Abstract: An electronic device includes a housing and a display. The housing defines an interior cavity and includes an optically-transmissive housing component. The display is disposed in the interior cavity and is viewable through the optically-transmissive housing component. An optoelectronic component is disposed in the interior cavity. An optical fiber extends between a first end positioned adjacent the optoelectronic component and a second end positioned adjacent the optically-transmissive housing component. The optical fiber defines a non-linear optical path between the first end and the second end. At least a portion of the optical fiber is laterally offset from a lateral edge of the display.

Abstract: An electronic device includes an input device. The input device has an input/output module below or within a cover defining an input surface. The input/output module detects touch and/or force inputs on the input surface, and provides haptic feedback to the cover. In some instances, a haptic device is integrally formed with a wall or structural element of a housing or enclosure of the electronic device.

Abstract: A sapphire structure including an ion-implanted, anti-reflective layer and a method of forming an ion-implanted, anti-reflective layer within a sapphire component is disclosed. The method includes forming an ion-implanted layer in a sapphire material at a first depth, and annealing the sapphire material to a second depth. The second depth may be greater than or equal to the first depth. The ion-implanted layer may have a first index of refraction, and the sapphire material may have a second index of refraction different from the first index of refraction.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with a display. The display may have an array of pixels that form an active area and may have an inactive area that runs along an edge of the active area. An opaque layer may be formed on an inner surface of a display cover layer in the inactive area of the display or may be formed on another transparent layer in the electronic device. An ambient light sensor window may be formed from the opening and may be aligned with color ambient light sensor. The ambient light sensor may have an integrated circuit with photodetectors. Ambient light passing through the ambient light sensor window may be diffused by a light diffuser having one or more light-diffusing layers. Diffused ambient light may be collimated using a light collimator having one or more light-collimating layers such as layers with inwardly facing protrusions.

Abstract: A transparent high-conductivity layer for providing electrostatic feedback to a user of an electronic device. The transparent high-conductivity layer is positioned over a capacitive input sensor and has a resistivity sufficiently high to prevent interference with the capacitive input sensor. As one example, the transparent high-conductivity layer can be formed from a layer of geometrically-separated regions of high-conductivity material. The average distance between geometrically-separated regions can substantially define the resistivity of the transparent high-conductivity layer.

Abstract: An electronic device may have a display that is protected by a transparent cover layer. The transparent cover layer may include a laser-annealed sapphire coating on the outer surface of a glass substrate or other transparent substrate. The sapphire coating may provide the display with a hard, scratch-resistant outer surface. The sapphire coating may be formed by coating a glass substrate with a thin film of amorphous aluminum oxide. The aluminum oxide thin film may be locally heated to transform the amorphous aluminum oxide into alpha-phase aluminum oxide (sapphire). Local heating may be achieved by laser annealing the aluminum oxide coating with a carbon dioxide laser. The laser may produce laser light having a wavelength that is absorbed in the aluminum oxide coating without being absorbed by the glass substrate so that the glass substrate is not damaged during the laser annealing process.
Abstract translation: 电子设备可以具有由透明覆盖层保护的显示器。 透明覆盖层可以在玻璃基板或其他透明基板的外表面上包括激光退火的蓝宝石涂层。 蓝宝石涂层可以为显示器提供硬的耐划伤的外表面。 可以通过用无定形氧化铝薄膜涂覆玻璃基板来形成蓝宝石涂层。 可以局部加热氧化铝薄膜以将无定形氧化铝转变成α相氧化铝（蓝宝石）。 可以通过用二氧化碳激光器对氧化铝涂层进行激光退火来实现局部加热。 激光器可以产生具有在氧化铝涂层中吸收的波长的激光，而不被玻璃基板吸收，使得在激光退火过程中玻璃基板不被损坏。

Abstract: An electronic device may have a display system. The display system may include a waveguide, an input coupler, and a surface relief grating (SRG) structure. The SRG structure may be formed from a high-index material that includes titanium dioxide nanoparticles. To increase the refractive index of the high-index material, the ratio of the size of the nanoparticle core to the size of the capping layer may be increased. The high-index material may also include nanoparticles of different sizes to increase the packing density of the nanoparticles. The SRG structure may be depth modulated in a lateral direction to maximize efficiency. The SRG structure may include slanted ridges covered by an encapsulant. The SRG structure may include a blazed grating with ridges that are covered by a coating and encapsulated by an encapsulant.
