  • Patent number: 10535840
    Abstract: A display may have an array of pixels. Each pixel may have a light-emitting diode such as an organic light-emitting diode. The organic light-emitting diodes may each have a reflective electrode such as a metal anode and a partially reflective electrode such as a metal cathode. Emissive material may be formed between the electrodes. The electrodes of each organic light-emitting diode may form an optical cavity. A wrinkled layer may be formed over the optical cavity to reduce sensitivity to process variations associated with forming encapsulation structures for the display. The wrinkled layer may include annealed organic layers. The organic layers may wrinkle during an annealing process at an annealing temperature. The annealed organic layers may include a first organic layer with a glass transition temperature below the annealing temperature and a second organic layer with a glass transition temperature above the annealing temperature.

  • Patent number: 9151995
    Abstract: The present invention provides a polymer stabilization alignment liquid crystal display panel having a plurality of pixel regions defined by plurals of data lines and gate lines. Each pixel region includes a main region and a sub region, and a first pixel electrode and a second pixel electrode correspond to the main region and the sub region respectively, wherein each of the data lines has a first width adjacent to the main display region and a second width adjacent to the sub display region, and the second width is larger than the first width. Each first pixel electrode is separated from the adjacent data line and thereby forming a gap therebetween. Each second pixel electrode partially overlaps the adjacent data line to form an overlap width. Accordingly, the present invention not only can increase the aperture ratio, but also well control the liquid crystal molecules located near the data lines.
