  • Publication number: 20240208851
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to forming methods, systems, apparatuses and resulting displays that represent improvements in various key areas. The disclosed methods, systems and apparatuses can include a backing configured to support the glass substrate. In one embodiment, the backing can comprise a plurality of linkages. The one or more of the plurality of linkages are selectively moveable to interface with and correspond to a radius of curvature of the curved portion of the glass substrate However, other embodiments contemplate segments, mesh or other construction for the backing.

  • Publication number: 20210280817
    Abstract: In some embodiments, an apparatus comprises at least one module. Each module comprises a first substrate, and a second substrate disposed over the first substrate. The module has a periphery. The module includes an array of pixels disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, and inside the periphery. Each pixel has an active area and an inactive area. The array of pixels a first intra-modular separation distance between the active area of adjacent pixels in a first direction. A laser weld hermetically seals the first substrate to the second substrate along a portion of the periphery. The laser weld is disposed between the active area of the pixels and the periphery. The distance between the active area of the pixels and the periphery in the first direction is not more than 50% of the first intra-modular separation distance. Methods of making the apparatus are also described.

  • Publication number: 20190081218
    Abstract: A method of dispensing quantum dot containing material in a well, the method comprising dispensing quantum dot material in a well using an ink jet, wherein the ink jet is operated with an Ohnesorge (Oh) number between 0.1 and 1 and with a Weber number of between 4 and 501.6*Oh0.4. Other methods include dispensing quantum dot containing material in a well, the method comprising dispensing quantum dot material in a well using an ink jet, immobilizing the dispensed quantum dot material by drying or curing, repeating these steps an integer N number of times until a predetermined thickness is obtained.
