Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to flat optical devices and methods of forming flat optical devices. One embodiment includes a substrate having a first arrangement of a first plurality of pillars formed thereon. The first arrangement of the first plurality of pillars includes pillars having a height h and a lateral distance d, and a gap g corresponding to a distance between adjacent pillars of the first plurality of pillars. An aspect ratio of the gap g to the height h is between about 1:1 and about 1:20. A first encapsulation layer is disposed over the first arrangement of the first plurality of pillars. The first encapsulation layer has a refractive index of about 1.0 to about 1.5. The first encapsulation layer, the substrate, and each of the pillars of the first arrangement define a first space therebetween. The first space has a refractive index of about 1.0 to about 1.5.

Abstract: Exemplary subpixel structures include a directional light-emitting diode structure characterized by a full-width-half-maximum (FWHM) of emitted light having a divergence angle of less than or about 10°. The subpixel structure further includes a lens positioned a first distance from the light-emitting diode structure, where the lens is shaped to focus the emitted light from the light-emitting diode structure. The subpixel structure still further includes a patterned light absorption barrier positioned a second distance from the lens. The patterned light absorption barrier defines an opening in the barrier, and the focal point of the light focused by the lens is positioned within the opening. The subpixels structures may be incorporated into a pixel structure, and pixel structures may be incorporated into a display that is free of a polarizer layer.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to processes for filling trenches. The process includes depositing a first amorphous silicon layer on a surface of a layer and a second amorphous silicon layer in a portion of a trench formed in the layer, and portions of side walls of the trench are exposed. The first amorphous silicon layer is removed. The process further includes depositing a third amorphous silicon layer on the surface of the layer and a fourth amorphous silicon layer on the second amorphous silicon layer. The third amorphous silicon layer is removed. The deposition/removal cyclic processes may be repeated until the trench is filled with amorphous silicon layers. The amorphous silicon layers form a seamless amorphous silicon gap fill in the trench since the amorphous silicon layers are formed from bottom up.

Abstract: An organic light-emitting diode (OLED) deposition system includes two deposition chambers, a transfer chamber between the two deposition chambers, a metrology system having one or more sensors to perform measurements of the workpiece within the transfer chamber, and a control system to cause the system to form an organic light-emitting diode layer stack on the workpiece. Vacuum is maintained around the workpiece while the workpiece is transferred between the two deposition chambers and while retaining the workpiece within the transfer chamber. The control system is configured to cause the two deposition chambers to deposit two layers of organic material onto the workpiece, and to receive a first plurality of measurements of the workpiece in the transfer chamber from the metrology system.

Abstract: A display device includes a display layer having a plurality of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) separated by gaps, and an encapsulation layer covering a light-emitting side of the display layer. The encapsulation layer includes a bilayer having a plurality of polymer projections on the display layer, the plurality of polymer projections having spaces therebetween, and a first dielectric layer conformally covering the plurality of polymer projections and an underlying surface in the spaces between the polymer projections, the dielectric layer forming side walls along sides of the polymer projections. The side walls are aligned with the gaps between the OLEDS, and/or the encapsulation layer has multiple bilayers.

Abstract: A processing method comprises positioning a substrate in a processing chamber and setting a temperature of the substrate to a range of 50° C. to 500° C.; conducting an atomic layer deposition (ALD) cycle on the substrate; and repeating the ALD cycle to form a silicon oxide film. The ALD cycle comprises: exposing the substrate to an aminosilane precursor in the processing chamber by pulsing a flow of the aminosilane precursor; purging the processing chamber of the aminosilane precursor; exposing the substrate to an oxidizing agent by pulsing a flow of the oxidizing agent for a duration in a range of greater than or equal to 100 milliseconds to less than or equal to 3 seconds; and purging the processing chamber of the oxidizing agent.
