OTFTs using SmartKem materials can be used to manufacture active matrix
backplanes, driving arrays of thousands of individual mini-LEDs on a substrate,
thereby delivering impressive high resolution images with perfect black levels.
The ability to locally dim the backlight to only the areas that require it can
also help to save energy, making FALD LED TVs more efficient in operation.
"Our mini-LED backlight prototype has caught the attention of the market," said
Ian Jenks, Chairman and CEO of SmartKem Ltd. "We have best-in-class OTFT
materials, suited for a variety of applications ranging from Electrophoretic,
LCD, MicroLED and OLED displays."
SmartKem's approach in developing the organic semiconductor formulations was to
design a series of high mobility polycrystalline small molecule(s) that are combined
with matched, high permittivity semiconducting oligomer(s). The resultant OTFT
devices have industry best performance and can be built using standard production
equipment in existing factories.
SmartKem will showcase its technology at the DisplayWeek 2020
