Flexible Glass. Enabling Thin, Lightweight, and Flexible Electronics

This book details flexible glass properties that enable use in emerging electronic and opto-electronic applications. Discussion includes flexible glass advantages compared to alternative substrate materials. Examples describe flexible glass in processes such as vacuum deposition, monolithic integration, printing, and roll-to-roll. Flexible glass demonstrations in emerging applications such as photovoltaics, flexible displays, and optical interconnects are also detailed. The reader will find in this unique book: Discussion of flexible glass processing and mechanical reliability. Demonstration of flexible glass in roll-to-roll (R2R) fabrication processes. Flexible glass substrate examples in displays, sensors, and photovoltaics. Flexible glass ecosystem description for identification of new applications.
