Abstract
A cutting element may include a substrate having a non-planar upper surface with a peripheral edge, and an ultrahard layer. The upper surface may include at least one depression formed at least proximate the peripheral edge; and a compressive stress hoop extending around the upper surface adjacent the peripheral edge, extending into the at least one depression, and configured to reduce tensile stress in the ultrahard layer. The ultrahard layer may be on the substrate and may have a non-planar top surface and an interface formed between the ultrahard layer and the substrate.
