Abstract

With the increasing success of OLED, and mounting interest in QLED, emissive technologies have already proven their worth and enabled a variety of consumer products with stunning display performance. But microLED could very be another disruptive display technology for a variety of applications. Since the acquisition of startup Luxvue by Apple in 2014 and that of InfiniLED by Facebook-Oculus last year, inorganic LEDs have generated a lot of attention.

Compared to existing LCD and OLED displays, microLEDs offer the promise of high brightness, dramatically reduced power consumption and improved image quality. MicroLED displays could serve the needs of and benefit most applications, spanning from wearable and mobile devices to AR/VR, TVs and even large video displays as demonstrated recently by Sony. So what’s missing? The science is here, but the success of the technology will depend on overcoming a variety of engineering and manufacturing challenges.
