Keynote: Technology Advances in Flexible Displays
09:45 - 10:30
In recent years, technologies to enable flexible displays have progressed rapidly in many industrial and research laboratories. One of the main applications is to target the handheld displays, such as those used for smart phones, which needs to be thin, rugged, and light-weight.

Chairman of TDMDA and General Director of DTC/ITRI

Display Technologies And Market Outlook
10:30 - 11:00
TFT LCD, including a-Si , Oxide and LTPS, has been recognized as the leading display technologies, not only because of its maturity, great economic scale, lower cost, but also because the LCD technology continue to evolve with the better picture performance and more design-advanced form factor. However, the flexible feature help OLED to start to penetrate from the mobile application.

Senior Director of DisplaySearch, IHS Technology

Conquering the MOCVD Challenges of Micro LED Display Technology
11:30 - 12:00
Owing to its low power consumption, high dynamic range and wide color gamut, Micro LED Display Technology has the potential to outperform the incumbents LCD and OLED Displays for applications, such as wearables, smartphones and television displays to billboard size screens.
Dr. Christian Geng
Director of Technology, AIXTRON SE

Flexible OLED Lighting - Opportunities, Challenges and Solutions
12:00 - 12:30
Beside to display technology, OLED also has unlikely potential for lighting applications. Where extremely thin, flexible or transparent light sources are desired, OLED can exploit its potential as a supplement to the LED. The improvement of flexible OLED is currently the focus of worldwide research activities.

Laser-Based Process Technology for μLED Production
12:30 - 13:00
The talk will provide an introduction in the topic of excimer laser-based line beam processes for μLEDs or comparable devices.
Starting with the basics on the design of a beam path, the impact of substrate materials on the laser process window will be explained. Particularly, the impact of the surface quality of the bonded wafers on the beam scattering is presented and compared to results based on optical simulations.
Furthermore, a solution for the compensation of said influence will be presented and its integration in the workflow to an industrially feasible solution will be discussed.

FPD Production of Flexible Oxide TFT Circuits on GEN2 Substrate
14:00 - 14:30
In this presentation, we show our engineering progress in building an FPD line (GEN2 plate, 47x37cm2) purposed for new, non-display applications. Low-cost integrated circuits (ICs) for IoT, biometric sensors and imagers are just a few examples.
Dr. Boris Galkin

Excimer Laser Processing For Advanced and Emerging Displays
14:30 - 15:00
The display technology has seen dramatic improvements over the years and today we are used to stunning picture quality on our TV sets and handheld mobile devices. Flexible OLED displays are creating a wave in the market for the variety of mobile displays. In addition, several emerging display technologies based on LCD, OLED, µLED and Quantum Dots are under development.

Coherent Inc.

Equipment and Technology for Flexible and Organic Electronics Manufacturing in S2S and R2R
15:30 - 16:00
The talk will discuss these requirements and possible solutions from an equipment manufacturer’s point of view and present equipment concepts and components which have been tailored for these needs.
Holm Geißler
VON ARDENNE GmbH

Processing Of Advanced Displays by Ultra-Short Pulse Laser
16:0 - 16:30
In this presentation, we will highlight the processes based on ultra-short pulse lasers as used in mass production today and that pave the way to the emerging displays. These include the cutting of glass and sapphire using filamentation by SmartCleave, the cutting of flexible substrates, the patterning of metal and polymer substrates and more.
