Flat Panel Displays (FPD)

 

 

  

IMPT's Layatec™ and Laya-jet™ processes are capable of depositing ITO and conducting oxide layers for the production of flat panel displays ranging in size from small hand-held devices to large 50+ inch displays. The major benefit of using Layatec™ and Laya-jet™ in the FPD industry is that there is no need for vacuum processing. This therefore allows for continuous reel-to-reel or large area deposition which significantly improves productivity without huge capital costs. The Layatec™ and Laya-jet™ processes can be simply scaled up to any size - there are no limitations of vacuum chambers. The running costs of Layatec™ and Laya-jet™ are also significantly less than existing technology, no electron beams, plasmas or vacuums.

ITO Properties with the Layatec™ and Laya-jet™ process

  • ITO (resistivity ≈ 10-4 W.cm-1 and Optical Transmission above 80%)
  • High purity and adhesion
  • Precise control of film microstructure , composition and thickness with high deposition efficiency ( e.g. 90%)

The Advantages

  • Non-vacuum
  • Process simplicity and flexibility
  • Multi-layer processing
  • Low-cost , safe and environmentally friendly
  • Open atmosphere process – no need for sophisticated reactors or vacuum units
  • Easy to scale up from micro-displays to 50+ inches
