US 11,453,201 B2 · Window glass and electronic device including the same

Abstract

A window glass is disclosed. The window glass is divided into a transparent area and an opaque area formed to surround at least part of the transparent area. The window glass includes a transparent layer and an opaque layer that forms the opaque area by being stacked on a partial area of the transparent layer to correspond to the opaque area. The transparent layer includes a protective glass that forms a first surface of the window glass, a first transparent layer formed of a material that is hardened by irradiation of UV light, the first transparent layer including a pattern portion having a pattern formed on an area corresponding to the opaque area, and a second transparent layer formed of an optically isotropic material and formed between the protective glass and the first transparent layer. The opaque layer is formed on the pattern portion of the window glass.

Dependent claims

A window glass, wherein the window glass is divided into a transparent area and an opaque area formed to surround at least part of the transparent area,

wherein the window glass comprises:
a transparent layer;
and
an opaque layer configured to form the opaque area by being stacked on a partial area of the transparent layer to correspond to the opaque area,
wherein the transparent layer includes:
a protective glass configured to form a first surface of the window glass;
a first transparent layer formed of a material that is hardened by irradiation of UV light, the first transparent layer including a pattern portion having a pattern formed on an area corresponding to the opaque area;
and
a second transparent layer formed of an optically isotropic material and formed between the protective glass and the first transparent layer,
wherein the opaque layer is formed on the pattern portion, and
wherein part of the first transparent layer and the opaque layer form a second surface of the window glass.

8 more elements

An electronic device comprising:

a housing;
a window glass formed on at least a first surface of the housing;
a touch screen panel disposed in the housing and disposed under the window glass,
a fingerprint sensor disposed in the housing and disposed in a position corresponding to a partial area of the touch screen panel;
and
at least one processor disposed in the housing,
wherein the window glass includes:
a transparent layer, wherein the transparent layer includes a protective glass configured to form a first surface of the window glass, a first transparent layer formed of a material that is hardened by irradiation of UV light, and a second transparent layer formed of an optically isotropic material and formed between the protective glass and the first transparent layer;
and
an opaque layer formed on a partial area of the first transparent layer,
wherein a remaining area of the first transparent layer and the opaque layer form a second surface of the window glass, and
wherein the at least one processor is configured to control the touch screen panel and the fingerprint sensor such that light emitted from the touch screen panel passes through the second transparent layer of the window glass and is collected through the fingerprint sensor.
