With inherent benefits such as surface quality, transmission, hermiticity, and thermal and dimensional stability, ultra-slim flexible glass substrates (≤200m thick) enable high-quality and long-life displays. This invited paper provides an overview of flexible glass substrates and how they help optimize flexible display designs, materials, and fabrication processes.
The innovation of ITRI's roll‐to‐roll (R2R) technology is capable of handling 100 μm ultra‐thin flexible glass (UTFG) with in‐house designed equipment. By applying this R2R technology on roll‐UTFG, the total thickness of touch panel module with 0.4 mm cover lens can be reduced to 0.6 mm only. This complete solution provides a reliable and cost‐effective manufacturing approach making commercialization in the near future.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
