Flat Glass with Excellent Thickness Control

Watch Now

Substrate flatness is particularly critical in the production of panels for liquid crystal display (LCD) TVs. Any deviations from flatness can result in distortions. With Corning’s proprietary fusion process, the glass is formed in air and drawn down to form an incredibly flat piece of glass with very precise thickness controls.

Find Corning at SID's Technical Symposium

As Corning Display continues to innovate, we're excited to present some of our latest work at SID Display Week. Access this content via the SID website, where new content is published daily. Visit our Technical Resources to discover more. 

  • Integration of Through-Glass Via Interconnects Within Thin-Film Transistor Active-Matrix Backplanes
    • Corning Presenters: Sean Garner, Rajesh Vaddi, Mandakini Kanungo, Chukwudi Okoro, Daniel Levesque, Barry Paddock, Prantik Mazumder
    • Session 20: Advanced Active Matrix Backplanes
    • Wednesday, May 11, 9:20 AM - 9:40 AM

    There is increasing interest in minimizing display bezels for creating truly borderless displays. The current approach utilizes the backplane perimeter to achieve the required electrical interconnection. In contrast, metallized through-glass via interconnects can be distributed across the backplane surface. This paper summarizes progress toward integrating metallized via interconnects with thin-film transistors.

  • Precision Micro-Optics on Display Technical Glass for Innovative Display Designs
    • Corning Presenters: Antoine Lesuffleur, Casey Kang, Alejandro Aguilar, Sang-Mook Lee, Chao Yu, Chengshuai Li, Robert Sharps
    • Session 36: Novel Processes & MicroOptics
    • Wednesday, May 11, 4:30 PM - 4:50 PM

    This paper introduces micro-optics fabrication on technical display glass. It improves display efficiency and enables innovative optical designs. The key value proposition is micro-optics alignment with the display pixels. Technical data will be presented demonstrating the performance advantage of precision micro-optics on technical glass compared to plastic substrates, and scalability to large-size manufacturing.

  • Method to Suppress Tiled Display Seam Visibility
    • Corning Presenters: Shenping Li, Alexander Cuno, Sean Garner 
    • Session 51: Large and Tiled Display Technologies
    • Thursday, May 12, 1:30 PM - 1:50 PM 

    A method is proposed to suppress seam visibility in a tiled display by combining an engineered substrate and optical base surface along with a microstructure cover plate made by micro-replication technology. Raytracing modelling matched experimental results in suppressing the seam visibility.

  • Glass Solution for Zero Border Design (ZBD) TVs: Advantages and Prevention of Border Light Leakage
    • Corning Presenters: Tzu-Ling Niu, Chi-Hsiang Yang, Wei-Shin Chen, Bor-Kai Wang, Hsuan-Yu Teng, Tomohiro Ishikawa, Xiang-Dong Mi, Andy Sullivan
    • Session 51: Large and Tiled Display Technologies
    • Thursday, May 12, 1:50 PM - 2:10 PM

    A new glass diffuser plate is proposed to reduce light leakage in large-viewing-angle narrow-border (<1 mm) LCD TVs. Simulations show that Corning glass with a precise cutting tolerance of ± 0.1 mm and edge finishing reduces light leakage by ~40%. Other light leakage improvements are described.

  • Patterned Glass Diffuser for MiniLED Count Reduction
    • Corning Presenters: Xiang-Dong Mi, Songfeng Han, Chengshuai Li, Kirk Allen, Wei Yi, Kaihui Chen, James Lamacchia, Elfren Elvenia, Michael Ouyang, Tzu-Ling Niu, Guanglei Du, Horst Schreiber
    • Session 64: Mini-LED BLU for HDR Display
    • Friday, May 13, 9:40 AM - 10:00 AM

    The authors report their progress on a monitor-size, dimensionally and thermally stable miniLED backlight enabled by a patterned glass diffuser (PGD). This backlight uses 5,000+ fewer miniLEDs per monitor – 4/9 times compared to a reference miniLED backlight relying on a thicker diffuser plate, while it is thinner and achieves similar uniformity and luminance compared to the reference miniLED backlight.

  • Glass Circuit Board for MiniLED Backlight of LCD
    • Corning Presenters: Young-suk Lee, Joon-soo Kim, Byung-doo Moon, Hyung-soo Moon, Toru Nakamura
    • Session 64: Mini-LED BLU for HDR Display
    • Friday, May 13, 10:20 AM - 10:40 AM

    A new glass substrate has been developed for miniLED backlights for LCDs. The advantages over organic substrates are more dimming zones, better LED transfer yield and reliability, and smaller LED sizes, larger boards, and more efficient thermal management. A 32-in. circuit on glass was developed for Gen 5 scale.
