Display Device - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240224766 titled 'Display Device
The patent application describes a display device with improved light extraction efficiency and touch functionality.
- Substrate divided into multiple unit areas
- Multiple sub-pixels in each unit area
- Encapsulation unit on sub-pixels
- Black matrix with open areas corresponding to sub-pixel emission areas
- Touch electrodes on upper and side surfaces of black matrix for touch function and light extraction efficiency
Potential Applications: - Consumer electronics - Automotive displays - Medical devices
Problems Solved: - Enhancing light extraction efficiency - Adding touch functionality to displays
Benefits: - Improved user experience - Better visibility in bright environments
Commercial Applications: Title: Enhanced Display Technology for Consumer Electronics This technology can be used in smartphones, tablets, and other consumer electronic devices to provide a better display experience for users.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the touch functionality improve user interaction with the display? - The touch electrodes allow users to interact directly with the display, enabling gestures and commands. 2. What are the advantages of having touch electrodes on both the upper and side surfaces of the black matrix? - Having touch electrodes on both surfaces allows for more precise touch detection and better overall performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
a display device according includes a substrate divided into a plurality of unit areas; a plurality of sub-pixels disposed in each of the plurality of unit areas of the substrate; an encapsulation unit disposed on the plurality of sub-pixels; a black matrix disposed on the encapsulation unit and having an open area corresponding to an emission area of each of the plurality of sub-pixels; and at least one touch electrode disposed on an upper surface and a side surface of the black matrix, thereby performing a touch function and improving light extraction efficiency.
