Early last month, Philips Polymer Vision, a business unit within Philips Technology Incubator, Royal Philips Electronics, revealed its Concept Readius rollable display at the Internationale Funkausstellung (IFA) in Berlin, Germany. The company claims Readius is the world`s first prototype of a functional electronic-document reader that can unroll its display to a scale larger than the device itself.
With four gray levels, the monochrome, 5-inch QVGA (320×240 pixels) display provides paper-like viewing with a high contrast ratio for reading-intensive applications, including text, graphics, and electronic maps and the display can be rolled back into a pocket-size (100×60×20 mm) device.


And look at this!!

Plastic Electronics Markets: A Technology Analysis and Eight-Year Forecast

Description: We believe that plastic electronics, using conductive polymers or organic molecules on a plastic substrate, will present major new opportunities over the coming decade. Unlike conventional CMOS approaches, plastic electronics does not require very high-volume manufacturing to produce low-cost devices. More significantly, the physical nature of plastic electronics suggests products, such as flexible displays and ultra-low-cost RFID tags, which would not be economically conceivable using any other technology platform.

A few products based on plastic electronics are beginning to appear on the market. Philips is already making roll-up displays in production quantities and conductive plastics are used in electromagnetic shielding for circuitry. However, we believe that there will be a considerable expansion in the range of products and in the market size for plastic electronics products over the next few years. To provide clients with guidance on where the most attractive opportunities lie, we are releasing this new report, which combines a technology assessment, eight-year market forecast and appraisal of the market strategies of leading firms active in the plastic electronic business.

Durchwachsende Woche!

Hallo Mig!

The last two days have been rather strange. Drom august until now Obducat have been heavily discussed at especially the forum aktietips.com.
But yesterday it suddenly stopped. The team behind the coursemanipulation, who did everything and even more, to talk bad about Obducat just disappeared. The most of the Obdufans also was away. Today it was the same.
No discussion at all until late afternoon when Obdu fell some percent.
Rhough I still think the atmosphere around Obdu is good and the fans still believe in it.
One small rumor appeared today and that was that Obducat have had some important businesspeople in Malmoe for just as important meetings. I don´t know more about that.
It hasn´t been much talk about the upcoming report of 27 oct. Of course that is a result of the lack of information från Obducat. Maybe we have to prepare us for some boring report, but that won´t change anything in the long perspectíve I think.
Obducat WILL get the order(s), but the question is when. Next week or next year.

About that there already are NIL-products on the market the reactions were rather calm. Most of the active Obdu-fans seemed to have heard about it before. But that is good news anyway.

I have noticed an possible (not confirmed) connection between the american company Moxtek, the Japanese Polatechno (who owns Moxtek) and Obducat.

With its acquisition of MOXTEK, Polatechno becomes a market leader in optical parts for LCD projectors. Known in the market as a reliable supplier, PLC now offers a variety of high-tech products under one umbrella. PLC serves the world market with its production facilities in Niigata, Japan and Wuxi/Zhuhai, China; its research and production facilities in Japan, The Netherlands and the United States; and its distribution partnerships in Hong Kong, South Korea and Taiwan.

MOXTEK has agreed to be acquired by Polatechno Ltd. (PLC) of Tokyo, Japan in a transaction that must be ratified by MOXTEK shareholders. "MOXTEK is excited about the potential to expand its leading-edge technologies into new market areas with PLC`s strong manufacturing focus and successful worldwide marketing activities. We feel that PLC will provide the support needed to meet the rapid growth expected in the dynamic display market and will maintain the service focus and independence in the analytical components market," states Glenn Stewart, President of MOXTEK.

Have a nice weekend and fingers crossed for big big order next week

olosch...in schweden ging es heute, wenn auch bei sehr niedrigen umsätzen nach unten. wie ist ist die stimmung in schweden bzw. in den dortigen boards u. was erwartet man dort vom 27.10.05?
gab es irgendwelche reaktionen darauf, dass schon nil-produkte verkauft werden die mit deren nil-maschine hergestellt werden?

gruss

[Baroni]

Wie die Historie gezeigt hat, sind die Monate September und Oktober für eine angenehme Schiffsreise denkbar ungeeignet. Die Queen Obducat bewegt sich da noch in vergleichsweise ruhigen Gewässern, im Gegensatz zu manch anderen Luxuslinern, wie z. B. der Queen Biophan, deren Passagiere momentan mit einer stürmischen, rauhen See zu kämpfen haben und denen seit Wochen ein kalter, eisiger Wind ins Gesicht weht. So freuen wir uns denn auf die nächsten Wochen, insbesondere auf das Jahresende, eine Zeit, die traditionell meist mit guter Stimmung an Bord und angenehmen Reisebedingungen verbunden ist.

Die Crew ist bester Hoffnung, die Passagieren im nächsten Jahr mit einer neuen, mehr die nördlichen Gefilde ansteuernden und insgesamt interessanteren Reiseroute erfreuen zu können.


Der Captain übt jetzt noch ein bißchen Karate mit dem Schiffsarzt und wünscht allen schon jetzt ein schönes Wochenende.....

Abstract. We report the fabrication of a 50 nm half-pitch wire grid polarizer with high performance using nanoimprint lithography.
The device is a form of aluminium gratings on aglass substrate whose size of 5.5 cm × 5.5 cm is compatible with a microdisplay panel. A stamp with a pitch of 100 nm was fabricated on a silicon substrate using laser interference lithography and sidewall patterning.
The imprint and the aluminium etching processes are optimized to realize uniform aluminium gratings with aspect ratio of 4.
The polarization extinction ratio of the fabricated device is over 2000, with transmission of 85% at a wavelength of 450 nm, which is the highest value ever reported.
This work demonstrates that nanoimprint lithography is a unique cost-effective solution for nanopatterning requirements in consumer electronics components.

THREE QUESTIONS TO
Dr Ki-Dong Lee
LG Electronics

Why did LG Electronics choose Obducat as partner to deliver the 4" NIL machine You now are using?

LG Electronics started a nanoimprint project in October, 2002. We had to choose the most reliable machine which also has flexibility and multi-function. At that time, Obducat was a unique company who´s machines are in operation worldwide with a proof of excellent performance.
Moreover, the machine can be used for both thermal and UV NIL processes in a single unit. One more reason was that Obducat’s machine was most competitive in tool cost, considering the function and performance.

How important is Nanotechnology/ Nano Imprint Lithography for LG Electronics future work?

LG Electronics is aglobal player in consumer electronics including home appliance, flat panel displays, and mobile handset. In order to strengthen the global competitiveness in its various products, the technology leadership is indispensable, especially in the core components.
Nanotechnology is expected to play an important role in that point.
One example is the 50nm half-pitch wire grid polarizer that we developed with nanoimprint technology. Use of such a high-performance optical component can increase the contrast of projection TV considerably, which will ultimately enhance the business competency in projection TV of LG Electronics.

How do You see the cooperation with Obducat - today and in the future?

At the early stage of use of Obducat’s machine, I could not be satisfied with Obducat’s reaction to our request for solving the trouble in operation of the machine. The reaction was too slow to meet the tight internal schedule of the technology development.
However, I see now that the support for the customer has been much improved with the expansion of business of Obducat.
To be successful in commercialization of any nanoscale device, LG Electronics needs to find a close business partner in tool development which has a leading technology as well as a mutual trust.
I believe Obducat is such a partner which has agreat potential to lead the future nanotechnology market together with LG Electronics.

I have found some other goodies to, but I´ll be back with that.

Don´t sell...just enjoy the journey and relax.
