Improvement of cost and quality for manufacturing of flexible display with help of simpler handling of sheets and increase of process robustness

Abstract (English)

Projects aims at improving the quality and cost structure of innovative plastic displays produced in Switzerland. Characterisation of newly developed processes and understanding of root cause for new defects will help increase yield and produce more robust products. A second tier aims at increasing the size of substrates used in this batch process. The work will investigate the gluing of larger soft plastic sheets on a rigid substrate to simplify handling, thus reducing defects while increasing number of devices produced. A doubling of substrate dimensions is targeted.
