COLD-FORM GLASS LAMINATION TO A DISPLAY
In some embodiments, a process comprises fixing a first portion of a flexible glass substrate into a first fixed shape with a first rigid support structure and attaching a first display to the first portion of the flexible glass substrate or to the first rigid support structure. After fixing the first portion and attaching the first display, and while maintaining the first fixed shape of the first portion of the flexible glass substrate and the attached first display, cold-forming a second portion of the flexible glass substrate to a second fixed shape and fixing the second portion of the flexible glass substrate into the second fixed shape with a second rigid support structure.

METHOD OF BONDING SUBSTRATES AND SEPARATING A PORTION OF THE BONDED SUBSTRATES THROUGH THE BOND, SUCH AS TO MANUFACTURE AN ARRAY OF LIQUID LENSES AND SEPARATE THE ARRAY INTO INDIVIDUAL LIQUID LENSES
A method of forming a bond between substrates and manipulating the bond comprises: emitting a first laser energy onto a strip of an absorption material disposed between a first substrate and a second substrate until the strip diffuses into the first substrate and the second substrate resulting in workpiece with a bond between the first substrate and the second substrate; emitting a second laser energy through the workpiece at the bond to create a fault line through the bond, the first substrate, and the second substrate, the second laser energy provided by an approximated Bessel beam, the approximated Bessel beam incident upon the bond having a diameter that is greater than a width of the bond; and repeating emitting the second laser energy step along a length of the bond to create a series of fault lines through the bond, the series of fault lines forming a contour.
GLASS LAMINATE WITH BURIED STRESS SPIKES TO ARREST CRACKS AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME
A laminated glass article comprises a core layer comprising a core glass composition, and a cladding layer directly adjacent to the core layer and comprising a clad glass composition. A stress of the cladding layer increases with increasing distance from an outer surface of the cladding layer from a compressive stress to a tensile stress, transitions to a compressive stress as a step-change at an interface region between the core layer and the cladding layer, and increases with increasing distance from the interface region to a center of the core layer from the compressive stress to a tensile stress.

Glass sheet composite, and diaphragm
A glass sheet composite includes a first glass sheet, a second sheet disposed opposite the first glass sheet, and a liquid layer formed by sealing up a liquid between the first glass sheet and the second sheet, in which the glass sheet composite has a plurality of vibration areas that are independent of each other in a plan view. The glass sheet composite is a diaphragm including at least one vibrator disposed on one side or both sides of the glass sheet composite. The glass sheet composite enables independent vibration at each of the vibration areas, and enables not only stereophonic or multiphonic reproduction but also local reproduction to be performed along with images. Since the diaphragm includes a vibrator, this diaphragm is excellent in sound reproduction.

MULTI-LAYER INSULATED GLASS UNIT COMPRISING A LOW CTE GLASS LAYER
An insulated glass unit is described and includes at least a first glass layer, a second glass layer and a third glass layer disposed therebetween. The third glass layer is separated from the first glass layer and the second glass layer by first and second sealed gap spaces. The third glass layer has a low CTE as compared to the CTE of the first and/or second glass layers. In some instances, the third glass layer has a CTE of less than 70×10.sup.−7/° C. over a temperature range of 0-300° C.
