Unidym,
Inc, a majority-owned subsidiary of Arrowhead Research
Corporation, announced today that it will participate in the upcoming
Society for Information Display (SID) International Symposium, Seminar
and Exhibition at the Los Angeles Convention Center May 18th through
23rd. The company will be exhibiting its carbon nanotube-based
transparent conductive electrodes designed for use in displays and
touch panels at its booth (#504). In addition, Unidym's CTO, Dr. Paul
Drzaic, will chair a session discussing e-paper (Session 46) and
present a short paper (Session 37.4) discussing the integration of
carbon nanotube-based transparent electrodes into display applications.
Unidym is a leader in the development and manufacture of
carbon nanotubes for applications in the electronics industry. The
company's transparent conductive electrodes are designed to directly
replace the ITO-based electrodes currently used in touch screens and
LCD displays. These flexible transparent electrodes use encapsulated,
conductive networks of carbon nanotubes placed on a variety of
substrate materials. Unidym has been working closely with display and
touch screen manufacturers to ensure the electrodes meet their
established requirements.
Dr. Drzaic heads Unidym's technology strategy and advanced
development program. His publications include numerous articles in
various journals and symposia proceedings, plus an extensive book
concerning liquid crystal technology. He holds over 50 US Patents in
display, flexible electronics, printed electronics and RFID
technologies. Dr. Drzaic is a Fellow of SID, has organized several
major SID conferences, and has served on the SID Board of Directors for
the past six years.
With over 6,000 members, SID is the leading international
professional society exclusively devoted to the advancement of
electronic-display technology, manufacturing, and applications. SID
promotes industry and academic technology development, and educates the
general public on coming trends in display technology. SID also brings
today's display technology leaders together-accelerating progress and
collaboration.
