Abstract: A composite enclosure component for an electronic device is disclosed. The composite enclosure component is formed at least in part from a composite material that includes a porous ceramic structure at least partially embedded in a glass-based matrix. The glass-based matrix includes one or more sets of nanoparticles that impart a color to the composite enclosure component.

Abstract: A composite enclosure component for an electronic device is disclosed. The composite enclosure component may include metallic nanoparticles, non-metallic nanoparticles, or a combination of these. The nanoparticles of the composite enclosure component may provide a hue, enhanced mechanical properties, or both.

Abstract: A structurally colored enclosure component for an electronic device is disclosed. The structurally colored enclosure component may be a cover member for the electronic device and in some cases may display iridescence. A surface region of the enclosure component may include a modified glass-based material and the structural color of the enclosure component may be due at least in part to the surface region.

Abstract: Electronic devices including a textured component such as a cover member positioned over one or more components of the electronic device. Different surface regions of the textured component may be textured differently in order to provide optical contrast. For example, differently textured surface regions may differ in gloss, translucency, or both. In some cases the cover member defines a protruding feature and a surface region of the protruding feature is textured differently than an adjacent surface region.

Abstract: Textured cover assemblies for electronic devices are disclosed. The textured cover assemblies may provide a combination of optical and tactile properties to the electronic devices. In some cases, a textured cover assembly may be provided over decorative coating.

Abstract: The disclosure provides textured glass components as well as electronic device cover assemblies and enclosures which include the textured glass components. In some cases, a protruding portion of the glass component includes a textured region provided over a camera assembly of the electronic device. One or more openings may be provided in the textured region. The textured region may be configured to provide a translucent or hazy appearance to the electronic device while providing a desirable “feel” to the electronic device and level of cleanability.

Abstract: A ceramic composite article includes a substrate including a matrix of ceramic material defining a network of interstitial regions and a transparent material occupying at least some of the interstitial regions of the substrate. The transparent material can have a melting point lower than a melting point of the ceramic material. The matrix of ceramic material can be formed by a 3D printing process.

Abstract: A disclosed method of forming a ceramic article includes forming a pre-ceramic polymer article within a mold tool, and performing a first pyrolizing step on the initial pre-ceramic polymer article to form a ceramic article. The method further includes performing at least one pre-heat treatment polymer infiltration and pyrolizing (PIP) cycle on the ceramic article and an initial heat treatment cycle of the ceramic article after the at least one pre-heat treatment PIP cycle. Subsequent PIP cycles and heat treatment cycles are performed in combination to form a ceramic article including a desired density.
