Abstract:
A glass panel is provided having a glass structure with an exterior surface and an interior surface, the glass structure having at least one glass sheet with a thickness ranging from about 0.5 mm to about 2.0 mm and a backing frame positioned adjacent the glass structure and situated along the perimeter of the interior surface of the glass structure. The glass panel further includes a polymer layer positioned on the interior surface and intermediate the glass structure and backing frame to adhere the glass structure together with the backing frame an array of acoustic exciters positioned on the glass structure, the array of acoustic exciters providing excitation energy to or receiving excitation energy from the glass structure where frequency response of the panel can be a function of the geometry of the glass structure and the position of the acoustic exciters.
Abstract:
Example methods of manufacturing a glass mirror apparatus includes the step of providing a chemically strengthened glass sheet with a thickness of less than or equal to about 2 mm. The method further includes the step of applying a reflective layer to the second major surface of the glass sheet to provide a first glass mirror. In further examples, a glass mirror apparatus comprises a chemically strengthened glass sheet with a thickness of less than or equal to about 2 mm. A reflective layer applied to the second major surface of the glass sheet to provide a first glass mirror.
