Embodiments of the disclosure relate to a rollable glass sheet configured to reversibly transition between a flat configuration and a bent configuration. The rollable glass sheet includes a first major surface and a second major surface opposite to the first major surface. The first major surface and the second major surface define a thickness of the glass sheet that is 0.4 mm or less. In the flat configuration, the first major surface includes a first surface compressive stress and a first depth of compression, and in the bent configuration, the first major surface includes a curvature. At a radius of curvature of 50 mm, the first major surface includes a second surface compressive stress less than the first compressive stress and a second depth of compression less than the first depth of compression and greater than 11 μm.

A standalone lithium ion-conductive solid electrolyte including a freestanding inorganic vitreous sheet of sulfide-based lithium ion conducting glass is capable of high performance in a lithium metal battery by providing a high degree of lithium ion conductivity while being highly resistant to the initiation and/or propagation of lithium dendrites. Such an electrolyte is also itself manufacturable, and readily adaptable for battery cell and cell component manufacture, in a cost-effective, scalable manner.

Embodiments of thermally and chemically strengthened glass-based articles are disclosed. In one or more embodiments, the glass-based articles may include a first surface and a second surface opposing the first surface defining a thickness (t), a first CS region comprising a concentration of a metal oxide that is both non-zero and varies along a portion of the thickness, and a second CS region being substantially free of the metal oxide of the first CS region, the second CS region extending from the first surface to a depth of compression of about 0.17•t or greater. In one or more embodiments, the first surface is flat to 100 μm total indicator run-out (TIR) along any 50 mm or less profile of the first surface. Methods of strengthening glass sheets are also disclosed, along with consumer electronic products, laminates and vehicles including the same are also disclosed.
