Flat Panel Display Manufacturing

Given the rapid progress and central role in the future evolution of consumer electronic devices, this book will fill an important gap in the current book literature describing the state of the art in display manufacturing for today squo;s displays, and looking to enabling technology for next generation displays.

The editorial team brings a broad and deep perspective on the development of flat panel display manufacturing, with a global view spanning decades of experience at leading institutions in Japan, Korea, Taiwan and USA, and including direct pioneering contributions to the development of displays. The objective of this book is to give a broad overview of the manufacturing of flat panel displays, with a particular emphasis on the display systems at the forefront of the current mobile device revolution. The bookesquo;s content is structured to cover a broad spectrum of topics within the unifying theme of display systems manufacturing. An important theme of this book is treating displays as systems, which expands the scope beyond the technologies and manufacturing of display panels (LCD and OLED) to also include key components for mobile device applications, such as touch screens, thin backlights, as well as the manufacturing of display module assemblies with which end-users have direct experience.
