Corning Incorporated (NYSE: GLW) today announced its plans for
the Society for Information Display’s (SID) Display Week in Boston
June 3-8. The Corning booth #123 will showcase the critical role of
highly engineered specialty glass in addressing emerging display
trends including: increased functionality from smaller, thinner,
and lighter form factors; touch technology; and a more-diverse set
of interconnected devices with higher performance and new
application spaces. Corning will also make key announcements
regarding its ultra-slim flexible glass (June 4) and EAGLE XG® Slim
line of substrates (June 5).

“As handset, tablet, and notebook device manufacturers go
thinner, Corning’s latest innovations in EAGLE XG Slim and
ultra-slim flexible glass are extraordinarily well-positioned to
meet these challenges and enable broader touch technology
penetration,” said Dr. Peter Bocko, chief technology officer for
Corning Glass Technologies.
The booth will feature product samples using both EAGLE XG Slim
and ultra-slim flexible glass as well as Corning® Gorilla® Glass 2,
the next generation of the popular, damage-resistant cover glass
for consumer electronic devices. A multi-touch 82-inch display
showcasing Corning Gorilla Glass for large applications will also
be on hand. Those interested in a live demonstration of Gorilla
Glass 2 can visit the booth for more information on demo times.
“Corning Gorilla Glass continues to enjoy excellent market
acceptance across mobile device industries. It remains the cover
glass of choice, currently on more than 750 products manufactured
by 33 major brands, totaling more than 750 million devices
worldwide,” said James R. Steiner, senior vice president and
general manager, Corning Specialty Materials.
In celebration of SID’s 50th anniversary and Corning’s
longstanding relationship with SID, Corning Gorilla Glass will
sponsor an event at the Boston Museum of Science on Wednesday, June
6 at 7 p.m. Tickets are $50 per person and can be purchased at the
SID Registration Desk during Display Week.
In addition, Display Week attendees can engage with Corning
technology experts in the booth and at other events throughout the
conference.
Dr. Bocko, one of the foremost glass experts in the display
industry, will deliver the keynote at the SID Investor Conference
on June 4. He will discuss the latest advances in displays and
emerging trends in the industry. Dr. Bocko will also present a
technical paper – “The Role of Glass in Advanced Displays” – on
Friday, June 8. John Bayne, Jr., vice president and general manager
of high performance displays, will deliver a keynote presentation
at the IMS Business Conference at SID on June 5. He will focus on
the industry’s current challenges and how glassmakers are
responding with new and enhanced compositions, including Corning
Lotus™ Glass, optimized for OLED and next-generation LCD
devices.
Several other Corning experts will be delivering technical
presentations throughout the conference. Dr. Dipak Chowdhury,
division vice president and program director of flexible
substrates, will deliver remarks regarding ultra-slim flexible
glass at the Exhibitor Forum on June 5 at 2 p.m. in Exhibit Hall B.
Dr. Sean Garner, senior scientist, will also speak about ultra-slim
flexible glass at 9 a.m. on June 6 at the flexible display
manufacturing session.
“Display Week comes at just the right time,” said Bocko. “As the
industry undergoes changes and faces obstacles, Corning looks
forward to showcasing our innovative glasses and how each addresses
tough technological challenges, to meet today’s – and tomorrow’s –
most-stringent manufacturing requirements.”
