A method of fabricating a multi-color display includes forming a host matrix over a display having an array of light emitting diodes. The host matrix is sensitive to ultraviolet light. A first plurality of light emitting diodes in a first plurality of wells are activated to illuminate a portion of the host matrix to cause the portion of the host matrix to develop internal porous structures. A first photo-curable fluid including a first color conversion agent is dispensed. The first plurality of light emitting diodes in the first plurality of wells are activated to illuminate and cure the first photo-curable fluid to form a first color conversion layer over each of the first plurality of light emitting diodes, and an uncured remainder of the first photo-curable fluid is removed.

A white-light-transmitting composite film layer is provided with a medium layer and an indium coating, wherein the medium layer is closer to a white light source than the indium coating. The medium layer is a transparent coating containing 0.5-8% of a blue pigment and 0-2% of a purple pigment; or the medium layer is a transparent plastic film containing 0.5-8% of a blue pigment and 0-2% of a purple pigment. The white-light-transmitting composite film layer utilizes the principle of complementary colors in chromatics, and the special medium layer is attached to one side of the indium coating, so that the composite film layer can realize white light transmission, and the color temperature value of transmitted white light is 5200-7200 K.

An inkjet printing apparatus includes: a stage, which reciprocates in forward and reverse directions opposite to each other and has a target substrate disposed thereon; an inspection device including a film disposed outside the stage and a measurement unit which measures an inspection pattern provided on the film; and a head assembly, which moves along one direction crossing the forward direction and has a plurality of heads which supplies a liquid composition to the target substrate. The head assembly moves in the one direction to overlap the film and sprays the composition onto the film to form an inspection pattern.

An optical filter includes a first film having an upper surface, a lower surface, a first side, and a second side. A second film is included that has an upper surface, a lower surface, a first side, and a second side. A third film is included that has an upper surface, a lower surface, a first side, and a second side. The first side of the first film is connected to the second side of the second film. The first side of the second film is connected to the second side of the third film. The lower surface of the first film is optically adjacent to the upper surface of the second film. The lower surface of the second film is optically adjacent to the upper surface of the third film. Methods of manufacture and use are also described.

A method of drawing a material into sheet form includes forming a preform comprising at least one material as a large aspect ratio block wherein a first transverse dimension of the preform is much greater than a second transverse dimension substantially perpendicular to the first transverse dimension. A furnace having substantially linearly opposed heating elements one spaced from the other is provided and the heating elements are energized to apply heat to the preform to create a negative thermal gradient from an exterior surface along the first transverse dimension of the preform inward toward a central plane of the preform. The preform is drawn in such a manner that the material substantially maintains its first transverse dimension and deforms across its second transverse dimension.

Multi-spectral filter elements and methods of formation are disclosed. Each multi-spectral filter element may include a plurality of sub-filters that are, in some examples, each adapted to respond to electromagnetic radiation within respective ones of a plurality of spectral bands. A method example includes forming an optical cavity layer. Volume of the optical cavity layer can be reduced in at least N1 number of spatial regions. The reducing may include a number of selective removal steps equal to the binary logarithm function Log.sub.2 N. In this example, each spatial region corresponds to a respective one of the plurality sub-filters. The plurality of sub-filters includes at least N sub-filters. In particular examples, the respective ones of the plurality of spectral bands may be at least partially discrete with respect to each other.

A method of fabricating a color filter array including providing substrate, forming a multilevel structure that is attached to the substrate, etching the multilevel structure to expose first wells in the multilevel structure, filling at least the first wells in the multilevel structure with the first color component, curing the first color component, etching the multilevel structure to expose second wells in the multilevel structure, filling at least the second wells in the multilevel structure with a second color component, and curing the second color component.

Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for a backlight assembly for a display device. The backlight assembly includes a transparent waveguide layer, a plurality of light sources, and a tunable grating layer. The light sources are arranged along an edge of the waveguide layer. Each light source transmits light into the waveguide layer through the edge. The grating layer is coupled to the waveguide layer, and has multiple rows. Each row of the grating layer is segmented into a series of cells so the grating layer is sectioned into an array of cells. Each cell is independently controllable to either not extract incident light received from within the waveguide layer, or to extract the incident light for emission from the backlight assembly. In another configuration, the waveguide layer is not present, and the light sources transmit light directly into an edge of the grating layer.
