    Abstract: An electronic device may have a liquid crystal display with backlight structures. The backlight structures may produce backlight that passes through an array of display pixels. The display pixels may include electrode structures and thin-film transistor structures for controlling electric fields in a layer of liquid crystal material. The liquid crystal material may be formed between an outer display layer and an inner display layer. The inner display layer may be interposed between the backlight structures and the liquid crystal material. Thin-film transistor structures, electrodes, and conductive interconnection lines may be deposited in a layer on the inner surface of the outer display layer. A layer of color filter elements may be used to provide the display with color pixels. The color filter elements may be formed on top of the thin-film transistor layer or on a separate color filter array substrate such as the inner display layer.

    Abstract: An electronic device (10), comprising a display (14) that includes a polarizer (62) with an opening, a sleeve (146) that passes through the opening, and a camera (22) having lens structures (126) that are at least partly contained within the sleeve (146). The display (14) comprises a thin-film-transistor layer (52) and a color filter layer (60). The electronic device (10) further comprises a layer of glass (180) that is attached to the display (14), wherein the layer of glass (180) has an opening through which the lens structures (126) and the sleeve (146) pass. T he color filter layer (60) and the thin-film-transistor layers (52) have respective edges and wherein the edge of the color filter layer (60) is recessed with respect to the edge of the thin-film-transistor layer (52) to form a ledge (184) on which the layer of glass (180) is mounted.

    Abstract: An electronic device comprises a display including a polariser 62 (polarising layer), the polariser having an opening or aperture 144 there through; a sleeve (sheath) 146 that passes through the opening; and a camera 22 having lens structures 126 that are at least partially contained within the sleeve. The camera is integrated into the electronic device. The display may further comprise a thin-film-transistor (TFT) layer 52, a colour filter layer 60, and a layer of glass 180 that also has an opening 182 through which the sleeve and lens pass (i.e. opening 182 is aligned with opening 144). The layer of glass may be an elongated strip that is mounted onto a ledge or shelf 184, the ledge being formed on top of the TFT layer at a portion (a recess) where the colour filter is not located. The layer of glass may be inserted within a notch in the colour filter layer and TFT layer.

    Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure A camera may be mounted under a display in an electronic device. The display may include a polarizer layer, a color filter layer, and a thin-film-transistor 5 layer. A layer of material such as a glass insert may be attached to an edge of the display. Openings may be formed in the layers of the display and the insert to accommodate the camera. A sleeve structure may be mounted within an opening. The camera may include lens structures formed from 10 a stack of lens elements. One or more layers of the display may be interposed within the lens structures. The glass insert may be mounted within a notch in the color filter layer and thin-film transistor layer or along a straight edge of the color filter layer and thin-film transistor 15 layer. The edge of the color filter layer may be recessed with respect to form a mounting shelf for the insert.

    Abstract: A portable computer, e.g. lap-top, comprises: a display (14, Figure 1) in a hinged upper housing including a colour filter (CF) layer 60, a thin-film transistor (TFT) layer 52, and at least one polarizer layer 62 having an (e.g. circular, 22, Figure 1) opening 112 from which portions of the polarizer layer have been removed, e.g. by bleaching using light (Figure 9) or liquid (118, Figure 15); a camera 102 in the upper housing receives light through the polarizer layer gap. An opaque masking layer 138 (ink, metallic, etc) may be provided in an inactive display border region, on top of the polariser or CF layer, or on a lower surface of the polariser or CF layer. Also claimed is a similar portable computer, comprising a display wherein the opaque masking layer is interposed between the CF and TFT layers, the opaque layer blocking inactive peripheral display portions from view; the opaque layer forms a border around the display, and has an opening, a camera receiving light through the opening. The display structure with integral, embedded camera inside may be applied to other portable devices, e.g. handheld devices (10, Figure 2).

    Abstract: An electronic device such as a portable computer may have a housing with a rectangular recess in which layers of display structures such as a light guide panel layer and other light guide structures are directly mounted without intervening chassis members. Mating alignment features in the housing and display structures may be used to align the display structures relative to the housing. A display may be formed from glass layers such as a color filter glass layer and a thin-film transistor glass layer. Backlight for the display may be generated by an array of light-emitting diodes. The light guide panel may direct light from the light-emitting diodes through the glass layers. A clamp may be used to hold the light-emitting diodes and light guide structures in place in the recess. An undercut in the housing may also hold the light guide structures in place.
