Hi all,
I’ve recently been given a bunch of old active matrix LCD displays that were removed from equipment for failure of one kind or another.
After separating the diffusers and polarizing layers which will no doubt come in handy for one project or another I’ve come to the bare glass layers.
I’d like to separate the layers however still maintain the Indium Tin coating so I can experiment with transparent conductors. At the very least I’d have some thin glass to play with.
Presumably they’re glued together with some sort of special adhesive. Does anyone know how to separate the glass layers of an LCD display without damaging the conductive coating? Even better the shadow mask/filter with all it’s little holes which will be cool with a laser.
I doubt a solvent will help, as it won’t migrate under the glass to dissolve the adhesive…will heating the display in an oven damage the coating…what sort of temperature will work??
