  • UV Cured Flexible Cholesteric Liquid Crystal Displays
    UV Cured Flexible Cholesteric Liquid Crystal Displays Tod Schneider, Erica Montbach, Don Davis, Sean Franklin, Diaz McDaniel, Mark Lightfoot, Nithya Venkataraman, Forrest Nicholson, Asad Khan, and J. William Doane Kent Displays, Inc. Kent, OH, USA Abstract Flexible Cholesteric liquid crystal displays have been rapidly maturing into a strong contender in the flexible display market. Encapsulation of the Cholesteric liquid crystal permits the use of flexible plastic substrates and roll-to-roll production. Recent advances include ultra-thin displays, laser-cut segmented displays of variable geometry, and smart card applications. Exciting technologies such as UV curing, and simultaneous laser-edge sealing/singulation enable high volume production, excellent quality control and non-traditional display geometries and formats. Keywords: UV Cure, Flexible Displays, Roll-to-Roll, Plastic Substrates, Cholesteric Liquid Crystals, Bistable Introduction Nearly every commercial liquid crystal display (LCD) manufactured and sold today is made from a sandwich of liquid crystal (LC) between two precisely spaced glass substrates coated with a transparent conductor. A few challenges remain for LCDs in the consumer market; namely, flexibility, durability, weight and power consumption. The first three issues can be addressed by using thin plastic substrates whereas the last issue can be solved using a bistable display, i.e. a display that is stable (with no power applied) in two states such as reflective or transmissive. Unfortunately, a problem arises when sandwiching liquid crystal between two flexible substrates: the fluid will flow! When the cell is flexed or pressed upon, the gap between the substrates becomes smaller displacing the LC and inducing flow. Cholesteric liquid crystal displays (ChLCDs) are bistable LCDs that have low power consumption and exhibit high reflectance under ambient lighting1.

  • Flat Panel Displays in Perspective
    Flat Panel Displays in Perspective September 1995 OTA-ITC-631 GPO stock #052-003-01438-6 Cover Photo Credit: Plasmaco, Inc. Recommended Citation: U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Flat Panel Displays in Perspective, OTA-ITC-631 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, September 1995). oreword lat panel displays (FPDs) are increasingly important in this informa- tion-intensive era. Compared with the cathode ray tube used in televi- sions, FPDs are thin, lightweight, and power efficient. These displays have enabled the development of portable computers and commu- nication devices. Applications in automobiles and offices will increase, and FPDs may eventually result in the fabled television-on-the-wall. FPDs repre- sent a large and rapidly growing industry worldwide, and are expanding into an increasingly diverse set of systems. American companies and researchers have made many of the key innovations in FPDs, but U.S. firms hold a very small share of the world market. Some observers have called for government intervention to strengthen the U.S. industry. One area of concern—access to displays for military use—has driven recent federal support for FPDs. Flat Panel Displays in Perspective examines the potential benefits of a do- mestic, high-volume, FPD industry for the nation, and evaluates the role of government policies in developing it. The report concludes that such an in- dustry would provide both economic and national security benefits. The ex- tent of these benefits is difficult to determine, however, largely because trends in technology development and industry structure are resulting in more displays at declining prices.

  • An Overview of Latest Display Technologies and Their Usage for Various Special Applications
    Journal of Radio and Television Broadcast Volume 3 Issue 3 An Overview of Latest Display Technologies and their Usage for Various Special Applications 1Dr. Vandana Khare, 2N. K. Shreyas 1Professor, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, CMR College of Engineering & Technology, Hyderabad, India 1Research Scholar, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, JNT University, Hyderabad, India 2B. tech II year, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, CMR College of Engineering & Technology, Hyderabad, India Email: [email protected], [email protected] DOI: http://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.2153526 Abstract In the new world of technology, due to its volatile nature there had been immense changes in the display technology since the past few years. Now it is that when portability plays an important role, the electronic displays of various electronic devices have changed their trend from being heavy and thicker in size to more light and thin in dimensions. This significant change in the dimensions of the electronic displays is due the adoption of AMOLED and Active QLED technology. AMOLED [Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode] is a display technology used in smartphones, mobile devices, laptops and television. A Quantum Dot Display is a display device that uses Quantum dots (QD), semiconductor nanocrystals which can produce pure monochromatic red, green, and blue light. Hence, with the use of these display technologies the manufacturing and usage of flexible and foldable electronic displays have come into existence with low power consumption and low cost, brighter colors with wide color gamut. Also by using this AMOLED and AQLED technology in the latest electronic displays, it is possible to control each and every pixel of the particular display so that, the possibility of manipulating the saturation, brightness, contrast and especially sharpness of the image or the picture increases.

  • Flexible Display Patent Landscape and Implications from the America Invents Act
    Flexible Display Patent Landscape and Implications From the America Invents Act Donald J. Featherstone,* Raymond J. Werner,** Christian A. Camarce,*** and Susan E. Cullen**** Abstract Developments in flexible display technology are expected to create significant new market opportunities for consumer electronic and commercial products. The potential economic impact of these new products is evidenced by the rapid growth around the world in patent application filings directed to flexible display technology areas. At the same time, changes to U.S. patent law, practice, and strategies have been triggered by the enactment of the Smith-Leahy America Invents Act. This article describes the patent landscape for flexible displays and ways in which newly enacted changes in patent law can facilitate the development of flexible display patent portfolios. I. Overview of the Flexible Patent Display Landscape. a. What Are Flexible Displays? Flexible displays are displays that can be bent, rolled, folded and/or twisted in many different configurations. As early as the 1970s, flexible display technology was used in e-paper displays, which were used to mimic the pliant properties of paper but with the capacity to display digital images.1 Today, largely led by Asian companies, research and development has moved past early e- paper display technology and has rapidly evolved into new materials, manufacturing methods, control means and integration schemes. Today’s applications of flexible displays are predominately in consumer electronic products such as mobile devices, TV screens, and similar video and multimedia products. * Donald J.

Holography is nothing but upgraded level of photography and conventional film and its three-dimensional nature makes it completely new possibilities for future use. Through this project we are trying to help display products, objects, and animated sequences three-dimensionally. 3D Holography is different from conventional film on a standard screen. 3D hologram is visible from all sides, so the observer can walk around the hologram, enabling an absolutely realistic-looking image to form.A video which is to be displayed will be processed. While processing, the image will be dimensionally split in such a way that after it's reflection on the fibre, it could be seen from all sides. The dimensions of the fibre being used will be required to be aligned with that of the image for proper display. The methodology we are using in this project is Reflection Holography using Geometric Transformation [2].
