Abstract: A display may have a pixel array such as a liquid crystal pixel array. The pixel array may be illuminated with backlight illumination from a direct-lit backlight unit. The backlight unit may include an array of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on a printed circuit board. The display may have a notch to accommodate an input-output component. Reflective layers may be included in the notch. The backlight may include a color conversion layer with a property that varies as a function of position. The light-emitting diodes may be covered by a slab of encapsulant with recesses in an upper surface.

Abstract: A system for processing plastic waste may include a feed line, a feed fractionator, a hydrotreater, a catalytic reforming unit, a heavy oil cracker, and a steam cracker. A pyrolyzed plastics feed is separated into light, medium, and heavy hydrocarbon streams. The hydrotreater removes sulfur, and the catalytic reforming unit produces a circular aromatic-rich stream. The heavy oil cracker generates cracked streams. The steam cracker produces a circular olefin stream from a cracked stream. A system for processing plastic waste may include the feed line, the feed fractionator, the hydrotreater, a medium hydrocarbon fractionator, the catalytic reforming unit, a full-range reforming unit, the heavy oil cracker, and the steam cracker. The medium hydrocarbon fractionator produces two hydrocarbon streams. The full-range naphtha reforming unit produces a second circular aromatic-rich stream.

Abstract: An electronic device, a communication device, and a method enhance thermal energy spreading via thermal spreader layer(s) of a flexible layer assembly extending through a hinge coupling first and second device housings of a configurable housing assembly. The thermal spreader layer is positioned on a surface of a flexible circuit of the flexible layer assembly. The thermal spreader layer has one end thermally coupled to a first structure within the first device housing and another end thermally coupled to a second structure within the second device housing to transfer thermal energy between the first and the second structures. The flexible layer assembly deforms within one or both of a first and second chamber respectively of the first and second device housings when the first and second device housings pivot about the hinge from a closed position to an axially displaced open position.
