Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Microdisplay maker Kopin Corp. said it plans to enlarge its production facility in Taunton, Mass., to support demand for its display and heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) products. The announcement was made during a ceremony at its Taunton headquarters during which the company was awarded a $3 million state development grant. John C.C. Fan, Kopin president and CEO, said the grant is a "continuation of our strategy which includes federal, state and Kopin resources and revenues to develop leading-edge display products for use in consumer and military applications." It will be used to build cleanroom facilities, make infrastructure improvements and to create a job training program; Kopin also said it expects to increase its work force over the next five years. The expansion is expected to be completed later this year.

Glossary
microdisplay
A microdisplay is a miniature electronic display technology that is designed to project visual information onto a small screen. Unlike traditional displays, microdisplays are typically very compact and often used in applications where size, weight, and power consumption are critical factors. These displays can be based on various technologies, including liquid crystal display (LCD), organic light-emitting diode (OLED), digital light processing (DLP), and others. Key characteristics and...
photonics
The technology of generating and harnessing light and other forms of radiant energy whose quantum unit is the photon. The science includes light emission, transmission, deflection, amplification and detection by optical components and instruments, lasers and other light sources, fiber optics, electro-optical instrumentation, related hardware and electronics, and sophisticated systems. The range of applications of photonics extends from energy generation to detection to communications and...
