Abstract: An electronic device may have a display with an array of pixels. The device may have an array of components such as an array of light sensors for capturing fingerprints of a user through an array of corresponding transparent windows in the display. A capacitive touch sensor, proximity sensor, force sensor, or other sensor may be used by control circuitry in the device to monitor for the presence of a user's finger over the array of light sensors. In response, the control circuitry can direct the display to illuminate a subset of the pixels, thereby illuminating the user's finger and causing reflected light from the finger to illuminate the array of light sensors for a fingerprint capture operation. The display may have display driver circuitry that facilitates the momentary illumination of the subset of pixels with uniform flash data while image data is displayed in other portions of the display.

Abstract: A display may have an array of pixels with light-emitting diodes that emit light to form images. The display may have a substrate with thin-film transistor circuitry for supplying signals to the light-emitting diodes. Anodes may be formed on the thin-film transistor circuitry, emissive material may be formed on the anodes, and a cathode layer may overlap the anodes. During operation, currents may flow between the anodes and the cathode layer to illuminate the diodes. An array of electrical components such as an array of light sensors in an integrated circuit may be mounted under the substrate. An array of corresponding light transmitting windows may be formed in the display each of which may allow light to pass through the display to a corresponding one of the light sensors. Light transmitting windows may be formed by patterning the cathode layer and supplying the windows with antireflection layers.
