摘要： A hermetically sealed glass package and method for manufacturing the hermetically sealed glass package are described herein using an OLED display as an example. Basically, the hermetically sealed OLED display is manufactured by providing a first substrate plate and a second substrate plate and depositing a frit onto the second substrate plate. OLEDs are deposited on the first substrate plate. An irradiation source (e.g., laser, infrared light) is then used to heat the frit which melts and forms a hermetic seal that connects the first substrate plate to the second substrate plate and also protects the OLEDs. The frit is glass that was doped with at least one transition metal and possibly a CTE lowering filler such that when the irradiation source heats the frit, it softens and forms a bond. This enables the frit to melt and form the hermetic seal while avoiding thermal damage to the OLEDs.

摘要： An apparatus is provided for mechanically attaching an optical fiber to a substrate. The apparatus includes a clamping block formed of malleable material disposed adjacent a substrate. The fiber is disposed adjacent the clamping block and a securing member such as a fastener or spring is used to secure the fiber to the clamping block and substrate. The frictional forces between the fiber and the clamping block eliminate movement of the fiber relative to the substrate.

摘要： A method for splicing optical fibers is disclosed. The fibers are held by ferrules with a softening temperature at least 30° C. below that of the lower of the glass transition temperatures of the fibers. The ends of the fibers are actively aligned and brought into contact, then energy is applied to fuse the ferrules together, maintaining the alignment of the ends of the fibers. The ferrules may be a low-melting inorganic glass, such as a lead bismuth borosilicate glass. The method and ferrules of the present invention are especially useful in splicing fibers of dissimilar thermomechanical properties.
