A glass article having a low level of grainy appearance that can appear to have a shift in the pattern of the grains with changing viewing angle of a display, or 'sparkle.' The glass article&#x2014;which, in some embodiments, is a transparent glass sheet&#x2014;has small-angle-scattering properties and/or distinctness-of-reflected-image (DOI), leading to improved viewability in display applications, especially under high ambient lighting conditions. In some embodiments, the antiglare surface of the glass sheet is an etched surface, with no foreign coating present on the antiglare surface.

Glass having antiglare surface with low display sparkle

Surface modification layers and associated heat treatments, that may be provided on a sheet, a carrier, or both, to control both room-temperature van der Waals (and/or hydrogen) bonding and high temperature covalent bonding between the thin sheet and carrier. The room-temperature bonding is controlled so as to be sufficient to hold the thin sheet and carrier together during vacuum processing, wet processing, and/or ultrasonic cleaning processing, for example. And at the same time, the high temperature covalent bonding is controlled so as to prevent a permanent bond between the thin sheet and carrier during high temperature processing, as well as maintain a sufficient bond to prevent delamination during high temperature processing.

Bulk annealing of glass sheets

A method of examining a cellular structure includes the steps of providing an inspecting device, a neural network and a target cellular structure that includes a plurality of target cells extending therethrough and further includes a target face exposing an arrangement of the target cells; inspecting the arrangement of cells on the face of the target cellular structure using the inspecting device; representing the arrangement of cells with numerically defined target cell parameters; inputting the target cell parameters into the neural network; and generating an output from the neural network based on the target cell parameters, the output being indicative of a strength of the target cellular structure.

Glass articles and methods for controlled bonding of glass sheets with carriers

Methods for making electronic devices on thin sheets bonded to carriers. A surface modification layer and associated heat treatments, may be provided on a sheet, a carrier, or both, to control both room-temperature van der Waals (and/or hydrogen) bonding and high temperature covalent bonding between the thin sheet and carrier during the electronic device processing. The room-temperature bonding is controlled so as to be sufficient to hold the thin sheet and carrier together during vacuum processing, wet processing, and/or ultrasonic cleaning processing, during the electronic device processing. And at the same time, the high temperature covalent bonding is controlled so as to prevent a permanent bond between the thin sheet and carrier during high temperature processing, during the electronic device processing, as well as maintain a sufficient bond to prevent delamination during high temperature processing.

Methods for processing electronic devices

A glass article including: at least one anti-glare surface having haze, distinctness-of-image, surface roughness, and uniformity properties, as defined herein. A method of making the glass article includes, for example: depositing deformable particles on at least a portion of a glass surface of the article; causing the deposited deformable particles on the surface to deform and adhere to the surface; and contacting the surface having the adhered particles with an etchant to form the anti-glare surface. A display system that incorporates the glass article, as defined herein, is also disclosed.

Anti-glare surface treatment method and articles thereof

A transparent glass substrate having an antiglare surface that minimizes sparkle. The antiglare surface has a roughened portion that surface that has a RMS amplitude of at least amplitude of at least about 80 nm. The antiglare surface may also include a portion that is unroughened, or flat. The fraction of the antiglare surface that is roughened is at least about 0.9, and the fraction of the surface that is unroughened is less than about 0.10. The antiglare surface has a pixel power deviation of less than about 7%.

Transparent glass substrate having antiglare surface

A glass article including: at least one anti-glare surface having haze, distinctness-of-image, surface roughness, uniformity properties and sparkle properties, as defined herein. A method of making the glass article includes, for example, slot coating a suspension of particles on at least one surface of the article to provide a particulated mask covering from about 40 to 92% of the coated surface area; contacting the at least one surface of the article having the particulated mask and an etchant to form the anti-glare surface, and optionally continuously polishing the suspension of particles just prior to slot coating. A display system that incorporates the glass article, as defined herein, is also disclosed.

Method for sparkle control and articles thereof

A glass etching medium and a method for etching the surface of a glass sheet to modify surface flaw characteristics without degrading the optical quality of the sheet surface, wherein the etching medium is a thickened aqueous acidic fluoride-containing paste comprising at least one dissolved, water-soluble, high-molecular-weight poly (ethylene oxide) polymer thickener.

Glass etching media and methods

A radial cell ceramic honeycomb structure is provided that is particularly adapted for use as a catalytic carrier or a particulate filter in an automotive or diesel exhaust system. The honeycomb structure includes a network of interconnected webs having a central axis. The network of webs includes radial webs of varying lengths, only some of which substantially extend the entire radial length of the network, and tangential webs that intersect to define rings of gas-conducting radial cells, and a rounded outer skin that surrounds the cells formed by the interconnected webs. The radial webs extending to the periphery of the network join an inner edge of the outer skin in a substantially orthogonal orientation to reduce thermally generated stresses and to increase strength of the resulting structure. The number of radial webs in the network changes along the radial length at transition zones that are defined by one of the tangential webs such that a desired cell density is achieved across the network.

Radial cell ceramic honeycomb structure

Honeycomb structures are formed at reduced extrusion pressures and high extrusion rates via extrusion through open cavity honeycomb extrusion dies incorporating large, closely spaced feed channels delivering extrudable material to die honeycomb forming sections incorporating extrudate distribution means in the form of inverted conical or pyramidal flow dividers incorporating inclined flow-guiding surfaces that guide the extrudate into the base ends of plural discharge slot intersections and/or slot segments in direct line with the feed channels.
