Photosensitive glass, also called photostructurable glass (PSG) or photomachinable glass, is a glass in the lithium-silicate family of glasses onto which images can be etched using shortwave radiations, such as ultraviolet.[1] Photosensitive glass was first discovered by S. Donald Stookey in 1937.[2][3][4]
