ELECTRONIC DEVICES HAVING REDUCED SUSCEPTIBILITY TO NEWTON RINGS, AND/OR METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME

摘要

Certain example embodiments relate to electronic devices (e.g., LCD or other display devices) having reduced susceptibility to Newton Rings, and/or methods of making the same. In certain example embodiments, the electronic device includes at least first and second glass substrates. An Anti-Newton Ring (ANR) / antireflective (AR) coating is provided on the second and/or third surface of the electronic device (e.g., on an inner surface of the cover glass and/or on an outer surface of the color filter substrate of an LCD device) so as to help reduce the formation of Newton Rings caused by the air pockets that surround one or more points of unintentional glass deformation. This may be made possible in certain example embodiments because the ANR coating is optically matched to reduce reflections of light between the first and second substrates.
