Can flexible displays be commercialized in large quantities?

In fact, the subject's advertising screen is an application of the early flexible screen. Now, a new generation of flexible screen applications has emerged, and it also has the possibility of large-scale commercial use.

Because the flexible screen can fit well in the curve of the interior space, the AMOLED flexible screen concept in-vehicle application recently displayed by Visionox - Infinity shows a very futuristic interior space. Through the flexible AMOLED screen, people can switch to entertainment or office mode at any time to meet the interaction and interaction needs of drivers and passengers. Perhaps with the advent of 5G, we can also hand over the steering wheel to artificial intelligence on the road and ** "Peppa Pig" with our children.

In addition, smart terminals with flexible screens have also been mass-produced, and the response from the market is also very good. For example, Nubia, which was listed a few days ago, has achieved true soft screen flexibility with the help of flexible screens, turning smartphones into smart terminals on the wrist. and ZTE Tianji AXON Pro 5G, which achieves a thinner screen thickness through a flexible screen with on-cell technology, setting a new record for a mobile phone with a high screen-to-body ratio.

I suspect that this is a projection, and the cost of the flexible screen can't be worth it.

The traffic police corps of the Shanghai Municipal Public Security Bureau said today that it will project the "Wandering Earth" version of safety tips on the back windows of some taxis in the city: "There are thousands of roads, safety first, ** is not standardized, and relatives are in tears." It is divided into three versions, which are respectively prompted by people walking, cycling, and driving.

Remember to obey the traffic rules!

First, it's soft!

This softness can actually be understood as strong flexibility. In other words, this kind of display can be bent and folded.

As you can see in the image above, this screen can be bent in an "S" shape. This can be used in a variety of wearable electronic devices in the future.

Second, it's pretty!

This kind of flexible display has the advantages of high resolution, fast response, high brightness, and low power consumption, which can provide more gorgeous and clearer high image quality.

Chengdu's 6th generation flexible AMOLED production line applies the world's most advanced evaporation process, cutting the glass substrate into half for evaporation, which is technically difficult, and is the first AMOLED production line in China to adopt this process.

At the same time, the production line uses low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS) plastic substrates instead of traditional amorphous silicon (A-Si) glass substrates, and adopts flexible packaging technology to realize the bending and folding of display screens.

First of all, it is soft, which allows for better bending.

Nubia, a flexible screen product that has been on the market, has achieved a minimum bending radius of 8 mm, which meets people's requirements for wearing.

According to the concept products of screen manufacturers such as BOE and Visionox, flexible AMOLED screens have achieved a minimum bending radius of millimeters. In addition, the current flexible screen concept products have realized various forms such as inward folding, outward folding, two-folding, three-folding, and curling.

Secondly, it is thin and light.

The upcoming ZTE Axon 10 Pro 5G is a good example. The screen is exclusively supplied by Visionox (Gu'an) G6 fully flexible production line, and is the first product in China to adopt flexible On-Cell technology to achieve a thinner and lighter screen. Compared with conventional screens, AMOLED screens with on-cell technology can reduce the thickness by 30%.

Personally, I think that the current flexible screen is definitely not a pseudo demand.

First, the existing hard screen has come to an end with the arrival of the narrow bezel screen. The advent of curved screens and full screens has given birth to the development of flexible screens, and the existing terminal products also show that this development trend is inevitable.

Second, the flexible screen production line has basically matured, and manufacturers such as Visionox and BOE have successively put into production the sixth-generation line. For example, Visionox has launched the G6AMOLED production line on May 17, 2018 and achieved mass production. The sixth-generation line built in Hefei supports high-end customization and is ready for the customized production of flexible screens.

All this proves that the production of flexible AMOLED screens is ready and capable of mass production.

Third, the advent of the era of 5G and the Internet of Things can enable more computing to be realized through the cloud, so the form of terminals can become more diverse (because there is no need for a stronger CPU), and perhaps in the future, we only need one screen to be able to play "Chicken" and "Honor of Kings".

Therefore, in fact, the manufacturer's flexible screen research and development results may make many people think that they do not meet their own needs, but no one can say what the future needs will be. Just like the person who took the big brother, he may not have thought that the current iPhone can make the numeric keypad disappear completely.

There's no doubt that flexible screens are great for gaming devices, but they don't seem to be suitable for phones due to the need for users to control with both hands. Of course, Nokia Kinetic is just a concept, but Kinetic provides a reference for the product design of flexible screens.

In 2013, Samsung launched the flexible OLED screen Youm. Samsung says Youm screens use a standard OLED design, but film film replaces glass substrates.

LG is also mass-producing flexible screens, but its E-Ink screens are only geared towards e-readers. The e-ink screen has a diagonal length of 6 inches and a resolution of 1024 768. Like Samsung's screens, LG's E-Ink screens are also designed with film films.

Atmel, which provides touch sensors for tablets and mobile phones, has also developed technology for flexible screens. Atmel has launched a new touch sensor called Xsense. According to Atmel, Xsense can provide touch technology for flexible screens, even when the screen is bent to varying degrees, maintaining perfect and accurate touch performance and clarity.

The Xsense touch sensor is available now, and the product is expected to be available in the third quarter of 2013.

Flexible screen is a big concept,In fact, it has long been commercialized in large quantities,Samsung's AMOLED curved screen is a kind of,Recently, there are folding screens from Huawei and Samsung,Nubia alpha,And now you see that almost every Internet café uses a curved screen。

Yes, our company is producing.

Flexible display, using phoLED phosphorescent OLED technology, with low power consumption, direct visible flexible panel, made of soft material, variable bendable display device. The main feature is that it is designed for the cockpit of future pilots, and the use of non-glass materials does not affect the safety of catapult skydiving.

Flexible displays are flexible display devices made of soft materials and can be bent. As thin as paper, the contents do not disappear even if the power supply is cut off, so it is also called "electronic paper". Arizona State University's Center for Flexible Displays (FDC) has announced a breakthrough flexible display technology developing the world's first touchscreen active matrix display on a sparosible, glass-free substrate that is the first to demonstrate the ability of flexible electronic displays to enable instant user input.

The result of this breakthrough is the combination of low-temperature thin-film transistor technology at the center of flexible displays, high-performance polyethylene naphthalate from DuPont Teijin Film and VizplexTM from E Ink to form an active matrix electrophoresis (e-paper) display. The touch screen function integrates a low-power display controller jointly developed by E Ink and Epson.
