Abstract: An electronic device includes a frame and a display stack. The frame defines a first part of an interior volume. The display stack includes a cover attached to the frame. The cover may define a second part of the interior volume. The display stack also includes an array of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) including an array of emissive electroluminescent (EL) regions, and at least one organic photodetector (OPD) disposed between the cover and at least one emissive EL region in the array of emissive electroluminescent regions. The at least one emissive EL region emits light through the at least one OPD. In alternative embodiments, the OLEDs may be stacked on the OPDs, or the OLEDs and OPDs may be interspersed with each other instead of stacked.

Abstract: An organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display may have an array of organic light-emitting diode pixels that each have OLED layers interposed between a cathode and an anode. Voltage may be applied to the anode of each pixel to control the magnitude of emitted light. The conductivity of the OLED layers may allow leakage current to pass between neighboring anodes in the display. To reduce leakage current and the accompanying cross-talk, the display may include active and/or passive leakage-mitigating structures. The passive leakage-mitigating structures may have an undercut that causes discontinuities in the overlying OLED layers. Active leakage-mitigating structures may include a conductive layer (e.g., a conductive ring) that drains leakage current to ground. Alternatively, the active leakage-mitigating structures may include a gate electrode modulator with a variable voltage that stops the current flow laterally.

Abstract: An organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display includes an array of OLED pixels and an array of organic photodetector (OPD) pixels. An OLED pixel in the array of OLED pixels includes an OLED hole transport layer (HTL), an OLED electron transport layer (ETL), and an emissive layer positioned between the OLED HTL and the OLED ETL. An OPD pixel in the array of OPD pixels includes the OLED HTL, the OLED ETL, and an electron donor material positioned between the OLED HTL and the OLED ETL, wherein the OLED ETL functions as an electron acceptor material for the OPD pixel. In other embodiments, the OPD pixel may be configured differently.

Abstract: An electronic device may have a display such as an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display. The OLED display may have an array of OLED pixels that each have OLED layers interposed between a cathode and an anode. The pixels may be microcavity OLED pixels having optical cavities. The optical cavities may be defined by a partially transparent cathode layer and a reflective anode structure. The distance between the partially transparent cathode layer and the reflective anode structure for a pixel may be selected such that light at the wavelength emitted by the pixel forms a standing wave between the anode and the cathode. The standing wave may have only one anti-node and the emissive layer for the pixel may be aligned with that one anti-node. To mitigate short circuits, a roughness reduction layer and/or short-circuit-reducing layer having a high sheet resistance may be formed between the anode the OLED layers.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with an ambient light sensor. The ambient light sensor may be a color ambient light sensor or a monochrome ambient light sensor. The electronic device may have a light-emitting component such as a display. During operation of the display, the display emits light. To reduce noise due to the emitted light while measuring ambient light, the ambient light sensor may have optical structures such as wave plates and polarizers. Theses optical structures may overlap light detectors. The optical structures may be configured to prevent ambient light from reaching a first of the light detectors while allowing ambient light to reach a second of the light detectors. The ambient light sensor may be configured to receive ambient light that has passed thorough an inactive area of a display or that has passed through a pixel array in an active area of a display.
