A glass element having a thickness from 25 μm to 125 μm, a first primary surface, a second primary surface, and a compressive stress region extending from the first primary surface to a first depth, the region defined by a compressive stress σI of at least about 100 MPa at the first primary surface. Further, the glass element has a stress profile such that it does not fail when it is subject to 200,000 cycles of bending to a target bend radius of from 1 mm to 20 mm, by the parallel plate method. Still further, the glass element has a puncture resistance of greater than about 1.5 kgf when the first primary surface of the glass element is loaded with a tungsten carbide ball having a diameter of 1.5 mm.

Bendable glass stack assemblies, articles and methods of making the same

A method includes heating a glass preform having a plurality of glass layers and drawing the glass preform in a distal direction to form a drawn glass sheet extending distally from the glass preform and having the plurality of glass layers. The drawn glass sheet is thinner than the glass preform. The drawn glass sheet can be rolled onto a collection spool. At least a portion of a glass layer can be removed from the drawn glass sheet. An exemplary glass sheet includes a first glass layer, a second glass layer adjacent to the first glass layer, and a thickness of at most about 0.1 mm. An exemplary ion exchanged glass sheet includes a thickness of at most about 0.1 mm and a surface layer that is under a compressive stress and extends into an interior of the glass sheet to a depth of layer.

Thin glass sheet and system and method for forming the same

An ion exchangeable glass having a high degree of resistance to damage caused by abrasion, scratching, indentation, and the like. The glass comprises alumina, BO, and alkali metal oxides, and contains boron cations having three-fold coordination. The glass, when ion exchanged, has a Vickers crack initiation threshold of at least 10 kilogram force (kgf).

Zircon compatible, ion exchangeable glass with high damage resistance

An aluminoborosilicate glass includes alkaline earth oxides and is substantially free of alkali oxides. The glass may be fusion formable and may be useful as a substrate or other article, such as with consumer and commercial electronic devices.

Aluminoborosilicate glass substantially free of alkali oxides

According to one embodiment, a glass article may include a glass body having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. The first surface of the glass body may be etched to a depth less than or equal to about 25% of the maximum initial flaw depth Ai of a flaw population present in the first surface. The flaw population of the first surface is etched to selectively remove material adjacent to each flaw of the flaw population along the maximum initial flaw depth Ai. When the glass article is under uniaxial compressive loading, at least a portion of the first surface is in tension and a uniaxial compressive strength of the glass article is greater than or equal to 90% of a uniaxial compressive strength of a flaw-free glass article.

Glass articles and methods for improving the reliability of glass articles

A method of making a glass includes batching constituents, including silica, alumina, boria, magnesia, quicklime, and strontia, where one or more of the constituents is from 'dirty' raw material that includes a relatively large amount of sulfur. The method further includes melting and mixing the batch to make glass having sulfur content but free of blisters, suitable for high performance displays.

Glasses for high performance displays

A glass element having a thickness from 25 &#x3bc;m to 125 &#x3bc;m, a first primary surface, a second primary surface, and a compressive stress region extending from the first primary surface to a first depth, the region defined by a compressive stress GI of at least about 100 MPa at the first primary surface. Further, the glass element has a stress profile such that it does not fail when it is subject to 200,000 cycles of bending to a target bend radius of from 1 mm to 20 mm, by the parallel plate method. Still further, the glass element has a puncture resistance of greater than about 1.5 kgf when the first primary surface of the glass element is loaded with a tungsten carbide ball having a diameter of 1.5 mm.

Compounds, compositions, articles, devices, and methods for the manufacture of light guide plates and back light units including such light guide plates made from glass. In some embodiments, light guide plates (LGPs) are provided that have similar or superior optical properties to light guide plates made from PMMA and that have exceptional mechanical properties such as rigidity, CTE and dimensional stability in high moisture conditions as compared to PMMA light guide plates.
