Abstract
In a color display, a color filter layer includes a dielectric layer with an array of photonic crystals, an electroluminescent material disposed on the color filter layer, and electrodes arranged to electrically energize the electroluminescent material to output white light. Each photonic crystal includes a two-dimensional (2D) array of features. The 2D array of features includes a central cavity within which the features of the 2D array of features are omitted. Each photonic crystal is tuned to a resonant wavelength by a periodicity of the two-dimensional array of features. The array of photonic crystals may include, for example, red, green, and blue photonic crystals arranged to form an array of pixels spanning a display area of the color display, in which each pixel includes at least one red photonic crystal, at least one green photonic crystal, and at least one blue photonic crystal.
