Description

電子裝置Electronic device

本創作是有關於一種電子裝置及其製造方法，特別是有關於一種包含可撓性螢幕的電子裝置。This creation is about an electronic device and its manufacturing method, especially an electronic device that includes a flexible screen.

近期，市場上已有可折疊螢幕的手機推出。對於手機廠商而言，可折疊螢幕的手機不僅可樹立品牌形象，還可提升產品售價。可折疊螢幕的手機也將替代平板，甚至筆記型電腦，成為新的業務增長來源。對於供應鏈廠商而言，可折疊螢幕的手機將帶來新的需求，提升廠商盈利能力。Recently, mobile phones with foldable screens have been launched on the market. For mobile phone manufacturers, mobile phones with foldable screens can not only establish brand images, but also increase product prices. Mobile phones with foldable screens will also replace tablets and even notebook computers as a new source of business growth. For supply chain manufacturers, mobile phones with foldable screens will bring new demands and improve their profitability.

為了達到可折疊效果，一些現有可折疊螢幕的蓋板是採用高分子薄膜來實現。除了柔韌性，這層薄膜需要做到薄厚度、高硬度、耐高溫及高透光等特性。然而，由實驗數據來看，若單純使用塑料薄膜製作之可折疊螢幕在折疊達到一定次數後，可折疊蓋板由於採用塑料薄膜無法具備較高應力釋放能力(也可說單純塑料薄膜形成蓋板本身楊氏模量較低)，進一步會出現光學性能（例如，亮度、對比度）大幅降低的情況。再觀先前技術美國專利申請案第20200225699A號可知，習知技術使用貼合膠(optical clear adhesive; OCA)或壓敏膠(press sensitive adhesive; PSA)作為疊構間耦接之用，不僅增加整體厚度，於反覆折疊後也容易形成裂縫間隙。In order to achieve a foldable effect, some existing foldable screen covers are realized by using polymer films. In addition to flexibility, this film needs to be thin, high hardness, high temperature resistance and high light transmittance. However, from the experimental data, if a foldable screen made of plastic film is folded for a certain number of times, the foldable cover cannot have a high stress relief ability due to the use of plastic film (it can also be said that the cover is formed by a plastic film. The Young's modulus itself is low), and the optical performance (for example, brightness, contrast) will be greatly reduced. Looking back at the prior art U.S. Patent Application No. 20200225699A, it can be seen that the prior art uses optical clear adhesive (OCA) or pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) for coupling between laminated structures, which not only increases the overall Thickness, cracks and gaps are easily formed after repeated folding.

因此，如何提出一種可解決上述問題的電子裝置，是目前業界亟欲投入研發資源解決的問題之一。Therefore, how to propose an electronic device that can solve the above-mentioned problems is one of the problems that the industry urgently wants to invest in research and development resources to solve.

有鑑於此，本創作之一目的在於提出一種可有解決上述問題的電子裝置。In view of this, one purpose of this creation is to provide an electronic device that can solve the above-mentioned problems.

The second screen is rotatably connected to the first screen. The cover plate covers the first screen and the second screen.

於本創作的一或多個實施方式中，第一螢幕及第二螢幕為觸控顯示螢幕。In one or more embodiments of this creation, the first screen and the second screen are touch display screens.

於本創作的一或多個實施方式中，各觸控顯示螢幕包含力感應層。In one or more embodiments of the present creation, each touch display screen includes a force sensing layer.

於本創作的一或多個實施方式中，電子裝置為摺疊手機。In one or more embodiments of the present creation, the electronic device is a folding mobile phone.

為了達到上述目的，依據本創作之一實施方式，一種電子裝置之製造方法包含：提供蓋板，其中蓋板包含相疊合之玻璃層以及至少一透明覆蓋層；形成觸控感測層於蓋板下；以及形成顯示模組於觸控感測層下。In order to achieve the above object, according to one embodiment of the present invention, a method of manufacturing an electronic device includes: providing a cover plate, wherein the cover plate includes a laminated glass layer and at least one transparent cover layer; and forming a touch sensing layer on the cover Under the board; and forming a display module under the touch sensing layer.

於本創作的一或多個實施方式中，提供蓋板包含：塗佈高分子材料層於玻璃層；以及烘乾高分子材料層以形成透明覆蓋層。In one or more embodiments of the present invention, providing the cover plate includes: coating a polymer material layer on the glass layer; and drying the polymer material layer to form a transparent covering layer.

綜上所述，於本創作的電子裝置中，蓋板中的透明覆蓋層係設置且接觸於玻璃層。換言之，透明覆蓋層與玻璃層並非採用貼合膠（例如，光學膠(Optical Clear Adhesive, OCA)）相互貼合，因此不僅可減少蓋板的整體厚度，減少於彎折過程膠體鬆脫形成氣孔及不必要的裂縫間隙，還可有效提升蓋板的表面性能（例如，抗彎折、抗應力、耐磨度、硬度）。另外，少了貼合膠的使用還可簡化製程，進而可降低製造成本。In summary, in the electronic device of this creation, the transparent cover layer in the cover plate is arranged and is in contact with the glass layer. In other words, the transparent cover layer and the glass layer are not adhered to each other with glue (for example, Optical Clear Adhesive (OCA)), so not only can the overall thickness of the cover plate be reduced, but the loosening of the glue during the bending process can reduce the formation of pores. And unnecessary crack gaps can also effectively improve the surface properties of the cover (for example, bending resistance, stress resistance, wear resistance, hardness). In addition, the use of laminating glue can also simplify the manufacturing process, thereby reducing manufacturing costs.

以上所述僅係用以闡述本創作所欲解決的問題、解決問題的技術手段、及其產生的功效等等，本創作之具體細節將在下文的實施方式及相關圖式中詳細介紹。The above description is only used to explain the problem to be solved by this creation, the technical means to solve the problem, and the effects produced by it, etc. The specific details of this creation will be introduced in detail in the following embodiments and related drawings.

As shown in Figure 2, in this embodiment, the electronic device 100 further includes a touch sensing layer 120, a display module 130, a polarizing layer 140, a metal plate 170, a pressure glue 180, a support 190, and a bonding glue OCA1 , OCA2 (for example, Optical Clear Adhesive (OCA)). The touch sensing layer 120 is disposed under the cover 110. With the touch sensing layer 120, the electronic device 100 can provide a touch sensing function. The display module 130 is disposed under the touch sensing layer 120. The polarizing layer 140 is disposed between the touch sensing layer 120 and the display module 130. The polarizing layer 140 is bonded to the touch sensing layer 120 via the bonding adhesive OCA1. The screen displayed by the display module 130 can be sequentially viewed by the user through the multi-layer structure disposed above it, so that the display function of the electronic device 100 can be provided. In some embodiments, the display module 130 is, for example, an organic light emitting display module or electronic paper. The polarizing layer 140 is configured to achieve a specific optical effect. For example, the polarizing layer 140 can block the reflection of external light to ensure that the image displayed by the display module 130 can maintain a high contrast. The metal plate 170 is disposed under the display module 130 and is bonded to the display module 130 through the adhesive OCA2. The pressure glue 180 is arranged under the metal plate 170. The support 190 is arranged under the pressure glue 180.

於一些實施方式中，觸控感測層120於結構上可以是單層架橋(single-side bridge;SITO)圖案、單層多點圖案(non-cross pattern)等圖案設計，但不以此為限，於材料選用上可以是奈米銀線(silver nano wires, SNW；又稱AgNW)電極層、金屬網格(metal mesh)或包含氧化銦錫(ITO)電極層所組成，但本創作並不以此為限。在觸控感測層120為奈米銀線電極層的實施方式中，觸控感測層120可包含基質和摻雜於其內之奈米銀線。奈米銀線於基質中相互搭接形成導電網路。基質是指含奈米銀線的溶液在經過塗佈與加熱烘乾等製程所形成的非奈米銀線物質。奈米銀線散佈或嵌入於基質中，且部分地從基質中突出。基質可以保護奈米銀線免受腐蝕、磨損等外界環境的影響。於一些實施方式中，基質係可壓縮的。In some embodiments, the touch sensing layer 120 may be structured as a single-side bridge (SITO) pattern, a single-layer multi-dot pattern (non-cross pattern), etc., but this is not the case. However, the material selection can be composed of silver nano wires (SNW; also known as AgNW) electrode layer, metal mesh or electrode layer containing indium tin oxide (ITO), but this creation does not Not limited to this. In the embodiment where the touch sensing layer 120 is a nano silver wire electrode layer, the touch sensing layer 120 may include a matrix and nano silver wires doped therein. The silver nanowires overlap each other in the matrix to form a conductive network. The matrix refers to the non-nanosilver material formed by the solution containing silver nanowires through processes such as coating and heating and drying. The silver nanowires are scattered or embedded in the matrix, and partly protrude from the matrix. The matrix can protect the silver nanowires from the external environment such as corrosion and abrasion. In some embodiments, the matrix is compressible.

於一些實施方式中，觸控感測層120亦可於單層架橋圖案中搭配使用IAI疊層架構(即如於第一軸向電極或第二軸向電極之一者選擇ITO-Al-ITO疊層架構或SNW-Al-SNW疊層架構)。In some embodiments, the touch sensing layer 120 can also be used in a single-layer bridge pattern with an IAI stack structure (ie, ITO-Al-ITO is selected for one of the first axis electrode or the second axis electrode Stacked architecture or SNW-Al-SNW stacked architecture).

於一些實施方式中，觸控感測層120設置且接觸於蓋板110的下表面。於一些實施方式中，偏光層140設置且接觸於顯示模組130的上表面。In some embodiments, the touch sensing layer 120 is disposed and is in contact with the lower surface of the cover 110. In some embodiments, the polarizing layer 140 is disposed and is in contact with the upper surface of the display module 130.

於一些實施方式中，電子裝置100可僅具有觸控功能而不具有顯示功能。換言之，前述顯示模組130與偏光層140可由電子裝置100中省略，而金屬板170可經由貼合膠OCA1、OCA2中之一者貼合至觸控感測層120。In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 may only have a touch function without a display function. In other words, the aforementioned display module 130 and the polarizing layer 140 can be omitted from the electronic device 100, and the metal plate 170 can be attached to the touch sensing layer 120 via one of the adhesives OCA1 and OCA2.

於一些實施方式中，電子裝置100可僅具有顯示功能而不具有觸控功能。換言之，前述觸控感測層120可由電子裝置100中省略，而偏光層140可設置且接觸於蓋板110的下表面，或經由貼合膠OCA1貼合至蓋板110。In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 may only have a display function but not a touch function. In other words, the aforementioned touch sensing layer 120 can be omitted from the electronic device 100, and the polarizing layer 140 can be disposed and contacted on the lower surface of the cover 110, or bonded to the cover 110 via the adhesive OCA1.

如第2圖所示，於本實施方式中，蓋板110包含玻璃層111以及透明覆蓋層112、113。玻璃層111具有位於相反側之第一表面111a及第二表面111b。透明覆蓋層112、113分別設置且接觸於第一表面111a及第二表面111b。觸控感測層120設置且接觸於透明覆蓋層113，且玻璃層111疊合於透明覆蓋層112、113之間。由此可知，透明覆蓋層112、113與玻璃層111並非採用貼合膠相互貼合，因此不僅可減少蓋板110的整體厚度，還可有效提升蓋板110的表面性能（例如，耐磨度、硬度）。另外，少了貼合膠的使用還可簡化製程，進而可降低製造成本。As shown in FIG. 2, in this embodiment, the cover 110 includes a glass layer 111 and transparent covering layers 112 and 113. The glass layer 111 has a first surface 111a and a second surface 111b on opposite sides. The transparent covering layers 112 and 113 are respectively disposed and contacting the first surface 111a and the second surface 111b. The touch sensing layer 120 is disposed and in contact with the transparent covering layer 113, and the glass layer 111 is laminated between the transparent covering layers 112 and 113. It can be seen that the transparent cover layers 112, 113 and the glass layer 111 are not attached to each other by using adhesives, so not only can the overall thickness of the cover 110 be reduced, but also the surface performance of the cover 110 can be effectively improved (for example, wear resistance) ,hardness). In addition, the use of laminating glue can also simplify the manufacturing process, thereby reducing manufacturing costs.

於一些實施方式中，透明覆蓋層112、113的材料包含聚醯亞胺(Polyimide)，但本創作並不以此為限。In some embodiments, the material of the transparent covering layers 112 and 113 includes Polyimide, but the present creation is not limited to this.

於一些實施方式中，玻璃層111具有介於約10微米至約300微米之間之厚度；較佳地，玻璃層111具有介於約20微米至約100微米之間之厚度(例如最優地選擇介於約25至35微米之間，此範圍具有夠薄之厚度及足夠的應力支撐效果)；因此，玻璃層111係為超薄玻璃層。In some embodiments, the glass layer 111 has a thickness between about 10 microns and about 300 microns; preferably, the glass layer 111 has a thickness between about 20 microns and about 100 microns (for example, optimally Choose between about 25 to 35 microns, this range has a sufficiently thin thickness and sufficient stress support effect); therefore, the glass layer 111 is an ultra-thin glass layer.

請參照第3圖，其為繪示根據本創作一實施方式之電子裝置之製造方法的流程圖。如第3圖所示，電子裝置之製造方法主要包含步驟S101至步驟S103。Please refer to FIG. 3, which is a flowchart illustrating a manufacturing method of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, the manufacturing method of an electronic device mainly includes steps S101 to S103.

於步驟S101中，提供蓋板，其中蓋板包含相疊合之玻璃層以及透明覆蓋層。In step S101, a cover plate is provided, wherein the cover plate includes a laminated glass layer and a transparent cover layer.

於步驟S102中，觸控感測層形成於蓋板下。In step S102, the touch sensing layer is formed under the cover plate.

於步驟S103中，顯示模組形成於觸控感測層下。In step S103, the display module is formed under the touch sensing layer.

於一些實施方式中，步驟S101包含步驟S101a及步驟S101b。In some embodiments, step S101 includes step S101a and step S101b.

於步驟S101a中，高分子材料層塗佈於玻璃層。In step S101a, the polymer material layer is coated on the glass layer.

於步驟S101b中，高分子材料層烘乾以形成透明覆蓋層。In step S101b, the polymer material layer is dried to form a transparent covering layer.

於一些實施方式中，步驟S102包含步驟S102a及步驟S102b。In some embodiments, step S102 includes step S102a and step S102b.

於步驟S102a中，導電塗層塗佈於蓋板下。In step S102a, the conductive coating is coated under the cover plate.

於步驟S102b中，導電塗層烘乾以形成觸控感測層。In step S102b, the conductive coating is dried to form a touch sensing layer.

由以上步驟可知，透明覆蓋層112、113中之至少一者係經烘乾之高分子材料層。高分子材料層的材料較佳地包含聚醯亞胺(Polyimide; PI)或無色聚醯亞胺(Colorless Polyimide；CPI)，但不以此為限，優選地使用可塗佈之液態聚醯亞胺材料(例如可溶性聚醯亞胺型;Soluble Polyimide，簡稱SPI)，具有低吸濕膨脹係數、低黏度與高透明性之特性。於一些實施方式中，透明覆蓋層112、113中之至少一者具有介於約3微米至約50微米之間之厚度，較佳地具有介於約5微米至約15微米之間之厚度(例如最優地選擇介於約5微米至約10微米之厚度)。It can be seen from the above steps that at least one of the transparent covering layers 112 and 113 is a dried polymer material layer. The material of the polymer material layer preferably includes Polyimide (PI) or Colorless Polyimide (Colorless Polyimide; CPI), but not limited to this. Preferably, a coatingable liquid polyimide is used. Amine materials (such as soluble polyimide type; Soluble Polyimide, SPI for short) have the characteristics of low hygroscopic expansion coefficient, low viscosity and high transparency. In some embodiments, at least one of the transparent covering layers 112, 113 has a thickness between about 3 microns and about 50 microns, and preferably has a thickness between about 5 microns and about 15 microns ( For example, a thickness between about 5 microns to about 10 microns is optimally selected).

於一些實施方式中，如第2圖所示，電子裝置100進一步包含抗反射層150。抗反射層150設置於蓋板110遠離觸控感測層120的一側。In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2, the electronic device 100 further includes an anti-reflection layer 150. The anti-reflective layer 150 is disposed on the side of the cover 110 away from the touch sensing layer 120.

於一些實施方式中，透明覆蓋層112、113的其中一者可以省略。舉例來說，當透明覆蓋層113省略時，觸控感測層120係設置且接觸於玻璃層111的下表面。當透明覆蓋層112省略時，抗反射層150係設置且接觸於玻璃層111的上表面。In some embodiments, one of the transparent covering layers 112 and 113 may be omitted. For example, when the transparent cover layer 113 is omitted, the touch sensing layer 120 is disposed and is in contact with the lower surface of the glass layer 111. When the transparent cover layer 112 is omitted, the anti-reflection layer 150 is provided and is in contact with the upper surface of the glass layer 111.

於一些實施方式中，高分子材料層係為採用狹縫式塗佈(Slot die coating)製程塗佈於玻璃層111，但本創作並不以此為限。於一些實施方式中，烘乾高分子材料層之固化溫度為約80至約350度，例如在約80至約150度之範圍或約200至約350度之範圍，但本創作不以此為限。In some embodiments, the polymer material layer is coated on the glass layer 111 by a slot die coating process, but the invention is not limited to this. In some embodiments, the curing temperature for drying the polymer material layer is about 80 to about 350 degrees, for example, in the range of about 80 to about 150 degrees or about 200 to about 350 degrees, but this creation is not limit.

於一些實施方式中，高分子材料層於塗層階段還包含用以溶解聚醯胺酸之有機溶劑以形成高分子塗料層。有機溶劑例如為甲基異丁基甲酮(MIBK)、丙二醇單甲醚酸酯(PGMEA)、異丙醇(IPA)、二甲基乙醯胺(DMAC)等。高分子材料層還包含偶聯劑。聚醯胺酸固含量優選為約3至約15wt%，偶聯劑的加入量優選為聚醯胺酸固含量的約0.5至約10wt%，但不以此為限只要能作為溶劑者皆屬於本創作有機溶劑範圍。In some embodiments, the polymer material layer further includes an organic solvent for dissolving polyamide acid in the coating stage to form the polymer coating layer.

於實際應用中，前述塗佈製程亦可改為濺鍍製程或印刷製程。In practical applications, the aforementioned coating process can also be changed to a sputtering process or a printing process.

為了更進一步提高蓋板110的楊氏模量，可於透明覆蓋層之一層或兩層(即如透明覆蓋層112與透明覆蓋層113之一者或兩者）於液態狀態中添加有無機混合物。舉例來說，無機混合物可包含石墨烯或金剛石，優選地以石墨烯摻雜物較佳，但本創作並不以此為限。實際上，石墨烯力學性能突出表現為高強度、高模量，其抗拉楊氏模量最高可達200GPa，以使複合蓋板之最大楊氏模量趨於200Pa，值得一提，石墨烯硬度比莫氏硬度10級的金剛石還高，還具有很好的韌性，且可以彎曲，延展性優異。於一些實施方式中，高分子材料層可進一步包含例如二氧化矽之奈米粒子，其可改善硬度不足的缺陷並提高表面強度。在偶聯劑的作用下，對透明二氧化矽奈米粒子進行進一步的分散，可提高透明奈米粒子在高分子材料層中的分散穩定性。此外，利用二氧化矽的矽醇基團與偶聯劑發生化學反應還可提高薄膜硬度、熱膨脹係數等性能，減小其與基材的物性差異。In order to further increase the Young's modulus of the cover 110, an inorganic compound can be added to one or both of the transparent covering layers (ie, one or both of the transparent covering layer 112 and the transparent covering layer 113) in the liquid state. . For example, the inorganic mixture may include graphene or diamond, preferably graphene dopants, but the invention is not limited to this. In fact, the outstanding mechanical properties of graphene are high strength and high modulus, and its tensile Young's modulus can reach up to 200 GPa, so that the maximum Young's modulus of the composite cover plate tends to 200 Pa. It is worth mentioning that graphene The hardness is higher than that of diamond with Mohs hardness level 10. It also has good toughness, can bend, and has excellent ductility. In some embodiments, the polymer material layer may further include nano particles such as silicon dioxide, which can improve the defects of insufficient hardness and increase the surface strength. Under the action of the coupling agent, the transparent silica nanoparticles are further dispersed, which can improve the dispersion stability of the transparent nanoparticles in the polymer material layer. In addition, the chemical reaction between the silanol group of silicon dioxide and the coupling agent can also improve the film hardness, thermal expansion coefficient and other properties, and reduce the difference in physical properties between the film and the substrate.

於一些實施方式中，高分子塗料層的黏度為約100至約5000cps；較佳地，高分子塗料層具有介於約300至約1000cps之黏度。In some embodiments, the viscosity of the polymer coating layer is about 100 to about 5000 cps; preferably, the polymer coating layer has a viscosity of about 300 to about 1000 cps.

於一些實施方式中，透明覆蓋層112、113中之至少一者的材料也可包含聚萘二甲酸乙二醇酯(PEN)、聚偏氟乙烯(PVDF)或聚碳酸酯(PC)等透明材料，但本創作並不以此為限。In some embodiments, the material of at least one of the transparent covering layers 112 and 113 may also include transparent polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), or polycarbonate (PC). Materials, but this creation is not limited to this.

於一些實施方式中，玻璃層111為紫外光吸收玻璃層。亦即，玻璃層111具有UV光吸收能力。In some embodiments, the glass layer 111 is an ultraviolet light absorbing glass layer. That is, the glass layer 111 has UV light absorption capability.

於一些實施方式中，如第2圖所示，電子裝置100進一步包含黑化層160。黑化層160設置於玻璃層111的邊緣，並疊合於玻璃層111與透明覆蓋層113之間。黑化層160除了可以減少Mura（即亮度不均勻造成各種痕跡的現象），也可以避免在製作觸控感測層120的製程中受到製作黑化層160的製程的干擾。In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2, the electronic device 100 further includes a blackening layer 160. The blackening layer 160 is disposed on the edge of the glass layer 111 and is laminated between the glass layer 111 and the transparent covering layer 113. In addition to reducing Mura (that is, the phenomenon of various traces caused by uneven brightness), the blackening layer 160 can also avoid interference from the manufacturing process of the blackening layer 160 during the manufacturing process of the touch sensing layer 120.

依據前述參數使用，蓋板110可具有介於10Gpa至約200Gpa區間之楊氏模量。於本創作中，需特別留意，透明覆蓋層112、113中之至少一者與玻璃層111並非採用貼合膠（例如，光學膠(Optical Clear Adhesive, OCA)）相互貼合，而使可塗佈之液態聚醯亞胺直接形成接觸於玻璃層111，因此不僅可減少蓋板110的整體厚度，還可有效提升蓋板110的表面性能（例如，兼具複合蓋板組合出的應力緩衝及抗彎折痕、耐磨度、硬度等效能）。另外，少了貼合膠的使用還可簡化製程及模組厚度，進而可降低製造成本。According to the aforementioned parameters, the cover 110 may have a Young's modulus in the range of 10 Gpa to about 200 Gpa. In this creation, it is necessary to pay special attention that at least one of the transparent cover layers 112, 113 and the glass layer 111 are not adhered to each other with an adhesive (for example, Optical Clear Adhesive (OCA)), so that it can be coated. The liquid polyimide of the cloth is directly in contact with the glass layer 111, so not only can the overall thickness of the cover plate 110 be reduced, but also the surface performance of the cover plate 110 can be effectively improved (for example, combined with the stress buffer and the composite cover plate Anti-bending, abrasion, hardness, etc. performance). In addition, the reduction of the use of glue can simplify the manufacturing process and the thickness of the module, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost.

請參照第4圖，其為繪示根據本創作另一實施方式之電子裝置100A的剖面示意圖。本實施方式之電子裝置100A相較於第2圖所示之電子裝置100的差異處，在於本實施方式之電子裝置100A省略了觸控感測層120與偏光層140之間的貼合膠OCA1。換言之，本實施方式中的觸控感測層120是直接製作於偏光層140上。在省去貼合膠OCA1之後，可進一步減少電子裝置100的整體厚度以及減少工序。Please refer to FIG. 4, which is a schematic cross-sectional view of an electronic device 100A according to another embodiment of the present creation. The difference between the electronic device 100A of this embodiment and the electronic device 100 shown in FIG. 2 is that the electronic device 100A of this embodiment omits the adhesive OCA1 between the touch sensing layer 120 and the polarizing layer 140 . In other words, the touch sensing layer 120 in this embodiment is directly fabricated on the polarizing layer 140. After omission of the adhesive OCA1, the overall thickness of the electronic device 100 and the number of processes can be further reduced.

請參照第5圖，其為繪示多種結構的應力-應變曲線圖，其中曲線C1為單層聚醯亞胺層的應力-應變曲線，曲線C2為單層玻璃層的應力-應變曲線，而曲線C3為單層聚醯亞胺層與單層玻璃層所構成之複合層疊結構的應力-應變曲線。如第5圖所示，由曲線C1可以看出，聚醯亞胺層在受到外力作用時會有較大形變。由曲線C2可以看出，玻璃層在受到外力作用時會有較小形變，其原因在於玻璃層具有較大的楊氏模量。由曲線C3可以看出，聚醯亞胺層與玻璃層所構成之複合層疊結構可取得兩種材料的綜合效果，是以在可撓性折疊應用上得以獲得較好實施效果。具體來說，聚醯亞胺層具有較佳的可撓性但較差應力承載，而玻璃層具有較佳楊氏模量，因此兩者的複合層疊結構可帶來足夠的整體可撓性及足夠的整體楊氏模量。Please refer to Figure 5, which shows the stress-strain curve of various structures. Curve C1 is the stress-strain curve of the single-layer polyimide layer, and curve C2 is the stress-strain curve of the single-layer glass layer. Curve C3 is the stress-strain curve of the composite laminated structure composed of a single polyimide layer and a single glass layer. As shown in Figure 5, it can be seen from the curve C1 that the polyimide layer deforms greatly when subjected to an external force. It can be seen from the curve C2 that the glass layer has a smaller deformation when subjected to an external force, and the reason is that the glass layer has a larger Young's modulus. It can be seen from the curve C3 that the composite laminated structure composed of the polyimide layer and the glass layer can achieve the comprehensive effect of the two materials, so it can achieve better implementation effects in flexible folding applications. Specifically, the polyimide layer has better flexibility but poor stress bearing capacity, and the glass layer has better Young's modulus, so the composite laminated structure of the two can bring sufficient overall flexibility and sufficient The overall Young's modulus.

由以上對於本創作之具體實施方式之詳述，可以明顯地看出，蓋板中的透明覆蓋層係設置且接觸於玻璃層。換言之，透明覆蓋層與玻璃層並非採用貼合膠相互貼合，因此不僅可減少蓋板的整體厚度，減少於彎折過程膠體鬆脫形成氣孔及不必要的裂縫間隙，還可有效提升蓋板的表面性能（例如，抗彎折、抗應力、耐磨度、硬度）。另外，少了貼合膠的使用還可簡化製程，進而可降低製造成本。From the above detailed description of the specific implementation of this creation, it can be clearly seen that the transparent covering layer in the cover plate is arranged and in contact with the glass layer. In other words, the transparent cover layer and the glass layer are not attached to each other by laminating glue, so it can not only reduce the overall thickness of the cover plate, reduce the loosening of the colloid during the bending process to form pores and unnecessary cracks, but also effectively lift the cover plate. Surface properties (for example, bending resistance, stress resistance, abrasion resistance, hardness). In addition, the use of laminating glue can also simplify the manufacturing process, thereby reducing manufacturing costs.
