Abstract

A color OLED display includes an array of light emitting pixels, each pixel having three light emitting elements for emitting red, green, and blue colors of light specifying a gamut and at least one additional element for emitting a color of light within the gamut and wherein the power efficiency of the additional element is higher than the power efficiency of at least one of the red, green, and blue elements; and wherein the light emitting elements in the pixel are arranged in a two-by-two array having the green light emitting element and the additional element diagonally opposed to each other at two opposite corners of the two-by-two array and having the red and blue light emitting elements diagonally opposed to each other at the other two opposite corners of the two-by-two array, and wherein the additional element is larger than at least one of the red, green or blue light emitting elements.
