1. An article, comprising:

  • a stack of display layers, the stack comprising a display layer having a relatively high-shear modulus sandwiched between two display layers having a relatively low-shear modulus, and each display layer comprising a light-emitting device that generates heat and light during use;

    the heat generated by the display layers forming a localized heat-source within the stack; and

    the display layer with the relatively high-shear modulus is a thermal transport layer through which the localized heat-source-induced elastic waves propagate along an acoustic waveguide plane, and the thermal transport layer can transport the heat generated by the light-emitting device away from the light-emitting device.
