Abstract
Provided is a laser processing apparatus comprises a stage holding a substrate, the stage being movable in a first direction, a laser beam source radiating a laser beam onto the substrate, a dust-suction duct having a first optical path extending in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, the laser beam travelling along the first optical path thereof, and an air aspirator aspirating an air toward a direction opposite to the first direction, wherein the dust-suction duct includes a pair of air-guiding plates opposed to each other along a third direction perpendicular to the first and second directions, and wherein the pair of the air-guiding plates are configured to have a gap therebetween such that it is narrowest in an optical path region and gets wider as it is far away from the optical path region in upstream and downstream regions thereof.
