ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING DISPLAY AND METHOD FOR OPERATING SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240196690 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING DISPLAY AND METHOD FOR OPERATING SAME

The abstract describes a display device with pixels, opaque members, and light emitting areas for different colors.

  • The display device includes a substrate with multiple pixels, each containing sub-pixels emitting different colors.
  • Opaque members are strategically placed to prevent overlap with light emitting areas of specific sub-pixels.
  • The first opaque member surrounds the first light emitting area of a first sub-pixel displaying a first color.
  • The second opaque member overlaps a portion of the second light emitting area of a second sub-pixel displaying a second color.
  • The second opaque member wraps around the periphery of the second light emitting area by a specific thickness.
  • The first and second light emitting areas are where electrodes and organic light emitting layers of sub-pixels contact.
  • The second pixel does not have an opaque member where it does not overlap the second light emitting area.

Potential Applications: - High-quality displays for electronic devices - Enhanced color accuracy and contrast in screens - Improved energy efficiency in display technology

Problems Solved: - Minimizing light leakage between pixels - Enhancing color reproduction in displays - Optimizing the performance of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs)

Benefits: - Crisp and vibrant display quality - Reduced power consumption - Enhanced user experience with vivid visuals

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Display Technology for Consumer Electronics This innovation can be utilized in smartphones, tablets, TVs, and monitors to provide users with superior visual experiences. The technology's efficiency and color accuracy make it attractive for manufacturers seeking to differentiate their products in the competitive electronics market.

Prior Art: Prior research in display technology, particularly in OLED displays and pixel design, may provide insights into similar approaches to improving color accuracy and contrast in screens.

Frequently Updated Research: Stay informed about advancements in OLED technology, display materials, and pixel optimization techniques to enhance the performance of display devices.

Questions about Display Device Technology: 1. How does the placement of opaque members impact the overall display quality? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in mass-produced electronic devices?


Original Abstract Submitted

a display device is provided. the display device includes a substrate, a plurality of pixels disposed on the substrate and including a first pixel and a second pixel, a first opaque member located not to overlap a first light emitting area of a first sub-pixel that displays a first color included in the first pixel and to surround a circumference of the first light emitting area, and a second opaque member disposed to overlap at least a portion of a second light emitting area of a second sub-pixel that displays a second color included in the second pixel and to wrap a periphery of the second light emitting area around once by a specific first thickness, wherein the first light emitting area is an area, in which a first electrode of the first sub-pixel and a first organic light emitting layer of the first sub-pixel contact each other, and the first light emitting area may include at least two divided areas, and wherein the second light emitting area may be an area, in which a second electrode of the second sub-pixel and a second organic light emitting layer of the second sub-pixel contact each other, and the second pixel does not include an opaque member at a portion, at which the second pixel does not overlap the second light emitting area.
