Abstract
Microdisplays have been used in various applications such as beam projectors, view finders of digital cameras, projection TVs, night vision for military use, and augmented reality/virtual reality (AR/VR) devices. Organic light-emitting diode (OLED) microdisplays have attracted much attention as main displays of glass-type and head-mounted-type AR/VR devices due to their rich colors, high contrast ratio, fast response time, small form factor, and high resolution. This review investigates the device, process, pixel circuit, and panel technologies for OLED microdisplays. In addition, the technology status and issues of OLED microdisplays are discussed.
