Abstract: To minimize the width of a non-light-emitting border region around an opening in the active area, data lines may be stacked in the border region. Data line portions may be formed using three metal layers in three different planes within the border region. A metal layer that forms a positive power signal distribution path in the active area may serve as a data line portion in the border region. A metal layer may be added in the border region to serve as a data line portion in the border region. Data line signals may also be provided to pixels on both sides of an opening in the active area using supplemental data line paths. A supplemental data line path may be routed through the active area of the display to electrically connect data line segments on opposing sides of an opening within the display.

Abstract: A display may have an array of pixels formed from organic light-emitting diodes and thin-film transistor circuitry. The organic light-emitting diodes may be interposed between a substrate (30) and a cover layer (70). The organic light-emitting diodes may be white light-emitting diodes (26) that emit white light that is filtered through a color filter array (76) to produce colored light. The color filter array may be located above or below the array of light-emitting diodes. A microcavity may be formed between the substrate (30) and each light-emitting diode (26). The microcavity may be formed from an anode (36) in the light-emitting diode and first (86) and second layers (78) with different refractive indices. The low-refractive-index layer may be formed from a color filter in the color filter array. Light from the light-emitting diode may resonate within the microcavity beneath each light-emitting diode before exiting the display as colored light.

Abstract: Systems and methods for detection of incident light are described. An optical imaging sensor is positioned at least partially within an active display area of a display and is configured to detect and characterize one or more properties of light incident to the active display area of the display.

Abstract: A display may have an array of pixels formed from organic light-emitting diodes and thin-film transistor circuitry. Each pixel may include organic layers interposed between an anode and a cathode. The organic layers may emit out-coupled light that escapes the display and waveguided light that is waveguided within the organic layers. A reflector may be placed at the edge of the organic layers to reflect the waveguided light out of the display. The reflector may be located within a pixel definition layer and may be formed from metal or may be formed from one or more interfaces between high-refractive-index material and low-refractive-index material. The reflector may be formed from an extended portion of the pixel anode. The reflector may be formed from light-reflecting particles that are suspended in the pixel definition layer.
