Subpixel layouts and arrangements for high brightness displays
View Patent ↗High brightness displays comprising subpixel repeating groups having at least white with a number of colored subpixels are disclosed. Colored subpixels may comprise: red, blue, green, cyan or magenta in these various embodiments.
1. A display substantially comprising a subpixel repeating group, said subpixel repeating group comprising one of a first group, said first group comprising one of the following:
WGBR
BRWG,
WBGR
GRWB,
WMWC WBWC
WGWR WGWR
WCWM WCWB
WRWG, WRWG,

CBRG RGRG,
BWGWR WGWR
RWBWG WRWG
GWRWB, WRWG and
wherein W is substantially white, G is substantially green, R is substantially red, B is substantially blue, C is substantially cyan, and M is substantially magenta color.
2. The display of claim 1 wherein further the white subpixels are substantially of smaller size than the colored subpixels.
3. The display of claim 1 wherein said colored subpixels comprise substantially a first aspect ratio and said white subpixels comprise a second aspect ratio.
4. The display of claim 3 wherein said first aspect ratio is 1:2 and said second aspect ratio is 1:3.
5. The display of claim 4 wherein the backlight output is reduced such that brightness with all subpixels on fully is substantially the same brightness as an RGB stripe panel comprising substantially the same resolution.
6. The display of claim 1 wherein said colored subpixels and said white subpixels comprise substantially the same aspect ratio.
7. The display of claim 1 wherein said subpixels are substantially rectangular shape.
8. The display of claim 1 wherein the repeating subpixel group may comprise one of a second group, said second group further comprising: mirror images of repeating groups comprising said first group; symmetrical transformations of repeating groups comprising said first group and hex grid transformations of repeating groups comprising said first group.
9. The display of claim 1 wherein said display is a liquid crystal display and the black matrix is substantially above the disinclination region.
10. The display of claim 9 wherein the black matrix comprises differentially more area above the disinclination regions for the brighter subpixels.
11. The display of claim 1 wherein said display further comprises a backlight and the color temperature of said backlight adjusted such that a balanced white color is displayed with all subpixels on fully.
12. The display of claim 1 wherein said at least one of the colored filters is selected to be a narrow bandpass filter.
13. The display of claim 1 wherein the white subpixels are vertically displaced substantially 180 degrees with respect to the colored subpixels.
14. A display substantially comprising a subpixel repeating group, said subpixel repeating group comprising one of a first group, said first group comprising one of the following:
