Printed cylindrical lens pair for application to the seam concealment in tiled displays

Seamless tiling of displays is one of the key enabling technologies for the next-generation large-area electronics applications. In this paper, we propose a facile method to demonstrate a seamless display using cylindrical lens pair (CLP) fabricated by dispenser printing method. Optical properties of the printed CLP and corresponding capability of concealing seam in the display are analyzed by a set of luminance simulation and measurement in terms of geometric parameters of the lens. The seamless display with an optimized CLP features a viewing angle of the seam concealment of 40 degrees.
