    Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with a display mounted in a housing. The display may have an array of display pixels that provide image light to a user. The array of display pixels may form an active display structure with a rectangular shape. The rectangular active display structure may be surrounded by an inactive border region. Optical structures such as a sheet of glass or another optical member may have portions that are configured to bend light from the display pixels along the periphery of the active display structure. The optical member may have an area that is larger than the area of the active display structure, so that the presence of the optical member may serve to enlarge the apparent size of the display. Solidified liquid polymer may be used to support the optical structures and may be interposed between the optical structures and the active display structures.

    Abstract: A display may have an array of display pixels that generate an image. A coherent fiber bundle may be mounted on the display pixels. The coherent fiber bundle may have a first surface that is adjacent to the display pixels and a second surface that is visible to a viewer. The coherent fiber bundle may contain fibers that carry light from the first surface to the second surface. The second surface may be planar or may have a central planar region and curved edge regions that run along opposing sides of the central planar region. The fibers may have cross-sectional surface areas with a first aspect ratio on the first surface and a second aspect ratio that is greater than the first aspect ratio on the second surface.

    Abstract: Described herein are methods of constructing a part having improved properties using metallic glass alloys, layer by layer. In accordance with certain aspects, a layer of metallic glass-forming powder is deposited to selected positions and then fused to a surface layer (i.e. layer below) by suitable methods such as laser heating or electron beam heating. The deposition and fusing are then repeated as need to construct the part, layer by layer. In certain embodiments, one or more sections or layers of non-metallic glass-forming material can be included as needed to form a composite final part. In certain aspects, the metallic glass-forming powder may be crystalized during depositing and fusing, or may be recrystallized during subsequent processing to provide selectively crystalized sections or layers, e.g., to impart desired functionality. In other aspects, non-metallic glass-forming materials may be deposited and fused at selected positions, e.g., to provide selective shear banding to impart improved ductile properties and plasticity. In yet other aspects, the metallic glass-forming powder or metallic glass material and non-metallic glass-forming material are deposited and fused to form a foam-like, bellow or similar structure, which is able to crumple under high stress to absorb energy under impact.

    Abstract: Described herein are methods of constructing a three-dimensional part using metallic glass alloys, layer by layer, as well as metallic glass-forming materials designed for use therewith. In certain embodiments, a layer of metallic glass-forming powder or a sheet of metallic glass material is deposited to selected positions and then fused to a layer below by suitable methods such as laser heating or electron beam heating. The deposition and fusing are then repeated as need to construct the part, layer by layer. One or more sections or layers of non-metallic glass material can be included as needed to form composite parts. In one embodiment, the metallic glass-forming powder is a homogenous atomized powder. In another embodiment, the metallic glass-forming powder is formed by melting a metallic glass alloy to an over-heat threshold temperature substantially above the Tliquidus of the alloy, and quenching the melt at a high cooling rate such that the cooling material is kept substantially amorphous during cooling to form the metallic glass. In various embodiments, the melt is atomized during cooling to form the metallic glass-forming powder.

    Abstract: Apparatus, systems and methods for increasing the strength of glass are disclosed. The strengthening of one portion of the glass article can be performed to a greater degree than another portion. Additionally, to mitigate against any distortion, such as warpage, physical manipulation of the glass article can be performed prior to or during strengthening, namely chemical strengthening. For example, in accordance with one embodiment, an outer surface of a glass article (e.g., cover glass) can be chemically strengthened to a greater degree than an inner surface of the glass article, yet the asymmetric strengthening does not induce distortion of the glass article because the glass article was physically manipulated, such as being bent, to counter any such distortion. Accordingly, glass articles that have undergone chemical strengthening processing are able to be not only thin and undistorted but also sufficiently strong and resistant to damage. The strengthened glass articles are well suited for use in consumer products, such as consumer electronic devices (e.g., portable electronic devices).

    Abstract translation: 公开了用于增加玻璃强度的装置，系统和方法。 玻璃制品的一部分的加强可以比另一部分更大程度地进行。 另外，为了减轻任何扭曲，例如翘曲，玻璃制品的物理操作可以在加强之前或期间进行，即化学强化。 例如，根据一个实施例，玻璃制品（例如，盖玻璃）的外表面可以化学强化到比玻璃制品的内表面更大的程度，但不对称强化不会引起玻璃变形 因为玻璃制品被物理地操纵，例如弯曲，以抵抗任何这种变形。 因此，经过化学强化处理的玻璃制品不仅能够薄而且不变形，而且还能够足够坚固并且不会损坏。 加强的玻璃制品非常适合用于诸如消费电子设备（例如便携式电子设备）的消费产品中。
