  • Patent number: 10691921
    Abstract: A display device comprises a display panel configured to display an image. A fingerprint sensor is under the display panel and is configured to sense a fingerprint. An impact mitigating layer partially surrounds the fingerprint sensor and is configured to absorb impacts or pressure to the display device. A shielding layer is between the display panel and the fingerprint sensor and the impact mitigating layer. The shielding layer blocks at least one of heat, electromagnetic interference, or light.

  • Patent number: 10402019
    Abstract: Provided is a display device that includes a display panel defined with an active area displaying an image and an inactive area outside the active area, the display panel including a substrate having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface; a plurality of pixels on the first surface of the substrate in the active area, each pixel including a pixel drive circuit; a transparent conductive layer on the second surface of the substrate covering the active area and a part of the inactive area; and a metal pattern on the second surface of the substrate in the inactive area, the metal pattern electrically connected to the transparent conductive layer, receiving an electrical signal and having a lower resistance than the transparent conductive layer, wherein the metal pattern serves as a conductive path to reduce a potential difference with respect to the electrical signal in an entire area of the transparent conductive layer compared to a display device without the metal pattern.

  • Patent number: 10359871
    Abstract: Provided is a display panel including a loop-shaped conductive path which is manufactured by performing a conductive ink jetting process and a high-degree vacuum removal process to effectively vaporizing a solvent in a conductive ink line at lower temperature than the boiling point at atmospheric pressure of the solvent. The conductive path manufactured as such does not allow a stain or a trace, such as a pull-back region, to be left around the conductive path. Thus, it is possible to obtain the loop-shaped conductive path having an initially intended design without being damaged during a process.
