Patent ID: 8786806

Claim:
A display comprising: a first pixel comprising a first first-pixel color component having a first first-pixel first-component color dot; a second first-pixel first-component color dot aligned with the first first-pixel first-component color dot in a first dimension; a third first-pixel first-component color dot aligned with the first first-pixel first-component color dot in a second dimension; and a fourth first-pixel first-component color dot aligned with the third first-pixel first-component color dot in the first dimension and aligned with the second first-pixel first-component color dot in the second dimension; a first first-pixel extra-planar fringe field amplifier located between the first first-pixel first-component color dot and the second first-pixel first-component color dot; wherein the first first-pixel first-component color dot lies in a first plane and the first first-pixel extra-planar fringe field amplifier lies in a second plane; and a first first-pixel switching element coupled to the first first-pixel first-component color dot and the second first-pixel first-component color dot; and a second pixel comprising a first second-pixel color component having a first second-pixel first-component color dot; and a second second-pixel first-component color dot aligned with the first second-pixel first-component color dot in the first dimension; a first second-pixel extra-planar fringe field amplifier located between the first second-pixel first-component color dot and the second second-pixel first-component color dot; wherein the first second-pixel first-component color dot lies in the first plane and the first second-pixel extra-planar fringe field amplifier lies in the second plane; and a first second-pixel switching element coupled to the first second-pixel first-component color dot and the second second-pixel first-component color dot; and wherein the first second-pixel switching element is coupled to the first first-pixel extra-planar fringe field amplifier.
