Printing Color Electronic Displays

摘要

Developments in low-cost electronics manufacture, coupled with advances in printing and imaging technology, will open opportunities in electronic displays—some using adaptations of traditional print technology. This isn't unprecedented. At the arrival of printed circuit boards in the 1960s, photo emulsions, step-and-repeat and etching processes used in litho platemaking were adapted to foster growth of a large electronics industry. Today, technologies such as nano inkjet are positioned to grow into applications supporting low-cost large computer display production and even high-definition television displays (HDTVs).
