Abstract

Pixel layout and placement designs provide improved color gamut in a tiled flat-panel display. The subpixels of the pixel designs are sized, placed and geometrically shaped so that the color purity, or equal amounts of RGB, are emitted from the display. The pixel designs match the subpixel size with the color filter and spectral content of the illumination source. The layout and placement design of the color pixel elements does not significantly shift the color purity of each pixel of the tile that may be in plane misalignment with respect to aperture masks above and below the tiles in the display configurations.
