Abstract: A light-emitting structure includes a substrate, a sub-pixel stack, a cover layer over the sub-pixel stack, and at least one interface between the substrate and the cover layer. The at least one interface has an interface roughness. The sub-pixel stack includes an emissive layer between a first transport layer and a second transport layer, a first electrode layer coupled to the first transport layer, and a second electrode layer coupled to the second transport layer. The sub-pixel stack is over the substrate and configured to emit light including a scattering component caused by the interface roughness and a cavity component separate from the scattering component. A ratio of a luminance of the scattering component to a luminance of the cavity component increases with a viewing angle relative to a display normal. An optical power of the scattering component is a fraction of an optical power of the cavity component.

Abstract: An illumination system comprises a lightguide (12) having a plurality of light extraction features (LEFs); and a plurality of independently controllable light sources (11a, 11b, 11c). The LEFs have a preferred direction, with light that is incident on an LEF along the preferred direction of the LEF being extracted from the lightguide generally parallel to a reference plane, and light that is incident on an LEF not along the preferred direction of the LEF being extracted from the lightguide at an extraction angle to the reference plane, the extraction angle being related by a response function to an incidence angle between the light propagation direction and the preferred direction of LEF. The shape of the LEFs varies with distance from a reference point or respective reference point so that the response function becomes larger with increasing distance of the LEFs from the reference point.

The second-wavelength light is propagated to the first waveguide (101) at the first multiplexer (110). The third-wavelength light is propagated to the first waveguide (101) at the second multiplexer (120).

Abstract: A head mounted display device includes a switchable light source that is switched to emit light for generating at least one viewing zone, and a panel illumination unit illuminated by the light source. The panel illumination unit converges the light onto an image panel that selectively transmits light at different pixels to generate image content. An eye monitor measures information pertaining to an eye configuration of a user, and the image content is visible to the user when the eye is aligned with respect to the viewing zone. The panel illumination unit converges the light such that light emitted by the image panel converges into the viewing zone positioned based on the eye configuration information measured by the eye monitor, with limited divergence such that when the display device is worn by the user, the image panel is located at a distance from the user's eye closer than a distance where the eye can focus the pixels.
