1. Motivation Microdisplay Applications

Data glasses

Pico projectors

Head-up displays

Sensors

Microdisplay demands Coloured

High brightness > 10.000 cd/m2

Low Power

High resolution

Small dimensions

Low priced manufacturing

1. Motivation Coloured vs. Brightness dilemma

State-of-the-art White OLED matrix + colour filter (CF)

2/3% loss of luminance by colour filtering

Colour filter transmission losses

Up to 80% reduction of brightness

Possible solution

Sub-pixel structuring of red, green & blue emitters

Reduction of colour filter losses

Use of efficient OLED stacks for each colour

Microdisplay without CF

Microdisplay with CF

2. Sub-pixel structuring process Flash-Mask-Transfer-Lithography

Transfer mask

Donor substrate

Patterned reflectors and absorbers

Absorber define the pixel geometry

Organic emitter is deposited on the top

Transfer process

Target aligned to the FMTL mask

Energy on the mask bottom

Material above the absorber is evaporated and transferred tothe target
