Project Aims for Unbreakable Displays

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Displays for smartphones and tablets will not only be flexible, but unbreakable and lighter-weight if a European consortium meets its goals. The LiCRA research consortium, led by the Institute of Large Area Microelectronics at the University of Stuttgart, is working with national and international industry partners to develop robust but extremely lightweight displays using flexible plastic foils instead of glass substrates. Curved displays for automotive or advertising applications need to have some flexibility, while the market for rugged displays continues to grow. Flexible...Read full article

    liquid crystal
    Liquid crystals are a state of matter that exhibits properties intermediate between those of conventional liquids and solid crystals. In a liquid crystal, the molecules are ordered like those in a crystal, but they can still flow like a liquid. This unique combination of structural order and fluidity gives liquid crystals their distinctive characteristics and makes them valuable in various technological applications, particularly in display technology. Key features and characteristics of...
