Abstract
Abstract This invention is concerned with the fabrication of flat panel display devices wherein a film of large crystal polysilicon is grown on a substrate. More particularly, the present invention is drawn to such devices wherein the substrate is prepared from a strontium aluminosilicate glass consisting essentially, in mole percent, of about 9-12% SrO, 9-12% Al 2 O 3 , and 77-82% SiO 2 .

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
110 words
A clear, transparent, homogeneous strontium aluminosilicate glass capable of being melted at temperatures no higher than about 1800° C. which exhibits an annealing point greater than 875° C., a linear coefficient of thermal expansion over the temperature range of 25°-300° C. of about 30-40×10 -7 /°C., a liquidus temperature not exceeding about 1400° C., and a liquidus viscosity of at least 1×10 5 poises, said glass being essentially free from alkali metal oxide, MgO, CaO, ZnO, La 2 O 3 , and MnO, and consisting essentially, expressed in terms of mole percent on the oxide basis, of about 9-12% SrO, 9-12% Al 2 O 3 , 77-82% SiO 2 .
