Abstract
Display structures and methods of assembly are described. In an embodiment, a display structure includes a display panel including a pattern of trenches extending at least partially through a backplane of the display panel, without extending past a matrix of LEDs in an overlying emission layer stack. The plurality of trenches can be formed in 2D to facilitate bending of the display panel into a 3D film curvature.
