  • Patent number: 10141378
    Abstract: A light emitting device is disclosed, including a first electrode layer, a second electrode layer, and an organic light emitting layer sandwiched between the first and second electrode layers. The second electrode layer is patterned to form a plurality of electrode patterns arranged with different densities. The organic light emitting layer is subjected to a color separation process to form a plurality of monochromatic blocks that correspond to the electrode patterns, respectively. The electrode patterns are divided into a plurality of electrode pattern groups arranged in an alternate manner. The electrode pattern groups display a same image, and a same voltage is applied to the electrode pattern groups at a same time. Alternatively, the electrode pattern groups display different images, and a same or different voltages are applied to the electrode pattern groups at different times.

  • Patent number: 10128418
    Abstract: An LED device has a cap containing one or more quantum dot (QD) phosphors. The cap may be sized and configured to be integrated with standard LED packages. The QD phosphor may be held within the well of the LED package, so as to absorb the maximum amount of light emitted by the LED, but arranged in spaced-apart relation from the LED chip to avoid excessive heat that can lead to degradation of the QD phosphor(s). The packages may be manufactured and stored for subsequent assembly onto an LED device.
