DISPLAY APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17875227 titled 'DISPLAY APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a display apparatus that includes multiple layers to enhance the visual quality of the display.

• The display apparatus includes a substrate and a display element on the substrate.
• An encapsulation layer is applied on the display element, which contains a dye and a first organic material.
• A first refractive layer is then applied on the encapsulation layer, with an opening corresponding to the display element.
• A second refractive layer is applied on top of the first refractive layer, which includes a pigment and a second organic material. The refractive index of the second refractive layer is different from that of the first refractive layer.

Potential applications of this technology:

• Consumer electronics such as smartphones, tablets, and televisions.
• Automotive displays and infotainment systems.
• Virtual reality and augmented reality devices.
• Wearable technology like smartwatches and smart glasses.

Problems solved by this technology:

• Enhances the visual quality of the display by improving color accuracy and contrast.
• Reduces reflection and glare on the display surface.
• Provides better viewing angles and visibility in different lighting conditions.

Benefits of this technology:

• Improved color accuracy and contrast for a more vibrant and realistic display.
• Reduced reflection and glare for better visibility in bright environments.
• Enhanced viewing angles for a wider range of comfortable viewing positions.
• Overall improved visual experience for users.

Original Abstract Submitted

A display apparatus includes: a substrate; a display element on the substrate; an encapsulation layer on the display element, and including a dye and a first organic material; a first refractive layer on the encapsulation layer, and having an opening corresponding to the display element; and a second refractive layer covering the first refractive layer, the second refractive layer including a pigment and a second organic material, and having a refractive index different from a refractive index of the first refractive layer.
