Abstract

A multi-color emissive display is presented with printed light modifier structures. A fabrication method provides an emissive substrate with a plurality of wells formed in the emissions substrate top surface, and a plurality of emissive elements populating the wells. The method prints light modifier structures overlying the emissive elements. Some examples of light modifier material include light scattering materials, phosphors, and quantum dots. In one aspect, the emissive substrate wells have a first shape, with sidewalls and a first perimeter. Likewise, the emissive elements have the first shape, with sides and a second perimeter, less than the first perimeter. The light modifier structures fill the space between the emissive element sides and the well sidewalls with light modifier material. If the first shape is circular, the method prints the light modifier structures overlying the emissive elements in the circular shape having a first diameter defined by the well sidewalls.
