Flat panel displays having tiles and visually imperceptible gaps therebetween

摘要

The present invention features methods for assembling arrays of AMLCD tiles into tiled, flat-panel displays having visually imperceptible seams between the tiles. Flowable, polymeric adhesive layers are used between a back substrate, various optical components such as masks and polarizers, the tiles, and a front cover plate. Several unique techniques for establishing and maintaining tile-to-tile registration during assembly of the tiled, flat-panel display are presented.
