A window for a display device that includes: a base substrate; a first coating layer disposed on a first surface of the base substrate; and a second coating layer disposed on a second surface that overlaps the first surface of the base substrate, wherein the base substrate further includes a vertical surface perpendicular to the first surface and the second surface, and the first coating layer overlaps the vertical surface. The impact resistance of the window is improved through the first coating layer covering the rear surface and the vertical surface of the base substrate.

A method of manufacturing a window includes: preparing a glass substrate laminate which includes preparing a base substrate, alternately disposing glass substrates and adhesive layers on the base substrate, and disposing a cover substrate on the glass substrates and the adhesive layers alternately disposed; and cutting the glass substrate laminate, where the adhesive layers include a potassium nitrate (KNO.sub.3) particle and an adhesive resin. This method makes it possible to effectively manufacture an ultra-thin glass substrate used for a window.

The glass plate has: a first chamfered section which includes a first apical end having a curved surface shape at the first end surface; and a second chamfered section which includes a second apical end having a curved surface shape at the second end surface, and the first apical end and the second apical end are formed in the same shape.

Process for encapsulation of a microelectronic device comprising the following steps in sequence: supply a support substrate comprising a first principal face on which a microelectronic device is placed, a second principal face, and a lateral face, deposit a bonding layer on the first principal face of the substrate, position an encapsulation cover comprising a first principal face, a second principal face, and a lateral face, on the bonding layer, deposit a lateral protection layer on: the lateral face and the periphery of the second principal face of the support substrate, the lateral face and the periphery of the second principal face of the encapsulation cover, the lateral protection layer delimiting a protected zone, thinning of the second principal face of the support substrate and/or the second principal face of the encapsulation cover outside the protected zone.

Methods for cutting strengthened glass are disclosed. The methods can include using a laser. The strengthened glass can include chemically strengthened, heat strengthened, and heat tempered glass. Strengthened glass with edges showing indicia of a laser cutting process are also disclosed. The strengthened glass can include an electrochromic film.

A heating system includes a conductive layer disposed on a pane surface of a glass pane, a first busbar extending along a first pane edge portion of the glass plane in electrical contact with the conductive layer, and a second busbar extending along a second pane edge portion of the glass plane in electrical contact with the conductive layer. Applying power to the first busbar causes current to travel from the first busbar along the conductive layer to the second busbar, heating the pane surface.

A display panel includes: first and second substrates, each including a display area and a peripheral area in a plan view; and a sealing portion disposed between the first and second substrates. An edge of the display panel includes straight-lined and shaped edges, and the shaped edge includes a curved portion. An edge surface of the first substrate at the straight-lined edge, an edge surface of the second substrate at the straight-lined edge and an edge surface of the sealing portion at the straight-lined edge collectively define a first convex surface, an edge surface of the first substrate at the shaped edge, an edge surface of the second substrate at the shaped edge and an edge surface of the sealing portion at the shaped edge collectively define a second convex surface, and shapes of the first and second convex surfaces are different from each other.

A glazing, and in particular an automotive glazing, includes a laminated glazed element including an exterior glass sheet, an interior glass sheet and a plastic interlayer sheet that is located between the two glass sheets and including at least one light-emitting diode that is located under a peripheral edge of the interlayer face of the exterior glass sheet, wherein the emitting face of the light-emitting diode is located facing at least a part of the edge face of the interior glass sheet and wherein the glazing includes a profiled bead including an exterior lip an interior lip and a body, with the body being located a distance away from, and not in contact with, the emitting face of the light-emitting diode.

A laminated, bent, safety glass panel (30) for architectural or interior uses and a method of manufacturing such panels. The panel comprises a single heat-treated bent glass sheet, fully-tempered or heat-strengthened, forming a substrate (32) encapsulated by at least one thin, chemically-strengthened, glass veneer sheet (38). The veneer sheet (38), an alkali-aluminosilicate or other alkali-containing glass recipe strengthened by ion-exchange treatment, is cold-bent over a polymer interlayer (40) and permanently laminated to form a protective barrier on the heat-treated glass that dampens the explosive release of its internal residual stresses in the event of breakage thereby preventing particles dislodging and subsequent disintegration. The vulnerable perimeter (37) and perforation (45) edges of the veneer sheet (38) are equal in size or inset to the edges of the heat-treated substrate (32) with its deeper robust compressive stresses. Veneers may be laminated to both major substrate surfaces.

To provide a cover member excellent in edge safety, and a display device in which said cover member is used. A cover member which covers a display panel of a display device and which has a front surface that does not face the display panel and a rear surface that faces the display panel, said cover member being a laminate in which a first glass plate constituting said front surface and a second glass plate constituting said rear surface are bonded via an intermediate film interposed therebetween, wherein the first glass plate has a first inside chamfer which is a chamfer on the intermediate film side, and the first inside chamfer and the second glass plate or the intermediate film are bonded by a resin.
