Unidym Inc., a subsidiary of Arrowhead Research Corp., has entered into a second joint development agreement with Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. to extend their collaboration into a second year.
The companies have been working to integrate carbon nanotube materials as the transparent conductive layer in display devices. With carbon nanotubes, Samsung in May demonstrated a working prototype of a carbon nanotube-based active matrix electrophoretic display (EPD) e-paper technology.
Carbon nanotubes simplify the transparent conductor deposition process because they can be wet processed utilizing printing techniques, or through roll to roll coating processes, in contrast to the current more difficult and time-consuming vacuum sputtering deposition process required by indium tin oxide and indium zinc oxide.
