PERIMETER ADHESIVE FOR IMPROVED RELIABILITY AND REDUCED STRESS MURA IN CURVED DISPLAYS WITH COVER GLASS

Embodiments of a curved display assembly are disclosed. The assembly includes a glass sheet having first and second major surfaces. The second major surface defines a first curvature of the glass sheet, and the first curvature has a bend axis. The assembly also includes a curved display having a second thickness between first and second display surfaces. The display has a display region and two overhanging edges adjacent to the display region and parallel to the bend axis. A first adhesive bonds the second display surface to the second major surface in the display region. A second adhesive is disposed between each of the two overhanging edges and the second major surface. The second adhesive has a higher elastic modulus than the first adhesive. The overhanging edges each extend a distance outside of the display area that is at least three times the second thickness of the curved display.
