A textured glass substrate along with articles comprising a textured glass substrate and methods of making are provided. The substrates retain the mechanical and optical properties of the untextured glass, while the process provides a reliable and low cost, easy scale up method. The resulting glass substrates are of particular use for light extraction in organic light emitting diode structures.

Textured glass for light extraction enhancement of OLED lighting

Anti-glare glass-based articles and methods of processing a glass based article to reduce warp are disclosed. A method for processing a glass-based article includes etching a first surface of the glass article to create a first anti-glare surface having a plurality of first anti-glare features and etching a second surface of the glass-based article to create a second anti-glare surface having a plurality of second anti-glare features. At least one of a length, a width, and a diagonal of the glass-based article is greater than or equal to 500 mm. A difference of warp between a first warp value before etching the first surface and the second surface and a second warp value after etching the first surface and the second surface is less than or equal to 0.15 mm across each of one or more 500 mm intervals of length, width, or diagonal of the glass-based article.

Embodiments of an anti-glare article and methods for forming the same are disclosed. In one or more embodiments, the anti-glare article includes a substrate having a surface, and a plurality of features disposed on the surface, wherein about 50% or more of the plurality of features comprise a normalized area in the range from about 0.5 to about 1.5, and the normalized area is defined as the relationship (surface area of a feature/average surface area of all features). In some embodiments, about 90% or more of the features have a surface area of about 100 micrometers or less. The anti-glare article exhibits a PPDr of about 5% or less, a transmission haze of less than about 20% and a DOI of less than about 90%. Methods of forming the substrate are also disclosed and include etching a surface of a substrate with an etchant comprising a water soluble metal ion salt.

An apparatus for producing anti-glare surfaces includes an etching cream dipping tank and a sub-tank arranged to receive a slurry of etching cream. A pumping unit is fluidly coupled to the etching cream dipping tank and the sub-tank such that the pumping unit is operable to selectively self-circulate the slurry of etching cream in the sub-tank to improve homogeneity of the etching cream and transfer a volume of the homogenized etching cream from the sub-tank to the etching cream dipping tank.
