Perfecting the Polychromatic Pixel
Micro light emitting diodes (microLEDs) are the ideal display technology due to their high brightness, fast response, long lifetime, and energy efficiency, yet their enormous market potential is hindered by technical and cost-prohibitive manufacturing challenges. Q-Pixel’s revolutionary technologies include 1) single fully color-tunable pixels, without red/green/blue (RGB) subpixels and 2) assembly technology for high-yield, high-throughput, large area microLED displays orders of magnitude faster than traditional mass transfer, at significantly reduced cost. Q-Pixel’s technologies simplify display assembly, reduce manufacturing costs, and enable world-record pixel densities for ultra-high resolution displays suitable for AR/VR/XR. Q-Pixel’s Tunable Polychromatic-LED technology has enabled world records for highest full color display (10000 PPI), smallest full color pixel (1 micron diameter) and world’s highest resolution (6800 PPI microLED) active-matrix color display.
