Description:
ROLLABLE LASER PHOSPHOR DISPLAYS, METHODS OF FORMING A SHEET, AND METHODS OF FORMING A COLOR CONVERTER SHEET

CROSS REFERENCES TO RELATED APPLICATION

[0001] This application claims the benefit of priority under 35 U.S.C. §119 of U.S. Provisional Application Serial No.: 63/317584 filed on March 8, 2022, the content of which is relied upon and incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

FIELD

[0002] The present disclosure relates generally to rollable laser phosphor displays, methods of forming a sheet, and methods of forming a color converter sheet and, more particularly, rollable laser phosphor displays configured to roll into a rolled configuration and unroll into a planar configuration, methods of forming a sheet comprising removing a plurality of portions of a mask, methods of forming a color converter sheet comprising removing a plurality of portions of a mask, and method of forming a color converter sheet comprising a plurality of capillaries.

BACKGROUND

[0003] Glass-based substrates are commonly used, for example, in display devices, for example, liquid crystal displays (LCDs), electrophoretic displays (EPD), organic light-emitting diode displays (OLEDs), plasma display panels (PDPs), laser phosphor displays (LPDs), or the like. It is known to use color converter sheets in LPDs.

[0004] There is a desire to develop increasingly larger displays (e.g., LPDs) that can be easily transported and assembled while providing a uniform viewing surface. There is a desire to develop methods to more efficiently form color converter sheets used in displays (e.g., LPDs).

SUMMARY

[0005] There are set forth herein a rollable laser phosphor display and methods of forming a rollable laser phosphor display. Providing a rollable laser phosphor display can enable a rolled rollable laser phosphor display to be contained in a relatively small package relative to its unrolled (e.g., planar) configuration. For example, a rollable laser phosphor display can be beneficial for storage and/or transportation of the rollable laser phosphor display, which can enable larger laser phosphor display viewing areas to be sold directly to consumers. Providing an interlocking mechanism can enable the rollable laser phosphor display to be secured in an unrolled (e.g., planar) configuration for viewing.

[0006] The rollable laser phosphor display can comprise a plurality of elongated sections, which enable the rollable laser phosphor display to be rolled. Providing a cover substrate extending across the plurality of elongated sections can provide a smooth (e.g., planar) surface for avoiding optical distortions while viewing the rollable laser phosphor display. Providing the cover substrate and/or a substrate of a color converter sheet of an elongated comprising a glass-based substrate or a ceramic-based substrate can provide good dimensional stability, reduced incidence of mechanical instabilities, good impact resistance, and/or good puncture resistance.

[0007] An elongated section (e.g., each elongated section) of the plurality of elongated sections can be a self-contained laser phosphor display comprising a color converter sheet and a plurality of light sources configured to scan the color converter sheet. Providing a plurality of elongated sections comprising a color converter sheet and at least one light source in a spaced relationship can enable straightforward assembly (e.g., unrolling and/or interlocking the plurality of the elongated sections), for example, by the consumer without requiring special assembly or professional installation. Providing a plurality of light sources in an elongated section where each light source is configured to scan a non-overlapping target scan area can reduce a depth of the elongated section and the rollable elongated section, which reduces an area required to place, store, and/or transport the rollable laser phosphor display.

[0008] Color converter sheets (e.g., in a rollable laser phosphor display, in an LED device) can comprise one or more gaps (e.g., air gaps, evacuated space) at a surface of a photoluminescent phosphor or a quantum dot layer, which can increase an efficiency (e.g., luminance, conversion efficiency, extraction efficiency) of the color converter sheet and/or increase a directionality (e.g., local dimming index, image clarity, perceived brightness) of an image viewed from a display comprising the color converter sheet. Providing a material capable of undergoing sublimation can be used to form the one or more gaps by acting as a spacer during methods of making the color converter sheet, where the material can be removed by sublimation later in the methods. Providing one or more adhesive layers (e.g., optically clear adhesive) can enable the color converter sheet to be manufactured from separated fabricated substrates and walls. Providing walls comprising reflective material between pixel and/or sub-pixels of a color converter sheet can increase an efficiency (e.g., luminance, extraction efficiency) of the color converter sheet and/or provide isolation of the light in one sub-pixel from adjacent sub-pixels. Providing a material comprising a polymer and a metallic component that can be cured such that the polymer is surrounded by a metal layer can simplify fabrication of the reflective walls. Providing the dichroic mirror can reduce spurious emissions from the color converter sheet, and/or increase an efficiency of (e.g., brightness emitted from) the color converter sheet.

[0009] Methods of forming a sheet (e.g., color converter sheet) can comprise sequentially exposing sections of a substrate to enable efficient deposition of components. For example, a planar device can be formed by sequentially exposing sections of a substrate, where a different component is disposed in each section. Sequentially exposing sections of a substrate can eliminate wasted material of a component, for example, by reducing the material disposed relative to an amount of material in the final product. Further, physically separated sections of a substrate can be exposed at the same time, where each exposed section is to have the same components disposed on thereon can simplify and/or streamline manufacturing. For example, in methods of making a color converter sheet, sections corresponding to red sub-pixels can be exposed at the same time followed by exposing sections corresponding to green subpixels and/or then exposing a section corresponding to blue sub-pixels. Moreover, deposition methods can be simplified for each exposed section, for example, enabling using of a doctor blade (e.g., squeegee) rather than more complex, time-intensive, and/or labor-intensive deposition methods. Also, using a negative photoresist in manufacturing reflective walls in a component of a display device (e.g., color converter sheet) can simplify manufacturing by taking advantage of an existing absorptive material disposed on a substrate to pattern and align spaces for the reflective walls. [0010] Methods of forming a color converter sheet can comprise drawing material into one or more capillaries (e.g., applying a vacuum to suction material from an ink bath). Providing a plurality of capillaries with both ends exposed can enable multiple capillaries to be filled with material simultaneously. While a plurality of capillaries is exposed and filled, another plurality of capillaries can be capped (e.g., sealed) at one end to prevent those capillaries from being filled. Sequentially rotating which capillaries are open at both ends versus capped (e.g., at least one end) can enable multiple materials to be loaded into corresponding pluralities of capillaries. For example with a color converter sheet, capillaries corresponding to red sub-pixels can be filled by applying a vacuum while capillaries corresponding to blue sub-pixels and green sub-pixels are capped at one end. The capillaries can be formed by attaching a plurality of walls to a first substrate and a second substrate (e.g., using one or more optically clear adhesive(s)). Filling a plurality of capillaries extending a length or width of the color converter sheet can result in a stripe pattern color converter sheet with reduced processing complexity. Filling the plurality of capillaries using a vacuum can reduce processing time, for example, with three vacuum steps to fill all the capillaries.

[0011] Methods of forming a color converter sheet can generate a plurality of capillaries by wrapping a wire around a spindle. Providing a spindle with a second recess opposite the first recess can enable multiple (e.g., 2) color converter sheets to be manufactured substantially simultaneously using the same spindle (e.g., spindle apparatus) and the same plurality of substantially parallel traces, which increases efficiency both in terms of time and space requirements as well as in terms of material costs. Providing a taught wire (e.g., plurality of traces) can reduce material costs and provide traces (e.g., walls) in substantial registration with the absorptive material between adjacent pairs of color filters.

[0012] Methods of forming a color converter sheet can comprise attaching a plurality of yams comprising a photoluminescent material and a metallic layer together. Methods can enable mass production of the yams as a metallized sheet that can be formed and then separated into a plurality of yams. The yams can be loaded on a spool comprising a plurality of grooves. Providing a spacing distance between adjacent grooves in the first spool and/or between adjacent first yams can position the yams such that they can be easily combined with a second set of second and a third set of yams to form a color converter sheet with minimal complexity or complications. Providing a difference in offset distances between the first spool, the second spool, and/or the third spool can reduce complexity and/or complications associated with combining the yams on the different spools together.

[0013] Some example aspects of the disclosure are described below with the understanding that any of the features of the various aspects may be used alone or in combination with one another.

[0014] Aspect 1. A rollable laser phosphor display comprises a plurality of elongated sections. Each elongated section comprises a color converter sheet comprising a plurality of pixels. The elongated section comprises a plurality of light sources arranged in a row. Each light source is positioned to scan a corresponding target scan area of a first surface area of the color converter sheet.

[00117] The first adhesive layer 511 can comprise a first refractive index. The first refractive index may be a function of a wavelength of light passing through the first adhesive layer 511. For light of a first wavelength, a refractive index of a material is defined as the ratio between the speed of light in a vacuum and the speed of light in the corresponding material. Without wishing to be bound by theory, a refractive index of the first adhesive layer 511 can be determined using a ratio of a sine of a first angle to a sine of a second angle, where light of the first wavelength is incident from air on a surface of the first adhesive layer 511 at the first angle and refracts at the surface of the first adhesive layer 511 to propagate light within the first adhesive layer 511 at a second angle. The first angle and the second angle are both measured relative to a direction normal to a surface of the first adhesive layer 511. As used herein, the refractive index is measured in accordance with ASTM El 967- 19, where the first wavelength comprises 589 nm, unless indicated otherwise.

Providing a second adhesive layer 603 comprising a refractive index less than a refractive index of the one or more photoluminescent material 533a, 533b, and/or 533c can reduce reflection and/or scattering of light incident on the second adhesive layer 603.

As used herein, a dichroic mirror is configured to allow light with a wavelength within one or more wavelength ranges of light to pass in one direction while reflecting light in the other direction. For example, with reference to FIGS. 6 and 63, the dichroic mirror 631 can be configured to allow light emitted from the light source (e.g., plurality of light sources 241, 241b shown in FIG. 3) (e.g., ultraviolet light, blue light) through the first substrate 211a (e.g., incident on the incident on the seventh surface area 633 of the dichroic mirror) to be transmitted through the dichroic mirror 631 while reflecting light transmitted from the color converter (e.g., photoluminescent materials 533a, 533b, and/or 533c) (e.g., incident on the eighth surface area 635 of the dichroic mirror 631). In further aspects, as shown, the dichroic mirror 631 can be positioned between the plurality of color converters (e.g., photoluminescent materials 533a, 533b, and/or 533c) and the first substrate 211a. In even further aspects, the dichroic mirror 631 can contact (e.g., be disposed on) the first substrate 211a (e.g., second major surface 217a). In further aspects, as shown, a dichroic thickness 639 of the dichroic mirror 631 can be defined as an average distance between the seventh surface area 633 and the eighth surface area 635. Providing the dichroic mirror can reduce spurious emissions from the color converter sheet, and/or increase an efficiency of (e.g., brightness emitted from) the color converter sheet.

[00121] In aspects, as shown in FIGS. 5-6 and 63, the color converter sheet 501, 601, and/or 6301 can comprise a second gap 523a, 523b, and/or 523c positioned between the photoluminescent material 533a, 533b, and/or 533c and either: (i) the first substrate 211a, (ii) the first adhesive layer 511, or (iii) the dichroic mirror 631. In further aspects, the second gap 523a, 523b, and/or 523c can comprise a gas (e.g., air, oxygen, nitrogen, noble gas (e.g., argon)) or evacuated space. In further aspects, the second gap 523a, 523b, and/or 523c can comprise a second gap thickness 529 measured as an average distance between the first surface area 535a, 535b, and/or 535c and the closer of (i) the second major surface 217a of the first substrate 211a, (ii) the second contact surface 517 of the first adhesive layer 511, and (iii) the eighth surface area 635 of the dichroic mirror 631 if present. In further aspects, the second gap thickness 529 can be within one or more of the ranges discussed above for the first gap thickness 549. In further aspects, as shown in FIG. 63, the second gap thickness 529 can be created by a plurality of second spacers 6311a, 6311b, and/or 6311c. Providing a second gap 523a, 523b, and/or 523c can increase an efficiency (e.g., luminance, conversion efficiency, extraction efficiency) of the color converter sheet and/or increase a directionality (e.g., local dimming index, image clarity) of an image viewed from a display comprising the color converter sheet. For example, providing the second gap can reduce scattering at the first surface area 535a, 535b, and/or 535c of the plurality of photoluminescent materials 533a, 533b, and/or 533c. For example, providing the second gap can increase a fraction of light emitted from the first surface area 535a, 535b, and/or 535c of the plurality of photoluminescent materials 533a, 533b, and/or 533c comprising a substantially normal angle of incidence on the second major surface 217a, which can increase a perceived brightness of the color converter sheet.

In further aspects, although not shown, the plurality of light sources 241a or 241b can be arranged in a row.

In further aspects, a light source of the plurality of light sources 241a or 241b can comprise a laser or a light-emitting diode. In further aspects, a light source of the plurality of light sources 241a or 241b can be configured to emit ultraviolet light (e.g., comprising a wavelength of about 430 nm or less) or blue light (e.g., comprising a wavelength in a range from about 430 nm to about 490 nm).

In still further aspects, the boundaries 243a and 243b can be configured such that an entire width of the color converter sheet 261a and/or the first substrate 211a or 211b is encompassed within the range 245, although the boundaries 243a and 243b can be configured such that only a portion (i.e., in a direction of the width) (e.g., about 50% or less, about 33% or less) is within the range 245, for example, when the plurality of light sources 241a comprises a plurality of rows within a frame 251a. In further aspects, although not shown, a controller can be configured to scan a light source of the plurality of light sources across the target scan area and/or toggle the light source on/off (e.g., while scanning across the target scan area), for example, to generate an image to be displayed. For example, the light source 241a or 241b can emit light of a first wavelength travelling along ray 247a or 247b that is configured to impinge the first substrate 211a or 211b and then a sub-pixel 233b comprising a photoluminescent material (see 533b in FIGS. 5-6 and 63), and the photoluminescent material of the subpixel 233b can be configured to emit light of a second wavelength travelling along ray 249a or 249b through a cover sheet 203 and a viewer.

In even further aspects, as shown, a plurality of target scan areas can cover an entire surface area of a color converter sheet in a non-overlapping manner. Providing a plurality of light sources in an elongated section where each light source is configured to scan a non-overlapping target scan area can reduce a depth of the elongated section and the rollable elongated section, which reduces an area required to place, store, and/or transport the rollable laser phosphor display.

[00132] As shown in FIG. 2, the cover sheet 203 (e.g., sixth major surface 207) can be attached to and/or contact the fourth major surface 237a and/or 237b of the second substrate 231a and/or 231b (e.g., of the color converter sheet 261a and/or 261b). In aspects, as shown, the cover sheet 203 can extend across the fourth major surface 237a and/or 237b of the second substrate 231a and/or 231b (e.g., of the color converter sheet 261a and/or 261b) of the plurality of elongated sections (e.g., extend across a surface of the color converter sheet of each elongated section of the plurality of elongated sections). Providing a cover substrate extending across the plurality of elongated sections can provide a smooth (e.g., planar) surface for avoiding optical distortions while viewing the rollable laser phosphor display. Providing the cover substrate and/or a substrate of a color converter sheet as a glass-based substrate or a ceramic-based substrate can provide good dimensional stability, reduced incidence of mechanical instabilities, good impact resistance, and/or good puncture resistance.

In aspects, the interlocking mechanism 105 can be configured to allow adjacent elongated sections to rotate relative to one another. In further aspects, as shown in FIG. 2, the interlocking mechanism 105 can comprise one or more hinges 271 rotatably coupling the adjacent elongated sections. Providing an interlocking mechanism can enable the rollable laser phosphor display to be secured in an unrolled (e.g., planar) configuration for viewing.

[00134] In further aspects, the interlocking mechanism 105 (e.g., one or hinges 271) can enable the adjacent elongated sections to rotate between angles 273 ranging from 0° to a maximum angle, for example, about 20° or more, about 30° or more, about 40° or more, about 50° or more, or about 60° or more. In further aspects, although not shown, the interlocking mechanism 105 can further comprise a mated pair 275a and 275b that interlock when the angle 273 is about 0° and prevent free rotation about the one or more hinges 271. As used herein, the angle 273 refers to the smallest angle between adjacent elongated sections about the interlocking mechanism. In further aspects, the interlocking mechanism 105 (e.g., one or more hinges 271) can be configured to enable an angle 213 between a third major surface 235a of the second substrate 231a a color converter sheet 261a and a third major surface 235b of the second substrate 231b of an adjacent color converter sheet 261b to go between a minimum angle and a maximum angle, where an arc formed by the angle passing through the cover sheet 203 exactly two times. In further aspects, the minimum angle can be about 90° or more, about 120° or more, about 130° or more, about 140° or more, about 160° or less, or about 150° or less. In further aspects, the minimum angle can be in a range from about 90° to about 160°, from about 120° to about 160°, from about 130° to about 160°, from about 140° to about 150°, or any range or subrange therebetween. In further aspects, the maximum angle can be about 178° or more, about 179° or more, about 182° or less, about 181° or less, or about 180° or less. In further aspects, the maximum angle can be in a range from about 178° to about 182°, from about 179° to about 181°, from about 179° to about 180°, or any range or subrange therebetween.

[00135] As shown in FIGS. 3-4, the rollable laser phosphor display 301 can comprise a substantially planar configuration (e.g., planar configuration) where the plurality of elongated sections are interlocked. Throughout the disclosure, the planar configuration refers to when the angle 273 is about 0° (e.g., 1° or less - corresponding to an angle between a surface area of adjacent color converter sheets is from about 179° to about 181°) and/or when the mated pair 275a and 275b are engaged (e.g., interlocked). As shown in FIG. 3, the rollable laser phosphor display 301 can comprise a display portion 303 and an optional border 305 circumscribing the display portion 303. Through the disclosure, a maximum dimension of the rollable laser phosphor display in the substantially planar configuration refers to a maximum dimension across a surface of the display portion of the rollable laser phosphor display in the substantially planar configuration. With reference to FIG. 3, the maximum dimension 307 of the rollable laser phosphor display 301 is the maximum dimension across a surface 309 of the display portion 303 corresponding to a diagonal from one comer to an opposite comer of the display portion 303. As used herein, the substantially planar configuration of the rollable laser phosphor display 301 refers to when an angle 273 between adjacent pairs of elongated sections is about 0° (e.g., 1° or less - corresponding to an angle between the third major surfaces 235a and 235b of adjacent second substrates 231a is from about 179° to about 181°) and/or the mated pair 275a and 275b are interlocked. As shown in FIG. 4, the plurality of elongated sections 103a-1031 are arranged side-by-side to form the display portion 303 of the rollable laser phosphor display 301 in the substantially planar configuration. In aspects, the maximum dimension 307 of the rollable laser phosphor display 301 in the substantially planar configuration can be about 1 meter (m) or more, about 2 m or more, about 2.5 m or more, about 3 m or more, about 10 m or less, about 5 m or less, or about 4 m or less. In aspects, the maximum dimension 307 of the rollable laser phosphor display 301 in the substantially planar configuration can be in a range from about 1 m to about 10 m, from about 2 m to about 5 m, from about 2.5 m to about 4 m, from about 3 m to about 4 m, or any range or subrange therebetween. In aspects, a width of the optional border 305, if present, can be about 5 mm or more, about 10 mm or more, about 50 mm or less, or about 20 mm or less. In aspects, a width of the optional border 305, if present, can be in a range from about 5 mm to about 50 mm, from about 10 mm to about 20 mm, or any range or subrange therebetween. Providing an optional border can ensure that the portions of the color converter sheet are not affected by any permeation of air and/or moisture from sides of the color converter sheet, for example, if the color converter sheet comprises a quantum dot. For example, if the color converter sheet comprises a stripe pattern oriented from top to bottom (in the orientation shown in FIG. 4), the optional border can prevent any permeation of air and/or moisture along the stripes from impacting a quality of the display device (e.g., color converter sheet) in the display area 303.

[00136] As shown in FIGS. 1-2, the rollable laser phosphor display 101 can comprise a rolled configuration where the plurality of elongated sections are not interlocked. Throughout the disclosure, the rolled configuration refers to a configuration with a smallest maximum dimension that the rollable laser phosphor display can be held for 1 day at 25°C and subsequently unrolled to the substantially planar configuration without visible damage (e.g., cracking, creasing, warping, delamination). It is to be understood that the rollable laser phosphor display 101 in the rolled configuration (as shown in FIGS. 1-2) can be unrolled to achieve the rollable laser phosphor display 301 in the substantially planar configuration (as shown in FIGS. 3-4) and that the rollable laser phosphor display 301 in the substantially planar configuration (as shown in FIGS. 3-4) can be rolled to achieve the rollable laser phosphor display 101 in the rolled configuration (as shown in FIGS. 1-2). In aspects, when in the rolled configuration, the angle 213 between the third major surface 235a of adjacent second substrates 231a and 231b (e.g., adjacent color converter sheets 261a and 261b) can be within one or more of the ranges discussed above for the minimum angle (e.g., from about 130° to about 160° or any range or subrange therebetween).

[00137] Throughout the disclosure, a maximum dimension of the rollable laser phosphor display in the rolled configuration corresponds to the diameter of the smallest circle that circumscribes the entire rollable laser phosphor display in the rolled configuration. For example, with reference to FIG. 1, the maximum dimension 113 of the rollable laser phosphor display in the rolled configuration is equal to a diameter of the smallest circle 115 that circumscribes the entire rollable laser phosphor display 101. In aspects, the maximum dimension 113 can be about 500 mm or more, about 700 mm or more, about 900 mm or more, about 3,000 mm or less, about 2,000 mm or less, or about 1,000 mm or less. In aspects, the maximum dimension 113 can be in a range from about 500 mm to about 3,000 mm, from about 700 mm to about 2,000 mm, from about 900 mm to about 1,000 mm, or any range or subrange therebetween. In aspects, a ratio of the maximum dimension 113 of the rollable laser phosphor display in the rolled configuration (FIG. 1) to the maximum dimension 307 of the rollable laser phosphor display in the substantially planar configuration (FIG. 4) can be about 0.5 or less, about 0.4 or less, about 0.3 or less, about 0.28 or less, or about 0.25 or less. In aspects, a ratio of the maximum dimension 113 of the rollable laser phosphor display in the rolled configuration (FIG. 1) to the maximum dimension 307 of the rollable laser phosphor display in the substantially planar configuration (FIG. 4) can be in a range from about 0.05 to about 0.5, from about 0.1 to about 0.4, from about 0.15 to about 0.3, from about 0.2 to about 0.28, from about 0.22 to about 0.25, or any range or subrange therebetween. In aspects, as shown in FIG. 1 the rollable laser phosphor display 101 in the rolled configuration can be placed (e.g., stored, transported) in a package 111 (e.g., tube, box). Providing a rollable laser phosphor display can enable a rolled rollable laser phosphor display to be contained in a relatively small package relative to its unrolled (e.g., planar) configuration. For example, a rollable laser phosphor display can be beneficial for storage and/or transportation of the rollable laser phosphor display, which can enable larger laser phosphor display viewing areas to be sold directly to consumers.

[00138] It is to be understood that, in some aspects, the color converter sheet can be independent from the rollable laser phosphor display discussed above. For example, the color converter sheet can be sold to a manufacturer for incorporation into a display device and/or a consumer electronic product. For example, the color converter sheet can be used in conjunction with a plurality of light-emitting diodes (e.g., LED, OLED), where each sub-pixel of the color converter sheet corresponds to a light-emitting diode of the plurality of light-emitting diodes. For example, LEDs could be provided within the plurality of color filters or opposite the second substrate from the plurality of color converters. It is to be understood that in such aspects, the light-emitting diodes can be configured to emit light through the second substrate and/or be positioned between the second substrate and the photoluminescent material (e.g., within the region designated as the color filter, disposed on the second substrate).

[00139] Aspects of methods of making the color converter sheet 501 illustrated in FIG. 5, in accordance with aspects of the disclosure, will be discussed with reference to the flow chart in FIG. 7 and example method steps illustrated in FIGS. 8-31.

[00140] In a first step 701 of methods of the disclosure, as shown in FIG. 8, methods can start with providing a second substrate 231a. In aspects, the second substrate 231a may be provided by purchase or otherwise obtaining a substrate or by forming the second substrate. In aspects, the second substrate 231a can comprise a glassbased material, a ceramic-based material, or a polymer-based material. In further aspects, glass-based substrates can be provided by forming them with a variety of ribbon forming processes, for example, slot draw, down-draw, fusion down-draw, up-draw, press roll, redraw or float. In further aspects, glass-based substrates comprising ceramic crystals can be provided by heating a glass-based substrate to crystallize one or more ceramic crystals. The second substrate 231a may comprise the third major surface 235a.

[00141] After step 701, in aspects, as shown in FIG. 8, methods can proceed to step 703 comprising disposing a plurality of portions comprising the absorptive material 581a, 581b, and/or 581c. In aspects, as shown, a portion of the absorptive material 581a, 581b, and/or 581c can comprise a width 585 within one or more of the ranges discussed above for the width 585 of the walls 571a, 571b, and/or 571c. In aspects, as shown, a thickness 889 of a portion of the absorptive material 581a, 581b, and/or 581c can be within one or more of the ranges discussed above for the filter thickness 559. In aspects, the thickness 889 of a portion of the absorptive material 581a, 581b, and/or 581c can be about 100 nm or more, about 500 nm or more, about 1 pm or more, about 10 pm or less, about 5 pm or less, or about 2 pm or less. In aspects, the thickness 889 of a portion of the absorptive material 581a, 581b, and/or 581c can be in a range from about 100 nm to about 10 pm, from about 500 nm to about 5 pm, from about 1 pm to about 2 pm, or any range or subrange therebetween. In aspects, as shown, the plurality of portions comprising the absorptive material 581a can be spaced in a regular pattern, for example, corresponding to the width 587 of a subpixel (see FIG. 5). In further aspects, the width 587 can be about 20 pm or more, about 50 pm or more, about 100 pm or more, about 200 pm or less, 180 pm or less, or about 150 pm or less. In further aspects, the width 587 can be in a range from about 20 pm to about 200 pm, from about 50 pm to about 180 pm, from about 100 pm to about 150 pm, or any range or subrange therebetween. In aspects, step 703 can comprise precision disposing the plurality of portions comprising the absorptive material 581a, 581b, and/or 581c, for example, using an inkjet printing or dispensing material from a syringe or a micropipette. In aspects, step 703 can comprise disposing the plurality of portions comprising the absorptive material 581a, 581b, and/or 581c can comprise a photolithography method. In aspects, although not shown, the absorptive material 581a, 581b, and/or 581c can comprise a plurality of lines and/or two-dimensional intersecting lines (e.g., grid). In aspects, step 703 can be skipped (e.g., not following arrow 702) if the plurality of portions comprising the absorptive material 581a, 581b, and/or 581c are already disposed on the second substrate 231a at the end of step 701.

[00142] After step 701 or 703, as shown in FIGS. 9-10, methods can proceed to step 705 comprising disposing a mask over the third major surface 235a of the second substrate 231a. In aspects, as shown in FIG. 9, step 705 can comprise disposing a first liquid 903 over the third major surface 235a of the second substrate 231a to form a layer 905, for example, by dispensing the first liquid 903 from a container 901 (e.g., conduit, flexible tube, micropipette, or syringe). In aspects, as shown between FIGS. 9- 10, the layer 905 of the first liquid 903 can be cured to form a mask 1010. In aspects, the mask 1010 can comprise a photoresist. Throughout the disclosure, a positive photoresist refers to a material where a portion exposed to light in a wavelength range (e.g., ultraviolet) can be more easily removed (e.g., using an etchant) than a portion of the material not exposed to the light. Throughout the disclosure, a negative photoresist refers to a material where a portion exposed to light in a wavelength range (e.g., ultraviolet) is more resistant (e.g., etches slower) to removal (e.g., using an etchant) than a portion of the material not exposed to the light. In aspects, the mask 1010 can comprise a negative photoresist.

[00143] After step 705, as shown in FIGS. 10-12, methods can proceed to step 707 comprising developing the mask 1010 (e.g., negative photoresist), for example, by exposing portions of the mask 1010 to light 1003 emitted from a light source 1001. In aspects, as shown, the light can travel through the second substrate 231a before impinging the mask 1010 to develop the mask 1010 (e.g., photoresist) since the absorptive material 581a, 581b, and/or 581c can absorb the light. In aspects, as shown, a plurality of first portions 1013a, 1013b, and 1013c can correspond to portions of the mask 1010 not exposed to the light 1003, and the first portions 1013a, 1013b, and 1013c can be aligned with corresponding portions of the absorptive material 581a, 581b, and 581c. In aspects, as shown, a plurality of second portions 1011a, 1011b, and 1011c can correspond to portions of the mask 1010 exposed to the light 1003, which can be more easily removed when the mask 1010 comprises a negative photoresist. Using a negative photoresist in manufacturing a component (e.g., reflective walls) of a display device (e.g., color converter sheet) can simplify manufacturing by taking advantage of an existing absorptive material disposed on a substrate to pattern and align spaces for the reflective walls. In aspects, step 707 can further comprise removing a plurality of first portions 1013a, 1013b, and 1013c of the mask 1010 to form a plurality of first spaces 1105.

[00144] After step 707, as shown in FIGS. 11-12, methods can proceed to step 709 comprising disposing a first material (e.g., walls 571a, 571b, and/or 571c) in the plurality of first spaces 1105. In aspects, as shown in FIG. 11, step 709 can comprise disposing a second liquid 1101 into the plurality of first spaces 1105 to form a plurality of layers 1103a, 1103b, and 1103c, for example by dispensing the second liquid 1101 from the container 901. In further aspects, as shown, a free surface 1107 can be substantially level (e.g., coplanar, extend along a common plane) with a first surface area 1015a, 1015b, and 1015c of the plurality of second portions 1011a, 1011b, and 1011c of the mask 1010. In further aspects, disposing the second liquid can comprise a doctor blade, for example, where a surface (e.g., blade, squeegee) is drawn across the first surface area 1015a, 1015b, and 1015c of the plurality of second portions 1011a, 1011b, and 1011c of the mask 1010 to remove excess material while filling the plurality of first spaces 1105 with the second liquid 1101.

[00145] In aspects, as shown in FIG. 12, the second liquid 1101 can be cured to form a reflective material comprising a plurality of walls 571a, 571b, and 571c. In further aspects, as shown in FIG. 12 and discussed above with reference to FIG. 5, the plurality of walls 571a, 571b, and 571c can comprise a polymer-based material 1223 surrounded by a metal layer 1221. In even further aspects, the polymer-based material 1223 can comprise one or more of the materials discussed above for the another material 645a, 645b, and/or 645c (e.g., an acrylate polymer). In even further aspects, the metal layer 1221 can comprise a metal material (e.g., silver, aluminum), for example, metal nanoparticles or a sputtered metal. In further aspects, the second liquid 1101 can comprise metal (e.g., nanoparticles) dispersed in and/or bonded to acrylate -based materials (e.g., acrylate monomers, acrylate oligomers) that can be cured to form the polymer-based material 1223 surrounded by the metal layer 1221. In aspects, a width of a wall of the plurality of walls 571a, 571b, and 571c can comprise a width within one or more of the ranges discussed above for the width 585 of the portions of the absorptive material 581a, 581b, and 581c, and/or comprise substantially the same width as the portions of the absorptive material 581a, 581b, and 581c.

[00146] After step 709, as shown in FIGS. 12-13, methods can proceed to step 711 comprising removing the plurality of second portions 1011a (see FIG. 11) of the mask 1010 to form a plurality of second spaces 1205. FIG. 12 is a cross-section along line 12-12 of FIG. 13, and FIG. 13 is a top view taken along view 13-13 of FIG. 12. In aspects, as shown, a first stencil 1201 comprising a first surface area 1203 and a second surface area 1209 opposite the first surface area 1203. In further aspects, as shown, the first stencil 1201 can be disposed over the mask 1010, the walls 571a, 571b, 571c, and the second substrate 231a, for example, with the second surface area 1209 facing and/or contacting the first surface area 1015b and 1015c and/or a surface 1213a, 1213b, and/or 1213c of the plurality of walls 571a, 571b, and 571c. In further aspects, as shown, the first stencil 1201 can comprise a window 1301 corresponding to the plurality of second portions 1011a. In further aspects, as shown, the first stencil 1201 can be temporarily adhered to the mask 1010 and the plurality of walls 571a, 571b, and 571c. In even further aspects, although not shown, the plurality of second portions 1011a (see FIG. 11) can be removed (e.g., etched through the window 1301 of the first stencil 1201) to form a plurality of second spaces 1205 and to reveal a second portion 1207 of the third major surface 235a of the second substrate 231a, which can be bounded by a pair of adjacent walls 571a and 571b. In aspects, step 711 can comprise removing the plurality of second portions 1011a while leaving other portions (e.g., plurality of third portions 1011b, plurality of fourth portions 1011c) of the mask 1010 or 1210.

[00147] In aspects, after step 709, methods can follow arrow 704 to step 743 comprising removing the mask 1010. In further aspects, the mask 1010 removed can comprise a negative photoresist. In further aspects, the mask 1010 can be removed by etching such that the plurality of walls 571a, 571b, and 571c stands proud from the second substrate 231a. After step 743, methods can proceed to step 745 comprising disposing another mask 1210 (e.g., positive photoresist) shown in FIGS. 14-15. In aspects, the another mask 1210 can comprise a positive photoresist. Providing a positive photoresist can facilitate removal of selected portions of the positive photoresist while reducing a risk of damaging the walls and/or the second substrate. After step 745, methods can proceed to step 747 comprising removing the removing the plurality of second portions 1011a (see FIG. 11) of the mask 1010 to form a plurality of second spaces 1205. In aspects, step 747 can comprise developing a fourth portion (e.g., the plurality of second portions 1011a) by exposing the portion to light and subsequently removing (e.g., etching) the plurality of second portions 1011a with or without the first stencil 1201 (see FIGS. 12-13). In aspects, step 747 can comprise using the first stencil 1201 (see FIGS. 12-13) to control access of an etchant to the plurality of second portions 1011a. [00148] After step 711 or 747, as shown in FIGS. 14-16, methods can proceed to step 713 comprising disposing a first material in the plurality of second spaces 1205 to form a first absorptive material (e.g., first color filter 553a). In aspects, as shown in FIG. 14, step 713 can comprise disposing a third ink 1403 (e.g., dispensed from the container 901) to form the third layer 1401 in the second space 1205, which can be cured to form the first color filter 553a. In aspects, as shown in FIG. 15, step 713 can comprise disposing a first solution 1501 comprising the first absorptive material and a solvent. In further aspects, the first absorptive material can be diluted with solvent to form the first solution such that the solution can completely fill the second space 1205 with a free surface 1503 coplanar (e.g., extend along a common plane) with the surface 1213a, 1213b, and 1213c of the walls 571a, 571b, and 571c and form the first color filter 553a comprising the filter thickness 559. In even further aspects, as shown in FIG. 15, the first solution 1501 can be disposed using a doctor blade, for example, by drawing a surface 1511 (e.g., blade, squeegee) in a direction 1513 across the surface 1213a, 1213b, and 1213c of the walls 571a, 571b, and 571c and the first surface area 1015b and 1015c of the mask 1010 or 1210 (e.g., surfaces of the plurality of third portions 1011b and/or the plurality of fourth portions 1011c). In further aspects, step 713 can further comprise evaporating the solvent from the first solution 1501 (e.g., by heating the first solution 1501) to form the first color filter 553a. Using a doctor blade can simplify deposition methods for the exposed section (e.g., second space 1205), which can reduce time, complexity, and/or labor required to manufacture the color converter sheet. Although only one second space 1205 is shown, it is to be understood that there can be a plurality of second spaces that can be arranged in a stripe pattern, as discussed above, and can all be filled in step 713. It is to be understood that step 713 can comprise disposing one or more LEDs in each second space of the plurality of second spaces before disposing the first material.

[00149] After step 713, as shown in FIG. 17, methods can follow arrow 706 to proceed to step 715 comprising disposing a fourth layer 1701 of material capable of sublimation comprising a seventh surface area 1703 and an eighth surface area 1705 opposite the seventh surface area 1703. In aspects, a thickness of the fourth layer 1701 can correspond to the first gap thickness 549 and/or be within the range discussed above for the first gap thickness 549. In aspects, the fourth layer 1701 (e.g., seventh surface area 1703) can be disposed on and/or contact the third surface area 555a of the first color filter 553a. As used herein, a material capable of sublimation refers to a material that can transform from a solid to a gas at a temperature range from about -20°C to about 200°C and/or a pressure in a range from about 1 Pascal to about 10 MegaPascals. An exemplary aspect of a material capable of sublimation is cyclododecane.

[00150] After step 713 or 715, as shown in FIGS. 18-19, methods can proceed to step 717 comprising disposing a first photoluminescent material 533a on the first color filter 553a and the plurality of second portions 1207 of the third major surface 235a of the second substrate 231a and/or in the second space 1205. In aspects, as shown in FIG. 18, a first ink 1801 can be disposed in the second space 1205 and/or over the second portion 1207 of the third major surface 235a. In further aspects, as shown, the first ink 1801 can be disposed using a doctor blade, for example, with a surface 1511 (e.g., blade squeegee) drawn in a direction 1513 across the surface 1213a, 1213b, and/or 1213c and the first surface area 1015b and 1015c of the mask 1010 or 1210 (e.g., surfaces of the plurality of third portions 1011b and/or the plurality of fourth portions 1011c). In further aspects, as shown, a free surface 1803 of the first ink 1801 can be substantially coplanar (e.g., extend along a common plane) with the surface 1213a, 1213b, and/or 1213c and the first surface area 1015b and 1015c of the mask 1010 or 1210 (e.g., surfaces of the plurality of third portions 1011b and/or the plurality of fourth portions 1011c). In aspects, as shown in FIG. 19, curing the first ink 1801 comprising the first photoluminescent material 533a can form the photoluminescent materials 533a.

In further aspects, wrapping the wire to form the plurality of substantially parallel traces 5105a-5105k can comprise making the wire (i.e., trace) taught before proceeding with another wrap (i.e., subsequent trace).

In aspects, as shown, the trace 5105a (e.g., wire) can be trimmed at the location 5404a or 5404b while the other side of the trace is shown as already trimmed. In even further aspects, as shown, the trimming can comprise using a pair of scissors 5401 (e.g., wire cutters), although other means such as using a blade or a laser can be used to trim the trace (e.g., wire). As shown in FIG. 54, methods can be used to form a first color converter sheet in the first recess 4911 and a second color converter sheet (e.g., similar to or identical to the first color converter sheet) in the second recess using the same plurality of substantially parallel traces. For example, step 3251, as shown, can comprise trimming the plurality of substantially parallel traces (e.g., trace 5105a) at the first outer surface area 4905 for the first color converter sheet (e.g., first substrate 211a, second substrate 231a) as well as at the second outer surface area 4907 for the second color converter sheet. At the end of step 3247, as shown in FIG. 53, a plurality of capillaries 3907a, 3097b, and 3907c are defined between the plurality of substantially parallel traces 5015a-5105d corresponding to a plurality of walls 571a-571d, the first adhesive layer 5211 and the second adhesive layer 5311.

[00203] After step 3249, methods can proceed along steps 3215, 3217, 3219, 3221, 3223, 3225, 3227, 3229 as discussed above. In aspects, methods of making a color converter sheet 261a, 261b, and/or 601 in accordance with aspects of the disclosure can proceed along steps 3201, 3243, 3245, 3247, 3249, 3251, 3215, 3217, 3219, 3221, 3223, 3225, 3227, and 3229 of the flow chart in FIG. 32 sequentially, as discussed above. In aspects, methods can follow arrow 3224 from step 3249 to step 3229, for example, if the product is to comprise a plurality of unfilled capillaries (e.g., for use in a subsequent process). Any of the options discussed above (including arrow 3202) may be combined to make a color converter sheet in accordance with aspects of the disclosure. [00204] Aspects of methods of making the color converter sheet 6301 illustrated in FIG. 63, in accordance with aspects of the disclosure, will be discussed with reference to the flow chart in FIG. 55 and example method steps illustrated in FIGS. 56- 63.

In aspects, step 5501 can comprise providing a layer of a photoluminescent material and a source of metal. In aspects, step 5501 can comprise providing a layer of photoluminescent material attached to (e.g., contacting) a metallic layer on a major surface of the photoluminescent material, for example, if arrow 5510 is followed. In aspects, step 5501 can comprise providing a plurality of yams, as discussed below.

[00206] In aspects, a photoluminescent material 533a can be formed on the metallic layer 5611. Indeed, after step 5501, as shown in FIG. 56, methods can proceed to step 5503 comprising disposing a first ink 1801 on a metallic layer 5611. In aspects, the metallic layer 5611 can comprise a metallic thickness 5619 defined between a third major surface 5615 and a fourth major surface 5617 opposite the third major surface 5615. In aspects, the metallic thickness 5619 can be within one or more of the ranges discussed above for the width 585 of a wall. In aspects, disposing the first ink 1801 can comprise dispensing the first ink 1801 from a container 5601 (e.g., conduit, flexible tube, micropipette, or syringe) to form an ink layer 5603. In aspects, the first ink layer 5603 can be cured (e.g., the first ink 1801 can be cured) to form a sheet of photoluminescent material (e.g., see sheet 5703 of the photoluminescent material 533a shown in FIG. 57) to form a first metallized sheet (e.g., see first metallized sheet 5711 shown in FIG. 57) with the sheet of photoluminescent material comprising a thickness (e.g., layer thickness 5709) substantially corresponding to a width between an adjacent pair of walls in the color converter sheet.

[00207] In aspects, a metallized sheet 5611 can be disposed on the photoluminescent material 533a. Indeed, after step 5501, as shown in FIG. 57, methods can follow arrow 5502 to step 5505 comprising disposing a metallic layer 5611 on a first major surface 5705 of a sheet 5703 of the photoluminescent material 533a to form a first metallized sheet 5711. In aspects, as shown, disposing the metallic layer 5611 can comprise depositing metallic atoms from a gas phase (e.g., as indicated by cloud 5701), for example, sputtering, although other methods (e.g., physical vapor deposition, chemical vapor deposition) can be used in other aspects. In aspects, the metallic layer can comprise depositing (e.g., sputtering) aluminum or silver. In aspects, as shown, the sheet 5703 of the photoluminescent material can comprise a layer thickness 5709 between the first major surface 5705 and the second major surface 5707. In further aspects, the layer thickness 5709 can substantially correspond to a width between an adjacent pair of walls in the color converter sheet. In aspects, the metallic layer 5611 can comprise a thickness (e.g., metallic thickness 5619 shown in FIG. 56) within one or more of the ranges discussed above for the width 585 of a wall. In aspects, as shown in FIG. 57, the first metallized sheet 5711 can comprise a thickness 5719 that can correspond to (e.g., be substantially equal to) the width 587 of a sub-pixel and/or within one or more of the ranges discussed above for the width 587 of a sub-pixel.

[00208] After step 5501, step 5503, or 5505, as shown in FIG. 58, methods can proceed to step 5507 comprising separating the first metallized sheet 5711 into a first set of yams 5803a-5803e. In aspects, at the beginning of step 5507, the first metallized sheet 5711 can comprise a length 5807 that can substantially correspond to a dimension (e.g., width, length) of the color converter sheet as a stripe of the photoluminescent material. In aspects, as shown, the separating can comprise moving the first metallized sheet 5711 in a direction 5805 through a plurality of blades 5811a-5811d, although other methods can be used in other aspects. In further aspects, a yam width 5809 can correspond to a spacing between an adjacent pair of the plurality of blades 5811a-5811d. In aspects, the yam width 5809 can correspond to the photoluminescent thickness 539 and/or be within one or more of the ranges discussed for the photoluminescent thickness 539. In aspects, as shown in FIG 59, a first yam 5803a can comprise the thickness 5719 It is to be understood that steps 5501, 5503, 5505, and/or 5507 can further comprise forming a second metallized sheet comprising a second photoluminescent material (e.g., second photoluminescent material 533b) that can be separated into a second set of yams and/or forming a third metallized sheet comprising a third material (e.g., third material 533c) that can be separated into a third set of yams. [00209] After step 5507, as shown in FIG. 59, methods can proceed to step 5509 comprising loading a first yam 5803a in a first spool 5901. In aspects, as shown, the first spool 5901 can comprise a plurality of grooves 5907 with adjacent pairs of grooves of the plurality of grooves 5907 spaced apart by a spacing distance 5905. In further aspects, the spacing distance 5905 can be substantially equal to twice the thickness 5719 of the first yam 5803a. Providing a spacing distance between adjacent grooves in the first spool and/or between adjacent first yams can position the yams such that they can be easily combined with a plurality of second yams and a plurality of third yams to form a color converter sheet with minimal complexity or complications. In aspects, step 5509 can comprise loading a first set of yams 5803a-5803e in the first spool 5901, which can be done simultaneously, for example, as the first metallized sheet is separated into the first set of yams.

[00210] In aspects, as shown in FIG. 59, a first groove (e.g., containing the first yam 5803a) of the first spool 5901 can be offset from an edge of the first spool 5901 by a first distance 5903. In further aspects, although not shown, a second spool can have a first groove offset by a second distance that is different than the first distance (for the first spool). In even further aspects, a difference between the second distance and the first distance can be substantially equal to the thickness 5719 of the yam (e.g., first yam 5803a-5803e). In even further aspects, although not shown, a third spool can have a first groove offset by a third distance that is different than the first distance and is different than the second distance. In still further aspects, a difference between the second distance and the third distance can be substantially equal to the thickness 5719 of the yam (e.g., first yam 5803a-5803e). In still further aspects, a difference between the third distance and the first distance can be substantially equal to twice the thickness 5719 of the yam (e.g., first yam 5803a-5803e). Providing a difference in offset distances between the first spool, the second spool, and/or the third spool can reduce complexity and/or complications associated with combining the yams on the different spools together.

[00211] In aspects, step 5509 can further comprise loading a second set of yams (e.g., second yam 6003a shown in FIG. 60) formed from a second metallized sheet comprising the second photoluminescent material (e.g., second photoluminescent material 533b) on the second spool (e.g., second spool 6007 shown in FIG. 60). In aspects, step 5509 can further comprise loading a third set of yams (e.g., third yam 6005a shown in FIG. 60) formed from a third metallized sheet comprising the third material (e.g., third material 533c) on the third spool (e.g., third spool 6009 shown in FIG. 60). In aspects, the loading the plurality of yams (e.g., first yam) onto a spool can comprise coiling the yam around the spool; however, it is to be understood that the loading the sets of yams (e.g., first yam) can also comprise drawing the yam through the grooves formed on a spool and drawing the sets of yams off the spool for use in a subsequent step (e.g., step 5511).

[00212] After step 5509, as shown in FIGS. 60-61, methods can proceed to step 5511 comprising attaching a plurality of yams (e.g., the first yam 5803a, the second yam 6003a, and the third yam 6005a) together to form a composite sheet 6021. In aspects, as shown in FIG. 60, the first yam 5803a can be drawn from the first spool 5901 as the first spool 5901 rotates in a direction 5902a. In further aspects, as shown, the second yam 6003a can be drawn from the second spool 6007 as the second spool 6007 rotates in a direction 5902b. In further aspects, as shown, the third yam 6005a can be drawn from the third spool 6009 as the third spool 6009 rotates in a direction 5902c. In aspects, as shown in FIG. 60, step 5511 can comprise drawing together the first yam 5803a, the second yam 6003a, and the third yam 6005a with a pair of rollers 6011a and 6011b. In further aspects, as shown, a first roller 6011a of the pair of rollers can be rotating in a first direction 6012a (e.g., counterclockwise in the illustrated orientation) while a second roller 6011b of the pair of rollers rotates in a second direction 6012b (e.g., clockwise in the illustrated orientation) that is opposite the first direction 6012a. Although only a single first yam 5803a, a single second yam 6003a, and a single third yam 6005a are shown in FIG. 60, it is to be understood that step 5511 can encompass drawing together a plurality of first yams, a plurality of second yams, and a plurality of third yams such that the yams are interleaved in a resulting composite sheet.

[00213] In aspects, as shown in FIG. 61, forming the composite sheet 6021 can comprise attaching the first yam 5803a to the second yam 6003a and the second yam 6003a to the third yam 6005a with a plurality of adhesive layers (e.g., first adhesive layer 6121a, 6121b, 6121c, and/or 6121d). In further aspects, as shown, the first yam 5803a can be attached to the second yam 6003a by a second adhesive layer 6121b comprising the first contact surface 6123b contacting the third contact surface 6135b of the second photoluminescent material 533b of the second yam 6003a and a second contact surface 6125a contacting the first surface area 6113a of the metallic layer 6111a of the first yam 5803a. In further aspects, as shown, the second yam 6003a can be attached to the third yam 6005a by a third adhesive layer 6121c comprising the first contact surface 6123c contacting the fifth contact surface 6135c of the third material 533c of the third yam 6005a and the second contact surface 6125b contacting the first surface area 6113b of the metallic layer 6111b of the second yam 6003a. In further aspects, the first adhesive layer 6121a can comprise the first contact surface 6123a contacting the first contact surface 6135a of the first photoluminescent material 533a of the first yam 5803a. In further aspects, as shown, the metallic layer 6111a of the first yam 5803a can be positioned between the first photoluminescent material 533a of the first yam 5803a and the second photoluminescent material 533b of the second yam 6003a. In further aspects, the metallic layer 6111b of the second yam 5803b can be positioned between the second photoluminescent material 533b of the second yam 6003a and the third material 533c of the third yam 6005a. In further aspects, as shown, the first yam 5803a can comprise the second surface area 6137a of the first photoluminescent material 533a contacting the first surface area 6115a of the metallic layer 6111a. In further aspects, as shown, the second yam 6003a can comprise the fourth surface area 6137b of the second photoluminescent material 533b contacting the first surface area 6115b of the metallic layer 6111b. In further aspects, as shown, the third yam 6005a can comprise the sixth surface area 6137c of the third material 533c contacting the first surface area 6115c of the metallic layer 6111c. In aspects, the third adhesive thickness 5829 can be within one or more of the ranges discussed above for the third adhesive thickness (e.g., from about 1 pm to about 10 pm).

[00214] After step 5511, as shown in FIG. 62, methods can proceed to step 5513 comprising disposing the composite sheet 6021 on the second substrate 231a. In aspects, as shown, a plurality of color filters 553a, 553b, and/or 553c can be disposed on the second substrate 231a such that the plurality of color filters 553a, 553b, and/or 553c is positioned between the second substrate 231a and the composite sheet 6021. In further aspects, as shown, the absorptive material 581a, 581b, and/or 581c can be positioned between adjacent pairs of color filters. In further aspects, the plurality of color filters 553a, 553b, and/or 553c can be in substantial registration with the plurality of photoluminescent materials 533a, 533b, and/or 533c. In aspects, as shown, the plurality of first spacers 6211a, 6211b, and/or 6211c can be positioned between the plurality of color filters 553a, 553b, and/or 553c and the composite sheet 5721. In further aspects, as shown, the plurality of first spacers 6211a, 6211b, and/or 6211c can be in substantial registration with the absorptive material 581a, 581b, and/or 581c and/or the metallic layer 6111a, 6111b, and/or 6111c (e.g., walls). The plurality of first spacers 6211a, 6211b, and/or 6211c can provide the first gap 543a, 543b, and/or 543c comprising the first gap thickness 549. In aspects, although not shown, a plurality of LEDs can be within the plurality of color filters 553a, 553b, and/or 553c and/or disposed on the third major surface 235a of the second substrate 231a.

[00215] After step 5513, as shown in FIG. 63, methods can proceed to step 5515 comprising disposing the first substrate 211a on the composite sheet 6021. In aspects, as shown, step 5515 can further comprise disposing the dichroic mirror 631 on the composite sheet 5021 such that the dichroic mirror 631 can be positioned between the first substrate 211a and the composite sheet 5021. In further aspects, as shown, step 5515 can form the second gap 523a, 523b, and/or 523c comprising the second gap thickness 529 by positioning a plurality of second spacers 6311a, 6311b, and/or 6311c between the dichroic mirror 631 and the composite sheet 6021 and/or between the first substrate 211a and the composite sheet 6021.

[00216] After step 5515, as shown in FIG. 63, methods can proceed to step 5517 comprising applying a sealing layer 6303a and/or 6303b between the first substrate 211a and the second substrate 231a. In aspects, the sealing layer 6303a and/or 6303b can comprise a material comprising low permeability to water and/or oxygen, for example, forming a hermetic seal. The sealing layer 6303a and/or 6303b can comprise any of the properties and/or materials discussed above for the first end cap 4201 and/or the second end cap 4211. After step 5517, methods can proceed to step 5519 comprising assembling the color converter sheet in an electronic device, for example, as part of a LPD (e.g., rollable LPD). [00217] After step 5515 or 5517, methods can be complete upon reaching step 5519. In aspects, method of making a color converter sheet 261a, 261, and/or 6301 in accordance with aspects of the disclosure can proceed along steps 5501, 5503, 5507, 5509, 5511, 5513, 5515, 5517, 5519, and 5521 of the flow chart in FIG. 55 sequentially, as discussed above. In aspects, arrow 5502 can be followed from step 5501 to step 5505, for example, wherein the photoluminescent material is to be formed on a metallic layer rather than the reverse. In aspects, arrow 5510 can be followed from step 5501 to step 5507, for example, if a metallized sheet is provided in step 5501. In aspects, arrow 5504 can be followed from step 5501 to step 5511, for example, if the plurality of yams is provided in step 5501. In aspects, arrow 5506 can be followed from step 5511 to step 5521, for example, if the method produces a plurality of yams to be used in subsequent processing. In aspects, arrow 5508 can be followed from step 5517 to step 5521, for example, if the method is complete at the end of step 5517 (e.g., when the product of the method is the color converter sheet). Any of the above options may be combined to make a color converter sheet in accordance with aspects of the disclosure.

[00218] The above observations can be combined to provide a rollable laser phosphor display and methods of forming a rollable laser phosphor display. Providing a rollable laser phosphor display can enable a rolled rollable laser phosphor display to be contained in a relatively small package relative to its unrolled (e.g., planar) configuration. For example, a rollable laser phosphor display can be beneficial for storage and/or transportation of the rollable laser phosphor display, which can enable larger laser phosphor display viewing areas to be sold directly to consumers. Providing an interlocking mechanism can enable the rollable laser phosphor display to be secured in an unrolled (e.g., planar) configuration for viewing.

[00219] The rollable laser phosphor display can comprise a plurality of elongated sections, which enable the rollable laser phosphor display to be rolled. Providing a cover substrate extending across the plurality of elongated sections can provide a smooth (e.g., planar) surface for avoiding optical distortions while viewing the rollable laser phosphor display. Providing the cover substrate and/or a substrate of a color converter sheet of an elongated comprising a glass-based substrate or a ceramic-based substrate can provide good dimensional stability, reduced incidence of mechanical instabilities, good impact resistance, and/or good puncture resistance.

[00220] An elongated section of the plurality of elongated sections can be a self-contained laser phosphor display comprising a color converter sheet and a plurality of light sources configured to scan the color converter sheet. Providing a plurality of elongated sections comprising a color converter sheet and at least one light source in a spaced relationship can enable straightforward assembly (e.g., unrolling and/or interlocking the plurality of the elongated sections), for example, by the consumer without requiring special assembly or professional installation. Providing a plurality of light sources in an elongated section where each light source is configured to scan a nonoverlapping target scan area can reduce a depth of the elongated section and the rollable elongated section, which reduces an area required to place, store, and/or transport the rollable laser phosphor display.

[00221] Color converter sheets (e.g., in a rollable laser phosphor display, in an LED device) can comprise one or more gaps (e.g., air gaps, evacuated space) at a surface of a photoluminescent phosphor or a quantum dot layer, which can increase an efficiency (e.g., luminance, conversion efficiency, extraction efficiency) of the color converter sheet and/or increase a directionality (e.g., local dimming index, image clarity, perceived brightness) of an image viewed from a display comprising the color converter sheet. Providing a material capable of undergoing sublimation can be used to form the one or more gaps by acting as a spacer during methods of making the color converter sheet, where the material can be removed by sublimation later in the methods. Providing one or more adhesive layers (e.g., optically clear adhesive) can enable the color converter sheet to be manufactured from separated fabricated substrates and walls. Providing walls comprising reflective material between pixel and/or sub-pixels of a color converter sheet can increase an efficiency (e.g., luminance, extraction efficiency) of the color converter sheet and/or provide isolation of the light in one sub-pixel from adjacent sub-pixels. Providing a material comprising a polymer and a metallic component that can be cured such that the polymer is surrounded by a metal layer can simplify fabrication of the reflective walls. Providing the dichroic mirror can reduce spurious emissions from the color converter sheet, and/or increase an efficiency of (e.g., brightness emitted from) the color converter sheet.

[00222] Methods of forming a sheet (e.g., color converter sheet) can comprise sequentially exposing sections of a substrate to enable efficient deposition of components. For example, a planar device can be formed by sequentially exposing sections of a substrate, where a different component is disposed in each section. Sequentially exposing sections of a substrate can eliminate wasted material of a component, for example, by reducing the material disposed relative to an amount of material in the final product. Further, physically separated sections of a substrate can be exposed at the same time, where each exposed section is to have the same components disposed on thereon can simplify and/or streamline manufacturing. For example, in methods of making a color converter sheet, sections corresponding to red sub-pixels can be exposed at the same time followed by exposing sections corresponding to green subpixels and/or then exposing a section corresponding to blue sub-pixels. Moreover, deposition methods can be simplified for each exposed section, for example, enabling using of a doctor blade (e.g., squeegee) rather than more complex, time-intensive, and/or labor-intensive deposition methods. Also, using a negative photoresist in manufacturing reflective walls in a component of a display device (e.g., color converter sheet) can simplify manufacturing by taking advantage of an existing absorptive material disposed on a substrate to pattern and align spaces for the reflective walls.

[00223] Methods of forming a color converter sheet can comprise drawing material into one or more capillaries (e.g., applying a vacuum to suction material from an ink bath). Providing a plurality of capillaries with both ends exposed can enable multiple capillaries to be filled with material simultaneously. While a set of capillaries is exposed and filled, another set of capillaries can be capped (e.g., sealed) at one end to prevent those capillaries from being filled. Sequentially rotating which capillaries are open at both ends versus capped (e.g., at least one end) can enable multiple materials to be loaded into a corresponding set of capillaries. For example with a color converter sheet, capillaries corresponding to red sub-pixels can be filled by applying a vacuum while capillaries corresponding to blue sub-pixels and green sub-pixels are capped at one end. The capillaries can be formed by attaching a plurality of walls to a first substrate and a second substrate (e.g., using one or more optically clear adhesive(s)). Filling a plurality of capillaries extending a length or width of the color converter sheet can result in a stripe pattern color converter sheet with reduced processing complexity. Filling the plurality of capillaries using a vacuum can reduce processing time, for example, with three vacuum steps to fill all the capillaries.

[00224] Methods of forming a color converter sheet can generate a plurality of capillaries by wrapping a wire around a spindle. Providing a spindle with a second recess opposite the first recess can enable multiple (e.g., 2) color converter sheets to be manufactured substantially simultaneously using the same spindle (e.g., spindle apparatus) and the same plurality of substantially parallel traces, which increases efficiency both in terms of time and space requirements as well as in terms of material costs. Providing a taught wire (e.g., plurality of traces) can reduce material costs and provide traces (e.g., walls) in substantial registration with the absorptive material between adjacent pairs of color filters.

[00225] Methods of forming a color converter sheet can comprise attaching a plurality of yams comprising a photoluminescent material and a metallic layer together. Methods can enable mass production of the yams as a metallized sheet that can be formed and then separated into a set of yams (e.g., plurality of yams). The yams (e.g., set of yams) can be loaded on a spool comprising a plurality of grooves. Providing a spacing distance between adjacent grooves in the first spool and/or between adjacent first yams can position the yams such that they can be easily combined with a second set of second and a third set of yams to form a color converter sheet with minimal complexity or complications. Providing a difference in offset distances between the first spool, the second spool, and/or the third spool can reduce complexity and/or complications associated with combining the yams on the different spools together.

[00226] Directional terms as used herein — for example, up, down, right, left, front, back, top, bottom — are made only with reference to the figures as drawn and are not intended to imply absolute orientation.

[00227] It will be appreciated that the various disclosed aspects may involve features, elements, or steps that are described in connection with that aspect. It will also be appreciated that a feature, element, or step, although described in relation to one aspect, may be interchanged or combined with alternate aspects in various nonillustrated combinations or permutations.

[00228] It is also to be understood that, as used herein the terms “the,” “a,” or “an,” mean “at least one,” and should not be limited to “only one” unless explicitly indicated to the contrary. For example, reference to “a component” comprises aspects having two or more such components unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Likewise, a “plurality” is intended to denote “more than one.”

[00229] As used herein, the term “about” means that amounts, sizes, formulations, parameters, and other quantities and characteristics are not and need not be exact but may be approximate and/or larger or smaller, as desired, reflecting tolerances, conversion factors, rounding off, measurement error and the like, and other factors known to those of skill in the art. Ranges can be expressed herein as from “about” one particular value, and/or to “about” another particular value. When such a range is expressed, aspects include from the one particular value and/or to the other particular value. Similarly, when values are expressed as approximations, by use of the antecedent “about,” it will be understood that the particular value forms another aspect. Whether or not a numerical value or endpoint of a range in the specification recites “about,” the numerical value or endpoint of a range is intended to include two aspects: one modified by “about,” and one not modified by “about.” It will be further understood that the endpoints of each of the ranges are significant both in relation to the other endpoint and independently of the other endpoint.

[00230] The terms “substantial,” “substantially,” and variations thereof as used herein are intended to note that a described feature is equal or approximately equal to a value or description. For example, a “substantially planar” surface is intended to denote a surface that is planar or approximately planar. Moreover, as defined above, “substantially similar” is intended to denote that two values are equal or approximately equal. In aspects, “substantially similar” may denote values within about 10% of each other, for example, within about 5% of each other, or within about 2% of each other.

[00231] Unless otherwise expressly stated, it is in no way intended that any method set forth herein be construed as requiring that its steps be performed in a specific order. Accordingly, where a method claim does not actually recite an order to be followed by its steps or it is not otherwise specifically stated in the claims or descriptions that the steps are to be limited to a specific order, it is no way intended that any particular order be inferred.

[00232] While various features, elements, or steps of particular aspects may be disclosed using the transitional phrase “comprising,” it is to be understood that alternative aspects, including those that may be described using the transitional phrases “consisting of’ or “consisting essentially of,” are implied. Thus, for example, implied alternative aspects to an apparatus that comprises A+B+C include aspects where an apparatus consists of A+B+C and aspects where an apparatus consists essentially of A+B+C. As used herein, the terms “comprising” and “including”, and variations thereof shall be construed as synonymous and open-ended unless otherwise indicated.

[00233] The above aspects, and the features of those aspects, are exemplary and can be provided alone or in any combination with any one or more features of other aspects provided herein without departing from the scope of the disclosure.

[00234] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made to the present disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure. Thus, it is intended that the present disclosure cover the modifications and variations of the aspects herein provided they come within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.
