A Novel Laser Processing Solution for Transparent Materials

3D-Micromac AG, the industry leader in laser micromachining, will introduce its FSL (Flow Supported Laser Ablation) technology at Display Week 2016. The sophisticated machining strategy is perfectly suited for the generation of structures such as taper-free holes or even holes with negative taper and columns with rectangular walls in glass, sapphire, and other transparent materials. Typical dimensions of those structures are in the range of a few 10 µm up to a few 100 µm. The machining, performed by an ultrashort-pulsed laser, is stress-free and without thermal impact. The achievable wall roughness is ~ 0.5 µm (Ra). The FSLA technology opens up new vistas for the production of shaped holes and nozzles and surface modifications in display glass or sapphire.

Display Solutions

Tesa’s solutions for displays include Optically Clear Adhesives for the bonding of displays and barrier adhesive tapes for OLED encapsulation, suitable for flexible-panel production. Among the barrier tapes available, a product range consisting of an UV-curable barrier adhesive is offered. In an uncured state, the tape shows very good conformability and wetting performance. Low polarity and a getter function activated by UV-curing make this adhesive a highly effective barrier against oxygen and water-vapor while the tape still remains flexible and highly transparent. The barrier tapes are perfectly applicable for rigid and flexible devices and can be used in roll-to-roll processes.

Quantum-Dot Luminescent Micro-Sphere

The Quantum-Dot Luminescent Micro-Sphere (QLMS), developed by ZH-QTech Co., Ltd., is a new type of highly robust quantum-dot (QD) composite featuring high efficiency, narrow full width at half-maximum (FWHM), and excellent long-term operation stability.  QLMS is fully compatible with current LED packaging process and can be used as phosphors for direct on-chip applications, i.e., a tube or film is no longer required. QLMS will make it more convenient and cost efficient for manufacturers to adopt QDs in flat-panel displays with wide color gamut and LED lighting with high color rendering.
