Electro-optic display with edge seal

摘要

An electro-optic display (100) comprises a backplane (102); an electro-optic layer (112) adjacent the backplane (102), the electro-optic layer (112) being smaller than the backplane (102) so as to leave a peripheral portion of the backplane extending beyond the edges of the electro-optic layer (112); and a protective layer (118) disposed on the opposed side of the electro-optic layer (112) from the backplane (102), a peripheral portion of the protective layer (118) extending beyond the edges of the electro-optic layer and being adhered (at 120) to the backplane (102).
