EHD live printing at Lopec 2024 - Small drops make the difference

Notion Systems and Scrona presented the n.jet EHD system to the public for the first time during the LOPEC 2024 exhibition. The globally unique multi nozzle EHD printing system for functional materials is capable of printing resolutions of < 1 µm or materials with viscosities of up to 10.000 cP.

Today the GEN3 EHD print head offers 8 fully digital nozzles with a pitch of 100µm which will be increased to 256 fully digital nozzles by Q1/2025, outperforming conventional inkjet printing by several orders of magnitude, paving the way for additive printing in applications dominated by photolithographic process.

The company reports a great interest in its booth and demonstration. Most visitors were not aware of the EHD technology and were very impressed by the technology and its capabilities.

Make the most out of SID DisplayWeek 2024 with the OLED Toolbox

SID’s Displayweek 2024 is just around the corner, and we expect it to become another excellent display industry event – where you can meet most of the industry and see the latest display innovations, prototypes and products. DisplayWeek includes a 3-day exhibition, 4-day technical symposium, short courses, seminars, three focus conferences - and the 2024 annual meeting of the MicroLED Industry Association. And of course, many networking opportunities.

The OLED Toolbox can be an excellent tool to help maximize the event for your company, in many ways:

It can be used to screen potential companies with which you’d like to meet. The toolbox contains a spreadsheet of over 250 companies. You can filter the list (for example – only material developers, or only companies out of Germany) and learn about the company’s products, background, and get contact details.

Being properly prepared for a meeting during a tradeshow can be crucial – as most meetings are short and it is important to make a good first impression. So, once you’ve compiled a list of companies to meet, check out the OLED Library - which contains over 160 items contributed by industry companies. In the OLED Library you’ll find brochures, roadmaps, presentations, datasheets, and more.

This is an interesting move by SDC. Apple is an extremely important customer for Samsung Display, of course, and up until recently SDC has been the leading supplier of OLED displays for Apple - winning the majority of orders for iPhone AMOLEDs. But now that Apple is starting to adopt OLEDs in IT products (starting with tablets) things are changing.

Two research groups show that it is possible to produce a high-performance pure blue MR-TADF OLED emitter without the need for an assistant dopant

Researchers from the Universities of St Andrews, Kyoto and Kyushu have coincidentally developed state-of-the-art multi-resonant TADF (MR-TADF) OLED emitters, based on a helical boron-nitrogen-oxygen doped nanographene design.

In these multiple studies, the researchers have shown that it is possible to obtain deep blue, narrowband emission, very fast reverse intersystem crossing rates constants, and high-efficiency vacuum-deposited OLEDs.
