Embodiments of the disclosed subject matter may provide a display device or display surface including at least one emissive layer and a near-infrared (NIR) emissive layer disposed in a stack arrangement between a first electrode and a second electrode, where NIR light is emitted from the NIR emissive layer through the at least one emissive layer, or visible light is emitted from the at least one emissive layer through the NIR emissive layer, and where the NIR light output by the NIR emissive layer has a peak wavelength of 740 nm-1000 nm. Embodiments of the disclosed subject matter may provide a near infrared (NIR) light source disposed behind or in front of an active-matrix organic light emitting diode (AMOLED), where the NIR light source has an area greater than 25% of an active area of the display device or display surface.
