ABSTRACT:
The talk will discuss specific equipment aspects that need to be considered for the R2R handling of flexible glass, both in general and by taking the example of a roll-to-roll lab coating system, which has been designed specifically for handling flexible glass.
Furthermore, it will be shown how different processes such as R2R sputtering can be used for potential flexible glass applications in flexible electronics, architecture, and energy conversion devices.
