Nanotechnology & MEMS Applications in Optics and Displays Lead to a Breakthrough in Wireless Device Screens

Optics is one of the hottest fields in technology in general, with uses in a wide variety of applications including manufacturing, display systems, bar code readers and networks. Nanotechnology promises to bring a completely new line of optical tools and instruments to the field. Most of the research thus far into nano-optics has been in two areas: lasers and displays.

Nanotechnology offers carbon nanotubes, which can be used as tiny diodes or light emitters, and, when packed together on a flat surface, can form an entire display for anything from a smartwatch to a large computer screen. Theoretically, these displays could be made less expensively than LCDs, would use little power and would be thinner than the thinnest flat-panel. The most advanced technology in this area is called Field Emission Display (FED), a self-luminescent display that can be extremely thin, draw very low power and be very bright from all angles and in all types of light. Samsung subsidiary Samsung SDI is a leader in this field. Early applications include high-end plasma television and computer monitors.
