A stack assembly is provided that includes a glass layer having a thickness, a first and second primary surface and a compressive stress region extending from the second primary surface to a first depth; and a second layer coupled to the second primary surface. The glass layer is characterized by: an absence of failure when the layer is held at a bend radius from about 3 to 20 mm, a puncture resistance of greater than about 1.5 kgf when the second primary surface is supported by (i) an &#x2dc;25 &#x3bc;m thick PSA and (ii) an &#x2dc;50 &#x3bc;m thick PET layer, and the first primary surface is loaded with a stainless steel pin having a flat bottom with a 200 &#x3bc;m diameter, a pencil hardness of at least 8H, and a neutral axis within the glass layer located between the second primary surface and half of the first thickness.

Bendable glass stack assemblies and methods of making the same

A flexible glass laminate structure includes a flexible glass substrate having a thickness of no more than 0.3 mm. The flexible glass laminate structure includes a flexible glass layer including the flexible glass substrate. A property control layer is laminated to the flexible glass layer. A neutral axis of the flexible glass laminate is located outside the flexible glass layer when the flexible glass layer is in a compressive bend configuration.

Flexible glass laminate structures for architectural design and other applications

A silicon wafer-based photovoltaic module is described, which includes a first outer protective layer and a second outer protective layer, wherein both outer protective layers comprise a low- or no-sodium glass or low- or no-alkali compositions. The photovoltaic modules show resistance to water ingress, no or reduced potential-induced sodium ion drift, and reduced potential induced degradation.

Photovoltaic module package

An apparatus is provided for mechanically attaching an optical fiber to a substrate. The apparatus includes a clamping block formed of malleable material disposed adjacent a substrate. The fiber is disposed adjacent the clamping block and a securing member such as a fastener or spring is used to secure the fiber to the clamping block and substrate. The frictional forces between the fiber and the clamping block eliminate movement of the fiber relative to the substrate.

Non-adhesive mechanical fiber connection

The invention includes environmentally stable athermalized optical fiber gratings and methods of making such stabilized optical waveguide fiber grating. Stable humidity-resistant athermalized fiber Bragg gratings are provided by stabilizing a negative thermal expansion substrate and utilizing a durable frit to attach the fiber Bragg grating to the substrate.

Mini liquid level

A method of stabilizing a glass-ceramic body, particularly an aluminosilicate body, for use as a telecommunications component in a humid atmosphere, comprises coating the body with an aqueous solution of an alkali metasilicate, with a solution of a silane that is strongly non-polar with respect to water, or with successive applications of the metasilicate and the silane.
