Aspects of the disclosure include light-emitting diodes (LEDs) formed without phosphor deformation during the lamination process. An exemplary method can include forming one or more LEDs on a backplane and forming a protective layer on the backplane. The protective layer can be patterned to define one or more trenches exposing sidewalls of a respective one LED of the one or more LEDs and a surface of the backplane. Each trench can be filled with a color-shifting coating. The method includes laminating the one or more LEDs, the backplane, the protective layer, and the color-shifting coating between one or more inner reinforcing layers and one or more outer layers to define a display.

A reflective display device includes a layer of pigment material that is divided into a plurality of pixels, the pigment material in each pixel displaying information by reflecting light. The reflective display device further includes a light source embedded in the layer of a pigment material, wherein the light source emits light that is reflected by the pigment material.

A window for a motor vehicle includes an inner glass pane, an outer glass pane, and a first display module having a first light source, a first light guide disposed between the inner glass pane and the outer glass pane and configured to receive light from the first light source, a second light source, and a second light guide disposed between the inner glass pane and the outer glass pane and configured to receive light from the second light source. When the first light source is activated a first signal is displayed through the first light guide, when the second light source is activated a second signal is displayed through the second light guide, and when the first light source and the second light source are activated a third signal is displayed through the first light guide and the second light guide.

A method for manufacturing a light emitting diode (LED) display includes providing a template having keyed holes disposed in the template, depositing keyed LED's onto the template manipulating the keyed LED's such that each of the keyed LED's fits within a corresponding keyed hole in the template, and transferring the keyed LED's onto a circuit board.
