A method of fabricating a glass member for a display device includes: preparing a glass substrate including a first surface, a second surface facing the first surface, and a side surface connecting the first surface to the second surface; forming a protection layer on the side surface to cover a portion of the side surface; and etching a portion of the glass substrate exposed by the protection layer.

A window with low frictive compositions and methods of making the same. The low frictive composition is applied to top portion of at least one glass bump contacting an opposing pane in a window. The low frictive composition may include an inorganic powder and a binder. The inorganic powder includes disulfide, molybdenum disulfide, tungsten diselenide, and molybdenum diselenide. The binder includes silsesquioxanes and alkali silicates.

A sealed article and methods of making the same. The sealed article includes a first and second glass pane. The first and second glass panes include inner surfaces opposite outer surfaces and at least one outer edge. The second glass pane is spaced apart from and positioned substantially parallel to the first glass pane with a low emissivity layer there between. An seal is formed between the first and second glass panes contiguous the low emissivity layer.

Vacuum ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 200 nm or less is applied on the joining surfaces of first and second workpieces made from a crystal substrate and a glass substrate, or a glass substrate and a glass substrate from a light irradiation unit. The workpieces are conveyed to a workpiece cleaning and laminating mechanism by a conveyance mechanism, the joining surfaces are subjected to mega-sonic cleaning as needed, and the workpieces are aligned with the joining surfaces thereof facing each other, and laminated such that the joining surfaces are in contact with each other. After being laminated, the laminated workpieces are conveyed to a workpiece heating mechanism and heated to increase the workpiece temperature to a predetermined temperature, and this temperature is maintained until joining is completed. The laminated workpieces are brought into a thermally expanded state upon heating, and are joined in this state.

A copper dopant delivery powder comprising a fused silica powder and a Cu.sub.2S powder. A method of making the copper dopant delivery powder. A method of making a copper-doped glass comprising placing a target glass in a container, packing a composite SiO.CuS dopant powder around the target glass and heating the container and SiO.CuS dopant powder to a temperature of between 800 C. and 1150 C. A copper-doped glass comprising a glass comprising copper-doping wherein the copper-doped glass was formed by covering the glass with a fused silica powder and a Cu.sub.2S powder, wherein the fused silica powder and the Cu.sub.2S powder are mixed in varying ratios of Cu.sub.2S to silica represented by the formula (SiO.sub.2).sub.(1-x)(Cu.sub.2S).sub.x and heating to a temperature of between 800 C. and 1150 C.

A method for continuous production of photo-sensitive glass bodies, glass bodies, and structured glass articles are provided. The glass bodies include a glass having Si.sup.4+, at least one crystal-agonist, at least one crystal-antagonist, and at least one pair of nucleating agents. The glass may be used in a method for structuring of glass. The glass bodies may be structured and/or unstructured and used in different applications such as in components or as components in micro-technology, in micro-reaction-technology, in electronic packaging, for micro-fluidic components, in or as FED spacer, for bio-technology (for example titer plates), as interposer, and in or as three-dimensional structurable antennae.

A method for forming a via in a glass article includes forming one or more cavities within a glass substrate by exposing the glass substrate to an etchant, the glass substrate including a glass cladding layer and a glass central core layer, where the glass cladding layer has an etch rate in the etchant that is different than an etch rate of the glass central core layer, and where the one or more cavities extend through the glass central core layer terminating at the glass cladding layer, depositing a metallic material within the one or more cavities, and removing the glass cladding layer.

A method of treating a glass cylinder for a piston-cylinder arrangement for reducing the friction of a piston on an inner cylinder wall of the glass cylinder includes: elevating surface energy of glass of an interior bounded by the inner cylinder wall and hence lowering a contact angle of the glass with water. The contact angle is lowered by: a gas discharge that acts on the glass at the inner cylinder wall and is generated by an electric or electromagnetic field; or the action of ozone on the glass surface. The glass with the lowered contact angle is contacted with water to form a water film on the contacted glass.

An object is to develop a measurement method, and a measurement substrate, for measuring SPF or other value in a single measurement, instead of having to measure it on many substrates as has been the case to date. As a solution, a substrate for UV transmittance evaluation, including a base material that allows UV rays in a range of 290 to 400 nm to transmit through, and a layer provided on one side thereof that contains at least one type of compound other than cellulose triacetate that has a sugar skeleton but is not a salt, is provided.

Embodiments are related to scalable surface structure (e.g., a well or other structure) formation in a substrate and, more particularly, to systems and methods for forming displays using a photo-machinable material layer.
