December 6, 2012, Printed Electronics USA, Santa Clara, CA—Erkki Soininen Canatu from Canatu described the work in carbon nanotubes and fullerenes for flexible and formable touch screens. The materials are positioned as replacements for ITO-based touch sensors. Carbon nanotubes with a fullerene attached are conductive, transparent, non-reflective, and flexible as conductors. This work is addressing…
August 13, 2012, Display Search Emerging Display Technology Conference, Santa Clara, CA—Michael Spaid from Cambrios talked about new transparent conductive materials for touch sensors. The availability of rare earth materials like indium is driving the industry to look at alternatives. The number of layers requiring transparent conductors in touch displays is increasing and getting more…
August 17, 2011, Emerging Display Technologies Conference, San Jose, CA—Rahul Gupta from Cambios talked about transparent conductors for displays. The drive for higher performance and resolution is driving the industry towards alternatives to ITO (indium tin oxide) for on-surface transparent conductors. Transparent conductors are processed as a coating material, either some type of ink or…
