  2. Microscope slide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microscope_slide

    Specimens are often held into place using the smaller glass cover slips. The main function of the cover slip is to keep solid specimens pressed flat, and liquid samples shaped into a flat layer of even thickness. This is necessary because high-resolution microscopes have a very narrow region within which they focus.

  3. Watch glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watch_glass

    A watch glass is a circular concave piece of glass used in chemistry as a surface to evaporate a liquid, to hold solids while being weighed, for heating a small amount of substance, and as a cover for a beaker. When used to cover beakers, the purpose is generally to prevent dust or other particles from entering the beaker; the watch glass does ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_bonding

    Optical bonding is the use of an optical-grade adhesive to glue a glass to the top surface of a display. The main goal of optical bonding is to improve the display performance under outdoor environments. This method eliminates the air gap between the cover glass and the display. [2]

    A Nokia N8 with a Gorilla Glass screen. Gorilla Glass, developed and manufactured by Corning, is a brand of chemically strengthened glass now in its ninth generation. Designed to be thin, light, and damage-resistant, its surface strength and crack-resistance are achieved through immersion in a hot potassium-salt ion-exchange bath.

    Glass evaporating dishes, such as watch glasses, are primarily used as an evaporating surface (though they may be used to cover a beaker.) The Petri dish is a flat dish filled with a nutritious gelatin that allows for microorganisms to quickly grow, its named after its inventor Julius Petri in the 1880s.

    Cover lens bonding To fill the air gap in touch panel sensors that use a cover lens (such as clear plastic PMMA) and the glass touch panel sensor. Direct bonding To achieve the highest amount of contrast, such as in an outdoor viewing application, it is necessary to "directly bond" the cover lens to the LCD module.

  9. Beaker (laboratory equipment) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaker_(laboratory_equipment)

    The presence of a spout means that the beaker cannot have a lid. However, when in use, beakers may be covered by a watch glass to prevent contamination or loss of the contents, but allowing venting via the spout. Alternatively, a beaker may be covered with another larger beaker that has been inverted, though a watch glass is preferable.
