Abstract: A display may include an array of pixels such as light-emitting diode pixels. The pixels may include multiple circuitry decks that each include one or more circuit components such as transistors, capacitors, and/or resistors. The circuitry decks may be vertically stacked. Each circuitry deck may include a planarization layer formed from a siloxane material that conforms to underlying components and provides a planar upper surface. In this way, circuitry components may be vertically stacked to mitigate the size of each pixel footprint. The circuitry components may include capacitors that include both a high-k dielectric layer and a low-k dielectric layer. The display pixel may include a via with a width of less than 1 micron.

Abstract: A display may include an array of pixels. Each pixel in the array includes an organic light-emitting diode coupled to associated semiconducting oxide transistors. The semiconducting oxide transistors may exhibit different device characteristics. Some of the semiconducting oxide transistors may be formed using a first oxide layer formed from a first semiconducting oxide material using first processing steps, whereas other semiconducting oxide transistors are formed using a second oxide layer formed from a second semiconducting oxide material using second processing steps different than the first processing steps. The display may include three or more different semiconducting oxide layers formed during different processing steps.

Abstract: A display may have organic light-emitting diode pixels formed from thin-film circuitry. The thin-film circuitry may be formed in thin-film transistor (TFT) layers and the organic light-emitting diodes may include anodes and cathodes and an organic emissive layer formed over the TFT layers between the anodes and cathodes. The organic emissive layer may be formed via chemical evaporation techniques. The display may include moisture blocking structures such as organic emissive layer disconnecting structures that introduce one or more gaps in the organic emissive layer during evaporation so that any potential moisture permeating path from the display panel edge to the active area of the display is completely terminated.

Abstract: An electronic device may include a display and an optical sensor formed underneath the display. A pixel removal region on the display may at least partially overlap with the sensor. The pixel removal region may include a plurality of non-pixel regions each of which is devoid of thin-film transistors. The plurality of non-pixel regions is configured to increase the transmittance of light through the display to the sensor. In addition to removing thin-film transistors in the pixel removal region, additional layers in the display stack-up may be removed. In particular, a cathode layer, polyimide layer, and/or substrate in the display stack-up may be patterned to have an opening in the pixel removal region. A polarizer may be bleached in the pixel removal region for additional transmittance gains. The cathode layer may be removed using laser ablation with a spot laser or blanket illumination.

The protective sidewall structures may help prevent corrosion in the core metal layer. Surface treatments such as oxidation, nitridation, and other processes may be used in forming the protective sidewall structures.

A preferred embodiment includes a raised UBM which extends through a passivation layer so as to make contact with a contact pad while retaining enough of the passivation layer between the contact pad and the UBM to adequately handle the peeling and shear stress that results from CTE mismatch and subsequent thermal processing. The UBM contact is preferably formed in either an octagonal ring shape or an array of contacts.
