Original Abstract Submitted

this document describes systems and techniques directed at enlarging active areas of displays in electronic devices. in aspects, a display includes a grid of transistors positioned within a display panel module to control an illumination of one or more electroluminescent layers. routing lines extend from one or more transistors of the grid of transistors to at least one electroluminescent layer. in this way, the at least one electroluminescent layer can be positioned away from the grid of transistors and disposed above portions of display panel module driving circuitry. as a result, active areas of displays can be enlarged and information content can be maximized without a panel border area allotted to the display panel module driving circuitry surrounding transistors having to be reduced.
