Transparent Micro-LED displays are emerging as a forefront technology that blends seamless integration with high performance. This innovative approach to display technology allows for vivid, bright images while maintaining transparency, making it ideal for augmented reality applications and transparent electronic devices.
This article explores the key technological advancements and material innovations that enable the production of transparent Micro-LED displays, discussing their potential applications and impact on future display solutions.
1. Innovative Transparent Micro-LED Display Technology for Augmented Viewing Experiences
BOE TECHNOLOGY GROUP CO., LTD., 2022
A transparent display panel with subpixels containing micro LEDs and transparent regions to enable both display content and external scene viewing. The transparent regions surround the opaque micro LEDs to allow light transmission. The display uses micro LEDs driven by integrated circuits for high brightness and efficiency. The transparent regions are made of materials like glass or organic insulating layers with openings matching the subpixel layout. This allows external light to pass through while blocking light emitted by the micro LEDs. The transparent display can be used in applications like augmented reality, vehicle displays, and transparent signage where viewers can see both the display and the surrounding environment.
2. Double-Sided Transparent Micro-LED Display Panel Technology
Century Micro Display Technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., 2020
Micro LED display panel with double-sided display capability. The panel has a thin film transistor (TFT) substrate with spaced apart micro LEDs on it. Unlike conventional micro LED displays that only show images from one side, this panel allows display on both sides. This is achieved by having the TFT circuitry on one side and the micro LEDs on the opposite side, enabling separate images to be displayed on each side. The panel can have electrical connections to the TFT and micro LEDs from both sides or through the substrate.
3. Dual-Sided Transparent Micro-LED Display Panel with Reduced Thickness
PLAYNITRIDE INC., 2020
Transparent display panel with dual-sided display capability that reduces thickness compared to using two separate displays. The panel has a transmissive substrate with top-emitting and bottom-emitting micro LEDs. The bottom LEDs have shields on their top surface to prevent light from being transmitted back into the substrate. A shielding layer between the top LEDs and substrate prevents light transmission in that direction as well. This allows separate images to be displayed on both sides of the panel without requiring two separate displays and reducing thickness compared to stacking displays.
