Second-generation composition features host of new
capabilities
CORNING, N.Y., May 16,
2013 - Corning Incorporated (NYSE: GLW) today
announced the commercial launch of Corning Lotus(TM) XT
Glass, a second-generation glass substrate specially formulated for
high-performance displays. The company will feature its latest
specialty glass innovation - alongside its other advanced glass
technologies - in its booth (#801) at the Society for Information
Display's (SID) Display Week in Vancouver, British Columbia, May 21
- 23.
Lotus XT Glass features best-in-class total pitch
variation, which is integral to efficient panel manufacturing.
Essentially, total pitch - usually measured in microns or parts per
million (ppm) - is the distance features move during panel
processing.
"If you can predict the amount the glass shifts,
then you can account for this movement. Deviation - or variation -
from this predictable movement can ultimately result in yield
loss," said John P. Bayne, vice president and general manager,
Corning High Performance Displays. "Lotus XT Glass is designed to
have improved thermal and dimensional stability over higher
temperatures, generating higher yields for our customers."
The Corning Lotus Glass platform enables organic
light-emitting diode (OLED) displays and liquid crystal displays
(LCD) that use either low-temperature poly-silicon (LTPS) or oxide
thin-film transistor (TFT) backplanes. The result is an
energy-efficient, immersive display device that features high
resolution, fast response times, and bright picture quality.
In addition to Lotus XT Glass, the Corning booth
will feature each of its advanced glass technologies, including:
Corning EAGLE XG® Slim for a-Si displays; Corning® Willow(TM)
Glass, the company's ultra-slim, flexible glass; and Corning®
Gorilla® Glass 3 with Native Damage Resistance(TM). Corning
experts will provide daily demonstrations of Gorilla Glass 3, the
industry-leading, damage-resistant cover glass. Attendees
should consult booth staff for exact times.
Display Week attendees will also have the
opportunity to hear several of Corning's technology experts deliver
presentations at the conference.
"Display Week is a time to take stock of the
industry and its future," Bayne noted. "The industry is
changing, and Corning believes each of its innovative glasses helps
solve tough technological challenges - advancing displays even
further."
