Abstract: A method of fabricating a multi-color display includes dispensing a photo-curable fluid over a display having an array of LEDs disposed below a cover layer. The cover has an outer surface with a plurality of recesses, and the photo-curable fluid fills the recesses. The photo-curable fluid includes a color conversion agent. A plurality of LEDs in the array are activated to illuminate and cure the photo-curable fluid to form a color conversion layer in the recesses over the activated LEDs. This layer will convert light from these LEDs to light of a first color. An uncured remainder of the photo-curable fluid is removed. Then the process is repeated with a different photo-curable fluid having a different color conversion agent and a different plurality of LEDs. This forms a second color conversion layer in different plurality of recesses to convert light from these LEDs to light of a second color.

This process is repeated with a fluid having different color conversion components for another color.
