AMORPHYX PRESENTS THE BENEFITS OF BULK ACCUMULATION AT ICDT2023

Amorphyx presented the benefits of bulk accumulation and high field strength through a smooth gate metal at ICDT 2023 in Nanjing. Amorphyx also presented a universal model for determining peak mobility and work on parasitic capacitance modelling of bottom gate top contact TFTs

“DIsplay daily” on replacing LTPO with IGZO AMeTFT 2T1C

Ian Hendy of Hendy Consulting writers: “It is clear that refresh rate is a basis of product performance that is here to stay. With implications for better high-end gaming and low-refresh-battery enhancement this is a key product differentiator. Apple chose one path that was theoretically strong but practically difficult. Amorphyx opens up another path and new strategic options for smartphone backplanes.”

AMORPHYX'S AMNR-LCD BACKPLANE TECHNOLOGY FEATURED IN RESEARCH COLLABORATION WITH BOE AT DISPLAY WEEK

Amorphyx, an electronic device technology startup based in the US Pacific Northwest, is demonstrating the world's first use of quantum tunneling electronics to replace thin film transistors in LCD backplanes. The 5-inch diagonal 85ppi 60 Hz refresh rate color LCD integrates the fast, flexible and simple Amorphous Metal Nonlinear Resistor (AMNR) backplane circuit technology with ADvanced Super Dimension Switch (ADSDS) pixel technology owned by BOE, a global leader in semiconductor display industry as well as a supplier of IoT technologies, products and services. The combination creates an LCD with the image quality of UHD TV from a dramatically simplified backplane fabrication process.

Amorphyx replaces the semiconductor-based thin film transistors (TFT) used in today's display backplanes with quantum tunneling to improve image quality, increase fabrication plant output capacity, and reduce panel manufacturing cost. Quantum tunneling electronic devices leverage the properties of quantum physics to simplify device physical structure while increasing switching speed and eliminating leakage current. The prototype LCDs on exhibition in Display Week's I-Zone feature 65% aperture ratio and a 1000:1 contrast ratio. The AMNR technology supports over 50,000-hour display lifetimes in the UHD LCD TV application.

This breakthrough in thin film electronics technology was jointly designed and fabricated by BOE R&D Center and Amorphyx in less than 6 months. The prototypes were fabricated on G2.5 glass. Thin film depositions were performed by Amorphyx's R&D lab in Corvallis, Oregon, and BOE's laboratory line in Beijing. Amorphyx's AMNR-LCD driver system prototype features the flexibility of the AMNR technology for optimizing image quality in response to variations in manufacturing quality.

In addition to the I-Zone exhibition, Amorphyx CEO John Brewer presents the company in the afternoon "Advanced Materials/Processes Enabling Displays of the Future" session of Tuesday's Investors Conference.
