This study compares how a modified distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) and yellow color filter (Y-CF) increase the color purity, viewing angle, and brightness of the quantum dot color conversion layer (QDCC) for micro-LED displays. We designed and built a 53-layer high-performance modified DBR with almost total blue leakage filtering (T %: 0.16 %) and very high G/R band transmittance (T %: 96.97 %) for comparison. We also use a Y-CF that filters blue light (T %: 0.84 %) and has good G/R band transmittance (T %: 94.83 %). Due to DBR's angle dependency effect, the modified DBR/QDCC structure offers a remarkable color gamut (117.41 % NTSC) at the forward viewing angle, but this rapidly diminishes beyond 30°. The Y-CF/QDCC structure retains 116 % NTSC color at all viewing angles. Because of its consistent color performance at all viewing angles, sufficient brightness, and outstanding color gamut, the Y-CF/QDCC structure is the best option for contemporary QDCC-based micro-LED displays.
