Abstract
A light emitting structure comprises a bank surrounding a sub-pixel stack on a substrate, a first filler material in an interior space above the sub-pixel stack, and a second filler material over the first filler material. The sub-pixel stack emits a first emission peak along an on-axis direction substantially normal to a top surface of the sub-pixel stack and through an interface between the first and second filler materials. The sub-pixel stack emits a second emission peak along an off-axis direction that is totally internally reflected by the interface before reaching a sloped sidewall of the bank and is then emitted along the on-axis direction. An emissive area of the sub-pixel stack is configured such that the second emission peak is reflected by the interface not more than once before reaching the sloped sidewall.
