  • Publication number: 20210149460
    Abstract: Example displays having transparent areas for cameras are disclosed. An example display has a first source line including a first portion composed of a first material and a second portion composed of a second material different than the first material. A first gate line includes a first portion composed of a third material and a second portion composed of a fourth material, the fourth material being different than the third material. A second gate line includes a first portion composed of the third material and a second portion composed of the fourth material. The first portion of the source line, the first portion of the first gate line, and the first portion of the second gate line define a non-transparent area of the display. The second portion of the source line, the second portion of the first gate line, and second portion of the second gate line define a transparent area of a display.
