Microcavites contribute to enhancing the optical efficiency and color saturation of an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display. A major tradeoff of the strong cavity effect is its apparent color shift, especially for RGB-based OLED displays, due to their mismatched angular intensity distributions. To mitigate the color shift, in this work we first analyze the emission spectrum shifts and angular distributions for the OLEDs with strong and weak cavities, both theoretically and experimentally. Excellent agreement between simulation and measurement is obtained. Next, we propose a systematic approach for RGB-OLED displays based on multi-objective optimization algorithms. Three objectives, namely external quantum efficiency (EQE), color gamut coverage, and angular color shift of primary and mixed colors, can be optimized simultaneously. Our optimization algorithm is proven to be effective for suppressing color shift while keeping a relatively high optical efficiency and wide color gamut.
