In this paper, we propose a full screen biometric identification approach for organic light emitting diode (OLED) displays using a near infra‐red(NIR) OLED coupled to a large area thin film transistor (TFT) pixel sensing circuit. Preliminary estimates for photons propagating from the NIR OLED source and reflecting back to the subpixel are presented. Although the signal landing on the subpixel is small, it may be amplified by the large area active pixel sensor circuits integrated in the TFT layer. The proposed approach has the key advantage of compatibility with existing large area fabrication processes. Although there are still some open technical issues such as NIR OLED lifetime, responsivity and sensor characteristics, the proposed approach demonstrates the potential to implement a full screen biometric identification within a large area display.
