AUO and the FDC to co-develop flexible AMOLED displays
Nov 17th
The Flexible Display Center (FDC) at Arizona State University and AU-Optronics will co-develop mixed oxide thin film transistors (TFTs) for flexible AMOLED displays. AUO and the FDC will work in active partnership with dedicated engineering teams to advance mixed oxide transistor technology and the handling capabilities of conventional flat panel display (FPD) manufacturing processes to accommodate the thin, plastic substrates used for AMOLED flexible displays. Mixed oxide TFTs offer a better ability to drive currents and improve the lifetime and stability of transistors used for OLED displays. Flexible AMOLED by ITRI AUO is also working towards flexible displays together with Taiwan’s ITRI . AUO plans to start mass producing AMOLED displays in Q2 2011 (but these will not be flexible…).
