Corning is the worldwide leading supplier of Active Matrix Liquid Crystal Display (AMLCD) glass substrates used in Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Displays (TFT-LCD) for notebook computers, desktop LCD monitors, LCD televisions and portable internet devices. With glass melting and finishing facilities in the U.S., Japan, Korea, and Taiwan, Corning’s Display Technologies is well positioned to supply customers worldwide with the highest quality, specialty flat glass available. Corning 7059 was the company's first generation fusion-formed product. During the 1980s, 7059 borosilicate sheet glass enabled the development of amorphous silicon AMLCD technology. Today, that technology is in full-scale production around the world, resulting in an incredible variety of consumer, commercial and entertainment products. Corning 1737, an aluminosilicate glass, represents the second generation of fusion-formed glass for AMLCDs. Introduced in 1994, Corning 1737 glass offered customers superior performance attributes and quickly replaced 7059 as the industry standard. For years, Corning 1737 has remained the leading non-alkaline AMLCD glass substrate that all others are measured against worldwide. Today, Corning is setting a new standard with EAGLE2000™ Glass the innovative premium substrate that raises the bar for the industry as a lightweight, low expansion glass for TFT-LCDs. EAGLE2000™ is Corning's third generation of fusion-formed glass. The properties of the award winning EAGLE2000™ Glass enables display manufacturers to produce lighter, larger, thinner and higher resolution displays more affordably. PC and electronics manufacturers alike can push the size and weight limits of their LCD products like never before. Corning is Shaping the Display Glass Industry Corning EAGLE2000™ receives the Advanced Display Product of the Year award. (July 17, 2001) Glass compositions that meet the most demanding requirements of leading edge TFT-LCD manufacturers. Development of Fusion-forming technology that produces glass substrates with flawless surfaces, requiring no secondary polishing prior to entering the TFT-LCD manufacturing process. Thinner glass substrates that meet the notebook computer industry’s requirements for lighter weight displays. Larger AMLCD glass substrates to meet the growing demand of the PC industry for TFT-LCD desktop monitors. Keeping pace with the LCD industry through continuous capacity expansions around the world. corning.com
