However, due to the silicon-based backplane, these microdisplays have always been non-transparent, requiring a complex optical system for integration into an optic. This has a significant impact on the weight, size and overall optical efficiency of the system. In this paper, a novel technology for the realization of semi-transparent OLED-on-silicon microdisplays is presented, which enables completely new optical concepts for near-to-eye optics.enOLEDMicrodisplayOLED-on-Siliconjournal article
