Abstract

A display may have pixels configured to display images. The pixels may be formed from thin-film transistor circuitry on a substrate. Color filter elements formed from colored polymer such as colored photoimageable polymer may be formed on the substrate. A black matrix formed from black photoimageable polymer may have an array of openings. The colored polymer may have first portions that overlap the black matrix and second portions in the openings that form the color filter elements. In some portions of the pixels, the thin-film transistor circuitry may be interposed between the first portions of the colored polymer and the black matrix. In other portions of the pixels, data lines may be formed that are overlapped by the black matrix and that are interposed between the first portions of the colored polymer and the black matrix.
