Abstract

A display including a red subpixel, a green subpixel, a blue subpixel and a fourth subpixel including a teal subpixel or a saturated green pixel and an LED light source. Liquid crystal display devices including U 6+ -containing phosphors are also provided. Applications for the display include televisions, mobile phones and computer monitors.

Claims (22)

1 . A display comprising a red subpixel, a green subpixel, a blue subpixel and a fourth subpixel comprising a teal subpixel or a saturated green subpixel and an LED light source.

2 . The display according to claim 1 , wherein the display is a liquid crystal display and the display further comprises a liquid crystal display panel and the LED light source comprises one or more LED backlight units, wherein the one or more LED backlight units comprise a combination of a blue LED optically coupled to a U 6+ -containing phosphor and a red phosphor.

3 . The display according to claim 2 , wherein the U 6+ -containing phosphor and the red phosphor are disposed on at least a portion of the blue LED or located remotely from the blue LED.

4 . The display according to claim 3 , wherein the green U 6+ -containing phosphor and the red phosphor are in the form of a film or a slurry.

5 . The display according to claim 4 , wherein the blue LED is a miniLED or a micro LED.

6 . The display according to claim 2 , wherein the U 6+ -containing phosphor has a peak line emission at a wavelength range from about 470 nm to about 505 nm with a full width at half maximum of not more than 5 nm or a peak line emission at a wavelength range from about 505 nm to about 25 nm and a full width at half maximum of not more than 5 nm.

7 . The display according to claim 2 , wherein the U 6+ -containing phosphor is selected from the group consisting of: BaZn 2 (PO 4 ) 2 :U 6+ , BaBPO 5 :U 6+ , K 3 UO 2 F 5 , K 2 (UO 2 )(SO 4 ) 2 -2H 2 O, Cs 2 (UO 2 ) 2 (SO 4 ) 3 , BaZnUO 2 (PO 4 ) 2 , BaMgUO 2 (PO 4 ) 2 , Ba 3 (PO 4 ) 2 (UO 2 ) 2 P 2 O 7 and Sr 3 P 4 O 13 :U 6+ .

8 . The display according to claim 2 , wherein the red phosphor comprises a Mn 4+ -doped complex fluoride having formula I: A 2 (MF 6 ):Mn 4+ , wherein A is Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs or a combination thereof M is Si, Ge, Sn, Ti, Zr, Al, Ga, In, Sc, Hf, Y, La, Nb, Ta, Bi, Gd, or a combination thereof.

9 . (canceled)

10 . The display according to claim 2 , wherein the red phosphor is selected from the group consisting of: K 2 (SiF 6 ):Mn 4+ , K 2 (TiF 6 ):Mn 4+ , K 2 (SnF 6 ):Mn 4+ , Cs 2 (TiF 6 ):Mn 4+ , Rb 2 (TiF 6 ):Mn 4+ , Cs 2 (SiF 6 ):Mn 4+ , Rb 2 (SiF 6 ):Mn 4+ , Na 2 (SiF 6 ):Mn 4+ , Na 2 (TiF 6 ):Mn 4+ , Na 2 (ZrF 6 ):Mn 4+ , K 3 (ZrF 7 ):Mn 4+ , K 3 (BiF 6 ):Mn 4+ , K 3 (LaF 6 ):Mn 4+ , K 3 (LaF 6 ):Mn 4+ , K 3 (GdF 6 ):Mn 4+ , K 3 (NbF 7 ):Mn 4+ , and K 3 (TaF 7 ):Mn 4+ .

11 . The display according to claim 1 , wherein the fourth subpixel comprises a teal subpixel and the U 6+ -containing phosphor has a line emission at a wavelength range from about 470 nm to about 505 nm with a full width at half maximum of not more than 5 nm.

12 . The display according to claim 1 , wherein the fourth subpixel comprises a saturated green pixel and the U 6+ -containing phosphor has a line emission at a wavelength range from about 505 nm to about 25 nm with a full width at half maximum of not more than 5 nm.

13 . A display device for producing a color image, the display device comprising an LED backlight unit, a liquid crystal display panel and a pixel comprising a red subpixel, a green subpixel, a blue subpixel and a teal subpixel or a saturated green subpixel, wherein the LED backlight unit emits a white light and comprises a combination of a blue LED optically and/or radiationally coupled to a U 6+ -containing phosphor and a red phosphor.

14 . The display device according to claim 13 , wherein the pixel comprises a teal subpixel and the LCD panel comprises a four color filter comprising a red filter, a green filter, a blue filter and a teal filter, to split the white light from the LED backlight unit into a red color point, a green color point, a blue color point and a teal color point, respectively, the four color points defining a color space of the display, the color space having a D65 white point and wherein a tie line between the teal color point and the red color point is below the D65 white point, wherein the U 6+ -containing phosphor has a line emission in the wavelength of about 470 nm to about 505 nm and a full width at half maximum of no more than 5nm.

15 . The display device according to claim 13 , wherein the red phosphor comprises perovskite quantum dots materials.

16 . The display device according to claim 13 , wherein the teal subpixel comprises cyan, turquoise, electric blue, aquamarine, and other blue-green colors, and is produced by applying a teal color filter having an emission in the range of from about 460 nm to about 550 nm to the white light from the LED backlight unit.

17 . The display device according to claim 13 , wherein the saturated green subpixel is produced by applying a saturated green color filter having an emission in the range of from about 505nm to about 25 nm.

18 . A television comprising the display device of claim 13 .

19 . A mobile phone comprising the display device of claim 13 .
