Abstract
According to one aspect of the present invention, an apparatus is provided in which a first display element and a second display element are arranged adjacent to each other forming a seam therebetween. Each display element includes a front panel that has a black matrix and a plurality of pixel elements disposed on a first surface thereof. The black matrix is patterned to cover at least a portion of the first surface along an edge of the first surface proximate the seam. The plurality of pixel elements are disposed in those regions of the first surface that are not covered by the black matrix. Each display element, in one embodiment, further includes a back panel attached to the first surface of a corresponding front panel. The first and second display elements are attached to a cover plate using an index-matching adhesive in which the corresponding adhesive is used to fill the seams between the first and second display elements to a predetermined thickness. In one embodiment, the back side of the seams between the back panels is filled with a black filler material that is designed to provide an optical match with the black matrix.
