Flat Panel Displays have become ubiquitous in products ranging from cell phones to televisions; the market for flat panels is expected to exceed $65 Billion in 2005. This Emerging Technology Seminar will feature a distinguished panel of speakers sharing their expertise on a wide array of new types of displays, including Field Emission, Organic Light Emitting Diodes, Reflective Displays and Projection. Critical component requirements for flexibility and backlighting will also be highlighted. Leading industry experts will also share their perspectives on the current market and provide projections for future growth. With the rewards so great, the rate of technological change is intense and offers unique opportunities for both researchers and entrepreneurs. This seminar, which is co-sponsored by Boston University and Corning Incorporated, is intended for engineers and scientists from both academia and industry.
Our Spring 2005 Emerging Technology and Best Industries Practices Seminar will be sponsored by Corning Display Technologies, a worldwide leading supplier of large-generation glass substrates for the active matrix liquid crystal display (LCD) industry. LCDs are used in desktop monitors, LCD TVs, notebook computers, and electronics products such as video and digital cameras, cell phones, and personal digital assistants (PDAs). Corning’s substrates, manufactured through a proprietary fusion-forming process, help companies meet ongoing demand for devices that are larger, sharper, brighter and more durable than ever before.
