Abstract

Laser displays, which exploit characteristic advantages of lasers, represent a promising next-generation display technology based on the ultimate visual experience they provide. However, the inability to obtain pixelated laser arrays as self-emissive full-color panels hinders the application of laser displays in the flat-panel sector. Due to their excellent optoelectronic properties and processability, organic materials have great potential for the production of periodically patterned multi-color microlaser arrays. Here, we demonstrate for the first time full-color laser displays on precisely patterned organic red-green-blue (RGB) microlaser matrices through inkjet printing. Individual RGB laser pixels are realized by doping respective luminescent dyes into the ink materials, resulting in a wide achievable color gamut 45% larger than the standard RGB space. Using as-prepared microlaser arrays as full-color panels, we achieve dynamic laser displays for video playing through consecutive beam scanning. These results represent a major step towards full-color laser displays with outstanding color expression.
