Abstract

An enclosure is provided for housing pixels of a graphical display. The enclosure provides one or more laminar structures at a first surface of the enclosure. The laminar structure may be made up of a first material of a predetermined thickness at the first surface and a second material in sufficiently close proximity with the first material to allow heat conduction. The second material preferably has a thermal conductivity greater than the thermal conductivity of the first material. Thermal conductors are provided in or attached to the second material in the laminar structure to conduct heat to a second surface of the enclosure. The first material may be, for example, a polymer. The second material may be, for example, a heat wick, a metal mesh or heat pipes. The second surface may be cooled by an air stream, which may also reduce humidity at the surface.
