Display with reduced border

摘要

An electronic device may be provided with a display such as a liquid crystal display having upper and lower polarizer layers, a color filter layer, a liquid crystal layer, and a thin-film transistor layer. The display may have backlight structures that include a light guide plate, a reflector, and optical films. An opaque masking layer may be formed in a strip that runs along a peripheral edge of the lower polarizer in the display. The lower polarizer and the optical films may be separated by an air gap. The uppermost optical film may be a brightness enhancing film. The lower polarizer may be a matte polarizer layer, a polarizer film attached to an achromatic polarizing compensating film, or a matte polarizer that is attached to an achromatic polarizing compensating film coated with a matte coating.

主权项

1. A display, comprising:
a thin-film transistor layer; a polarizer layer on the thin-film transistor layer, wherein the polarizer layer has a lower surface; and a strip of opaque masking material that runs along a peripheral border region of the lower surface of the polarizer layer, wherein the polarizer layer separates the opaque masking material from the thin-film transistor layer.
