When on flat glass elements an anti-corrosion agent and a separation agent, containing a powdery anti-corrosion agent and a powdery separation agent, is applied with the anti-corrosion agent and the separation agent being jointly applied on at least one side of the flat glass elements, the partial quantities of the powdery separation agent and the powdery anti-corrosion agent can be dosed according to requirement without causing an excess of separation agent or a shortage of anti-corrosion agent by holding ready and dosing the said anti-corrosion agent and separation agent independently from each other and by blending them together only after dosing.

The present invention includes a method of making a slotted waveguide antenna structure with a matched ground plane comprising: forming in a photosensitive glass substrate a coaxial-to-coplanar waveguide (CPW) section connected to a power divider, an emission cavity area for the slotted antenna and one or more vias; depositing a metal ground plane to a first surface of the photosensitive glass substrate; depositing a copper layer on the photosensitive glass substrate with a pattern of slots that form a slot antenna above the emission cavity; forming one or more glass pillars in the emission cavity under the slot antenna; etching away the photosensitive glass in the emission cavity while retaining the one or more glass pillars; connecting a micro coaxial connector to the coaxial-to-coplanar waveguide (CPW) section; and one or more solder bumps at the vias that connect to the ground plane, to form a slotted antenna.

A privacy glazing structure may include an electrically controllable optically active material, such as a liquid crystal material, sandwiched between a flexible substrate and a rigid substrate. The flexible substrate and the rigid substrate may each have a conductive layer deposited on the surface facing the optically active material. The flexible substrate may be bonded about its perimeter to the rigid substrate and may be sufficiently flexible to conform to non-planarity of the rigid substrate. As a result, the flexible substrate may adopt the surface contour of the rigid substrate to maintain a uniform thickness of optically active material between the flexible substrate and the rigid substrate.

A process for manufacturing a laminated glazing that includes at least a first glass sheet and a second glass sheet, includes printing a face of the first glass sheet intended to be oriented toward the second glass sheet with a liquid enamel which is dried at a temperature not exceeding 400° C., then bending the first and second glass sheets together in contact with one another in their relative position of destination in the laminated glazing, by heating at a softening temperature of the glass, wherein the liquid enamel is an aqueous silicate paint including a refractory powder of pigments and a silicate binder powder, in the absence of glass frit, and wherein a weight ratio of pigments to silicates is greater than 1.

A method of making a display area and a glass tile as well as a display area that includes the glass tile.
