Dupont Takes Up CDT Technology
Light emitting polymer (LEP) developer Cambridge Display Technology (CDT) is to provide its full colour ink-jet printing manufacturing technology and process knowledge to DuPont Displays for use in LEP organic light emitting diode (OLED) manufacturing.
Light emitting polymer (LEP) developer Cambridge Display Technology (CDT) is to provide its full colour ink-jet printing manufacturing technology and process knowledge to DuPont Displays for use in LEP organic light emitting diode (OLED) manufacturing.
The technology and process transfer agreement builds on a LEP manufacturing and intellectual property licensing agreement between the two companies made in November 2001.
The process uses ink-jet technology developed by CDT on deposition tools supplied by its Litrex subsidiary. CDT currently manufactures LEP displays on 350x350mm substrates at its Godmanchester, UK, manufacturing technology development centre and plans to shortly release the first commercially available LEP displays made using an ink-jet printing process.
Litrex designs the ink-jet printers and CDT is heavily involved in ink formulation, surface conditioning and manufacturing system development to allow high-resolution printing.
