About 20 years ago, Hongxing Jiang and Jingyu Lin published a paper describing the microLED. Since the publishing of that seminal work, microLEDs have seen commercialization in automotive and industrial lighting applications, but for much of that time, Jiang and Lin’s envisioned application in display technology had been simmering on the backburner. Now, the technology is becoming a household name. With the holiday season approaching, consumers shopping for a new TV are noticing that the top of the line isn’t just populated with OLED models. While manufacturing challenges remain, microLEDs offer a wonderful marriage of efficiency, brightness, and sheer possibility, even beyond display and lighting applications. In this episode, Jiang and Lin discuss the path from paper to commercialization, and the road ahead and what possibilities the future holds.Sponsored by:Block Engineering — www.blockeng.comXimea GmbH — www.ximea.com"All Things Photonics"® is produced by Photonics Media and airs biweekly, on Tuesdays.
