Abstract

A display apparatus is disclosed, which includes: a display panel; a first adhesive layer disposed on the display panel; a cover layer disposed on the first adhesive layer; and a biometric sensor disposed between the first adhesive layer and the cover layer.

Claims (25)

1. A display apparatus, comprising:

a display panel including an active substrate, wherein the active substrate includes a display area and a non-display area adjacent to the display area;

a first adhesive layer disposed on the display panel;

a cover layer disposed on the first adhesive layer;

a biometric sensor disposed between the first adhesive layer and the cover layer;

an integrated circuit disposed at a side of the display panel opposite to the cover layer; and

a conductive adhesive layer;

wherein the integrated circuit is attached to the non-display area through the conductive adhesive layer.

2. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first adhesive layer has a first thickness in a range from 10 μm to 200 μm.

3. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the cover layer includes a recess portion and at least a part of the biometric sensor is embedded in the recess portion.

4. The display apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the cover layer has a second thickness corresponding to the recess portion and the second thickness is in a range from 30 μm to 300 μm.

5. The display apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the cover layer includes a protruding portion corresponding to the recess portion, the protruding portion is disposed at a first side of the cover layer, the recess portion is disposed at a second side of the cover layer, and the first side is opposite to the second side.

6. The display apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a second adhesive layer disposed between the biometric sensor and the cover layer.

7. The display apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the first adhesive layer has a first thickness, the second adhesive layer has a third thickness, and the third thickness is less than the first thickness.

8. The display apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer respectively have a refractive index in a range from 1.41 to 1.51.

9. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the cover layer has a fourth thickness in a range from 30 μm to 300 μm.

10. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the integrated circuit is disposed on the non-display area and the integrated circuit is electrically connected to the biometric sensor.

11. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the biometric sensor overlaps the display area in a first direction perpendicular to the active substrate.

12. The display apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the biometric sensor further overlaps the non-display area in the first direction.

13. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the display panel further includes a counter substrate disposed opposite to the active substrate, the non-display area includes a first region and a second region, the first region overlaps the counter substrate in a first direction perpendicular to the active substrate, and the second region does not overlap the counter substrate in the first direction.

14. The display apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the biometric sensor overlaps the first region in the first direction.

15. The display apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the biometric sensor further overlaps the second region in the first direction.

16. The display apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the biometric sensor overlaps the second region in the first direction.

17. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the cover layer includes an extending portion which does not overlap the display panel in a second direction perpendicular to the cover layer and the biometric sensor is disposed on the extending portion.

18. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the biometric sensor comprises a fingerprint sensor, an iris sensor, a retina sensor, a facial sensor, a vein sensor, a voice sensor, a motion sensor, a gesture sensor, or a DNA sensor.
