    摘要: A structure and method of operating micro-LEDs are described. The micro-LEDs are arranged in a micro-LED array and have random orientations, distributions, and positions within the array. A lens array includes micro-lenses configured to capture light from the micro-LEDs. The micro-LED array structure is calibrated by capturing light from each of the micro-LEDs at different times and determining characteristics of the light from each of the micro-LEDs. Once image data of an image to be generated by the micro-LED array is received, a combination of the micro-LEDs to activate to produce the image, as well as the characteristics for driving the individual micro-LEDs is determined. The micro-LEDs are then activated to produce the image.

    摘要: A light emitting device comprises at least two semiconductor LEDs arranged in an array with each semiconductor LED comprising a light emitting surface with boundaries defined by a perimeter, a continuous layer comprising a first surface through which light is emitted from the light emitting device during operation and an oppositely positioned second surface disposed on or adjacent to the array and extending over the light emitting surfaces of the semiconductor LEDs, and a plurality of optical isolation structures arranged in the continuous layer in a discontinuous manner along the perimeters of the light emitting surfaces between adjacent LEDs in the array.

    摘要: In a projection display system, a polarizing beamsplitter can split an unpolarized light beam into a first internal beam and a second internal beam, which can have polarization states that are orthogonal. A polarization rotator, such as a half-wave plate, can rotate a plane of polarization of at least one of the first internal beam or the second internal beam. A beam aligner, such as a second polarizing beamsplitter, can change a propagation direction of at least one of the first internal beam or the second internal beam. The polarization rotator and the beam aligner each can adjust at least one of the first or second internal beams such that the first internal beam forms a first exiting beam and the second internal beam forms a second exiting beam. The first exiting beam and the second exiting beam can be adjacent and parallel and have parallel polarization states.

    摘要: Described are light emitting diode (LED) devices including a quantum well on a superlattice structure. The LED device has a dominant wavelength greater than 520 nm. The dominant wavelength changes less than 7 nm when the current density increases from 10 A/cm2 to 100 A/cm2 and a junction temperature of the device changes less than 20° C.

    摘要: A method of forming one or more transparent microLED light sources comprises preparing or obtaining a flexible transparent sheet on which are disposed a plurality of inorganic microLEDs and conductive paths configured to power the plurality of inorganic microLEDs, positioning a solid transparent sheet of adhesive between the flexible transparent sheet and a transparent substrate, and bonding the transparent sheet of adhesive to the flexible transparent sheet and to the transparent substrate to form a laminated structure. The conductive paths and the microLEDs are arranged to form at least one sparse microLED array.

    摘要: In a projection display system, a light-emitting diode (LED) can generate unpolarized light. A light guide can receive the unpolarized light from a perimeter of the light guide and guide the unpolarized light between a light emission surface and an opposing surface as guided light. The light guide can include a plurality of light-extraction features that can direct a portion of the guided light out of the light guide through the light emission surface as unpolarized emitted light. A polarizing film can reflect at least some of a first polarization state of the unpolarized emitted light into the light guide through the light emission surface and can transmit at least some of a second polarization state of the unpolarized emitted light through the polarizing film to form a polarized light beam. An angular reduction film can reduce a range of propagation angles of the polarized light beam.
