Display Compatible pMUT Device for Mid Air Ultrasound Gesture Recognition

Huang C.H., Demi L., Mao S., Jeong Y., Cheyns D., Rottenberg X., Rochus V., IMEC, BE

1. BACKGROUND Recently, piezoelectric micromachined ultrasound transducers (pMUT) have proved their potential to make a reliable 2D ultrasound array. As shown in Fig. 1, the displacement of piezoelectric material layer is galvanised by electrical signals/acoustic [...]

Inkjet Printing of High Index Zirconia Nanocomposite Materials

Healy M.D., Guschl P., Wang X., Weinstein M., Pixelligent Technologies LLC, US

Abstract High refractive index (RI) nanocomposites have properties which surpass traditional polymers while maintaining manufacturability. Nanocrystal-polymer nanocomposites, when inkjet-printed, are useful to many display components and aid the development of next generation displays. This paper [...]

Optimization of the electrical parameters of nematic and discotic liquid crystalline materials due to the dispersion of nano particles, nano tubes and quantum dots for display and photo-voltaic applications

Dhar R., Kumar S., Dabrowski R., University of Allahabad, IN

Electrical parameters of the nano particle and carbon nano tube dispersed room temperature liquid crystalline materials 5CB and 6CHBT have been determined. Due to the dispersion, nematic to isotropic transition temperatures are highly affected. Threshold [...]

Nanostructuring Plastic Displays within the Flexible Electronics Paradigm

Andrews M.P., Frechette P., Fong B., Shih I., Plastic Knowledge (formerly Silk Displays), CA

This presentation describes our advances in fabricating a fully functional color, plastic liquid crystal display that uses an all-inorganic thin film transistor array based on a nanocrystalline II-VI semiconductor. The display itself represents an interesting [...]

The Design and Simulation of a Novel Out-of-plane Micro Electrostatic Actuator

Tsou C., Huang S.L., Lai T.S., Li H.C., Feng Chia University, TW

This paper presents a mechanism of developing a novel out-of-plane micro electrostatic actuator capable of causing large out-of-plane deflection. The proposed actuation mechanism is using the attraction force between the charged bodies to bend the [...]

Nanoscience and Nanotechnology:Two New Exciting Fields for Future Display Applications

Yaniv Z., Applied Nanotech, Inc., US

Though just two years ago nanoparticles and nanotechnology were little more than a blip on the industrial applications radar, over 1 billion in annual venture capital is expected to be invested in the field in [...]
