  • Publication number: 20100126221
    Abstract: A process for making glass sheet with low compaction suitable for high temperature applications, such as low-temperature polysilicon-based TFT displays, and glass sheets thus made. The glass sheet desirably has an anneal point of at least 765° C., a CTE at most 42×10?7/° C. The process involves cooling the glass melt form a temperature corresponding to a viscosity of 1.0×1010 poise to a temperature corresponding to a viscosity of 1.0×1015 poise at a cooling rate CR, where CR?5° C./second. The absolute value of the measured compaction of the glass sheet desirably is at most 175 ppm upon being re-heated to 675° C. for a period of time.

  • Publication number: 20100009154
    Abstract: A strengthened glass that does not exhibit frangible behavior when subjected to impact or contact forces, and a method of strengthening a glass. The glass may be strengthened by subjecting it to multiple, successive, ion exchange treatments. The multiple ion exchange treatments provide a local compressive stress maximum at a depth of the strengthened layer and a second local maximum at or near (e.g., within 10 ?m) the surface of the glass.

  • Publication number: 20090286091
    Abstract: A rare-earth-containing glass material having a composition, expressed in mole percentages on and oxide basis, comprising: SiO2: 66-75 Al2O3: 11-17 B2O3: 0-4 MgO: 1-6.5 CaO: 2-7 SrO: 0-4 BaO: 0-4 Y2O3: 0-4 La2O3: 0-4 Y2O3+La2O3: 0.1-4. The inclusion of Y2O3 and/or La2O3 in the composition reduces the T2.3 of the glass thereby allowing higher annealing-point glasses to be produced. The glass is particularly useful for low-temperature polycrystalline silicon-based semiconductor devices.
