Coherent | Now, Next and Beyond - Episode 5/Part 2: Display Manufacturing

In part two of our series with Oliver Haupt, the conversation covers various topics related to
display technologies, including eco-friendly materials, foldable and rollable displays,
micro-LEDs, glass in displays, and displays in automotive and consumer devices. The use of
cadmium compounds in current displays is a concern due to their environmental and health
impact, but there is a shift towards more eco-friendly materials. Foldable and rollable displays
are similar in architecture, but their applications differ. Micro-LEDs offer advantages such as
smaller pixel size, durability, and integrated sensors. Glass is an essential component in
displays, providing structural support, transparency, and electrical insulation. Displays in
automotive and consumer devices are evolving, with OLED displays gaining popularity. The
future of displays includes high-resolution, low-power options for home appliances. The SID
exhibition showcases exciting developments in various display technologies.
