Fabrication method of strengthened glass and fabrication method of display device

1. A method of fabricating a display device, the method comprising:

providing strengthened glass;

providing a display panel; and

bending the strengthened glass and the display panel;

wherein the providing of the strengthened glass comprises:

strengthening a glass substrate to form a strengthened glass substrate; and

slimming a first surface of the strengthened glass substrate to reduce a thickness of the strengthened glass substrate and not slimming a second surface of the strengthened glass substrate opposite to the first surface, or slimming the first surface by a greater extent than the second surface,

wherein the providing the display panel comprises providing the display panel to be closer to the first surface than the second surface,

wherein the strengthening equally increases the compressive stresses of the first and second surfaces of the strengthened glass substrate and the slimming differentially reduces the compressive stresses of the first and second surfaces of the strengthened glass substrate,

wherein, after the slimming the strengthened glass substrate, the first surface has a compressive stress of about 100 MPa to about 700 MPa and the second surface has a compressive stress of about 700 MPa to about 1,000 MPa, and the compressive stress of the second surface is greater than the compressive stress of the first surface,

wherein, the display panel is an organic light emitting display panel or a liquid crystal display panel,

wherein, in the bending, the first surface has a first radius of curvature, and the second surface has a second radius of curvature greater than the first radius of curvature, and

wherein, in the bending, a distance along a first direction between portions of the first surface bent to face each other is greater than a distance along the first direction between portions of the display panel bent to face each other, and

wherein the first direction is a thickness direction of each of the strengthened glass and the display panel.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising providing a touch screen panel to be closer to the first surface than the second surface, and

wherein the display panel is provided between the strengthened glass and the touch screen panel.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the bending the strengthened glass and the display panel comprises bending the strengthened glass, the display panel, and the touch screen panel.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the slimming is performed by mechanical polishing or chemical polishing.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the strengthening is performed by a chemical strengthening method.
