Abstract
Cholesteric liquid crystal (ChLC) bi-stable displays were fabricated
on 100
$\mu$
m
thick flexible glass front- and backplane substrates. The flexible glass substrates
were
${{250
mm}}\times{{300 mm}}$
in size, and
the displays were fabricated using Gen2 equipment by temporarily attaching
the substrates to processing carriers. No significant fabrication issues were
encountered that would limit process optimization of these devices. Benefits
of the flexible glass substrates observed compared to previously evaluated
polymer film substrates include both thermal capability and dimensional stability.
The fabricated flexible glass ChLC displays included both 5-inch color and
10.4-inch monochrome devices with resolutions of 80 ppi and 40 ppi, respectively.
The displays had a total thickness of 204
$\mu$
m.
