Atwood 603/924-9628, [email protected] Welcome to the final issue for 2018, and one that is Global Ad Director: especially forward-looking, as you can see from our cover. Dan Nicholas, [email protected] Throughout the year, we have heard a lot of discussion about Senior Account Manager emissive materials and their potential. They were a major Print & E-Advertising: theme at Display Week 2018, and they are clearly supported Roland Espinosa by a great deal of R&D spending around the world. 201/748-6819, [email protected] Emissive technologies, organic and inorganic, in various forms, have been around since the birth of information displays. CRTs used phosphors, which are inorganic Editorial Advisory Board emissive compounds that often utilized rare-earth metals, to make their images. Plasma Stephen P. Atwood, Chair displays also used phosphors, and there have been many other examples, such as Azonix Corp. vacuum-fluorescent and thin-film electroluminescent displays. Many of these displays Ioannis ( John) Kymissis Electrical Engineering Department, Columbia worked in certain applications, but for various reasons lacked the ability to scale in University terms of size (larger or smaller), resolution, optical performance, or other aspects that Larry Weber limited their commercial life. And yes, I know it’s rather glib to write off 100 years of Consultant CRT technology as having “limited” commercial life. But as we know today, there are a multitude of product embodiments such as tablets, smartphones, and large-screen Guest Editors TVs that were never going to be achieved with CRTs. Hence the generational hunger Lighting in our industry for something more – the same hunger that continues to drive Marina Kondakova, OLEDWorks researchers toward even better solutions today. As you will learn in this issue, many AR/VR hope to find those solutions through entirely new classes of emissive technologies. Seth Coe-Sullivan, Luminit Automotive Displays One-Day Conference from the LA Chapter Karlheinz Blankenbach, Pforzheim University However, before we dive into the emissive articles for this issue, I want to draw your Digital Signage attention to the terrific upcoming program on “Selecting and Customizing Gary Feather, NanoLumens Display Products” being hosted by the Los Angeles Chapter of the Society for Emissive Technology Information Display on February 8, 2019. I’m told this is the chapter’s 15th year Ruiqing (Ray) Ma, Nanosys organizing this annual program, which proves time and again to be one of the most useful and practical technical seminars in SID’s regional portfolio. I have attended Contributing Editors several of these programs in the past, including ones on advanced television, LCD Steve Sechrist, Consultant modules, and LEDs.

Soneira, DisplayMate Technologies The organizing team in LA includes many well-known industry veterans, including this year’s conference chair Larry Iboshi. The speaker lineup looks to be stellar as well. In our SID News department you can read more about the details of the event. And let’s be honest: what’s not to like about a trip to LA in early February, especially to spend a day at the Costa Mesa Country Club? Emissive Progress Our guest editor for this issue is Ruiqing (Ray) Ma, who is currently working as the director for QD devices at Nanosys. Ray has served both as a guest editor and contributing author for ID many times and continues to be one of our go-to experts for emissive technology.

    Harvard Business School 9-800-143 Rev. May 18, 2000 E Ink This is a chance for all of us to leave a legacy. Nothing I’ve seen has shaken my belief that this technology is just fundamentally revolutionary. —Jim Iuliano, President & CEO of E Ink The research building of E Ink in Cambridge, Massachusetts, sounded more like a party than a lab for serious, cutting-edge technology. Loud polka music and the laughter of young employees filled the air as they went about their work. Founded just over a year earlier, in 1997, the company aimed to revolutionize print communication through display technology. Black and white photographs, hung throughout the lab, captured scenes of everyday expression that could be affected by E Ink’s technology; these photos included everything from subway graffiti to the sign for the tobacco shop in Harvard Square. Across the parking lot, a different building housed the offices of E Ink’s management team, including Jim Iuliano, president and CEO of E Ink, and Russ Wilcox, vice president and general manager. A prototype of E Ink’s first product hung outside their offices—a sign prepared for JC Penney. It read, “Reebok High Tops on sale today. Sale ends Friday.” Electronic ink (e-ink) was an ink solution, composed of tiny paint particles and dye, that could be activated by an electric charge. This ink could be painted onto nearly any type of surface— including thin, flexible plastics. Charged particles could display one color, such as white, while the dye displayed another color, such as blue.

  • 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.

  • Light Engines for XR Smartglasses by Jonathan Waldern, Ph.D
    August 28, 2020 Light Engines for XR Smartglasses By Jonathan Waldern, Ph.D. The near-term obstacle to meeting an elegant form factor for Extended Reality1 (XR) glasses is the size of the light engine2 that projects an image into the waveguide, providing a daylight-bright, wide field-of-view mobile display For original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) developing XR smartglasses that employ diffractive wave- guide lenses, there are several light engine architectures contending for the throne. Highly transmissive daylight-bright glasses demanded by early adopting customers translate to a level of display efficiency, 2k-by-2k and up resolution plus high contrast, simply do not exist today in the required less than ~2cc (cubic centimeter) package size. This thought piece examines both Laser and LED contenders. It becomes clear that even if MicroLED (µLED) solutions do actually emerge as forecast in the next five years, fundamentally, diffractive wave- guides are not ideally paired to broadband LED illumination and so only laser based light engines, are the realistic option over the next 5+ years. Bottom Line Up Front • µLED, a new emissive panel technology causing considerable excitement in the XR community, does dispense with some bulky refractive illumination optics and beam splitters, but still re- quires a bulky projection lens. Yet an even greater fundamental problem of µLEDs is that while bright compared with OLED, the technology falls short of the maximum & focused brightness needed for diffractive and holographic waveguides due to the fundamental inefficiencies of LED divergence. • A laser diode (LD) based light engine has a pencil like beam of light which permits higher effi- ciency at a higher F#.
