FLEXIBLE MULTI-LAYERED COVER LENS STACKS FOR FOLDABLE DISPLAYS

Abstract:

Embodiments described and discussed herein generally relate to flexible or foldable display devices, and more specifically to flexible cover lens assemblies. In one or more embodiments, a flexible cover lens assembly contains a glass layer, an impact absorption layer disposed on the glass layer, a moisture barrier layer disposed on the impact absorption layer, a substrate disposed on the moisture barrier layer, a wet hardcoat layer having a nano-indentation hardness in a range from about 0.4 GPa to about 1.5 GPa and disposed on the substrate, an adhesion promotion layer disposed on the wet hardcoat layer, an anti-reflectance layer disposed on the adhesion promotion layer, a dry hardcoat layer having a nano-indentation hardness in a range from about 1 GPa to about 5 GPa and disposed on the anti-reflectance layer, and an anti-fingerprint coating layer disposed on the dry hardcoat layer.
