surface. For each of ten through holes selected from the plurality of through holes, a side wall length is obtained from the first and second diameters and the thickness of the glass substrate, and an R value is obtained by dividing the side wall length by the thickness of the glass substrate. The R values fall within a range of 1 to 1.1. A B value, obtained from dividing a difference between the greatest R value and the smallest R value by an average of the R values followed by multiplication with 100, is 5% or less.
