Original Abstract Submitted

A cassette for ultra-thin glass includes a pair of plates spaced apart from and facing each other, and a plurality of supports mounted between the pair of plates and including a plurality of mounting grooves that support sides of sheets of ultra-thin glass. Each of the plurality of mounting grooves includes an inclined portion inclined toward a middle of each of the plurality of mounting grooves, and a straight portion extending from the inclined portion and having a constant width in an axial direction of the plurality of supports. A height of the straight portion in a radial direction of the plurality of supports is equal to or greater than a height of the inclined portion in the radial direction.
