Abstract: The present disclosure is generally related to 3D imaging capable OLED displays. A light field display comprises an array of 3D light field pixels, each of which comprises an array of corrugated OLED pixels, a metasurface layer disposed adjacent to the array of 3D light field pixels, and a plurality of median layers disposed between the metasurface layer and the corrugated OLED pixels. Each of the corrugated OLED pixels comprises primary or non-primary color subpixels, and produces a different view of an image through the median layers to the metasurface to form a 3D image. The corrugated OLED pixels combined with a cavity effect reduce a divergence of emitted light to enable effective beam direction manipulation by the metasurface. The metasurface having a higher refractive index and a smaller filling factor enables the deflection and direction of the emitted light from the corrugated OLED pixels to be well controlled.

Abstract: An electronic device is provided, and the electronic device includes a base, a cover plate, and a bezel. The base has a sidewall where an opening portion is formed. An airflow selectively passes through the opening portion. The cover plate is pivotally connected to the base. The bezel is movably connected to the cover plate, wherein the bezel is rotated facing the opening portion selectively. The arrangement of the bezel may reduce the gap between the bezel and the down edge of the opening portion of the base, reducing the airflow flowing downward back to the heat-dissipation mechanism in the base. Therefore, the heat-dissipation efficiency of the electronic device is enhanced.
