Hōʻike ʻo Smartkem i ka MicroLED Smart Backlight: He Lele i mua no nā Hōʻike LCD Automotive
Ma ʻApelila 15, 2025, ua hana ʻo Smartkem (Nasdaq: SMTK), he alakaʻi i ka ʻoihana uila, i kahi hanana koʻikoʻi ma ka hālāwai kūkā ʻo Touch Taiwan 2025. Ua hōʻike ka hui i kahi hōʻike o kāna MicroLED ʻO Smart Backlight, kahi hana kupanaha ʻenehana me ka hiki ke hoʻololi i ke aniani wai nā hōʻike (LCD) ma ka ʻāpana kaʻa.
Ke kikowaena nei ka hana hou a Smartkem a puni ka "MiP4," kahi pūʻolo e hoʻohui ana i ʻehā Nā MicroLED. Hoʻokō ʻia kēia hoʻohui ʻana ma o ka hoʻolālā mua o ka hui a me nā mea semiconductor dielectric interlayer kū hoʻokahi. Ua hōʻike ʻia ka noi mua o ka MiP4, he 12.3-'īniha MicroLED Smart Backlight, ma ka hanana. I loko o ka ʻoihana kaʻa, kahi i ʻike nui ʻia ai nā pale LCD, hāʻawi kēia ʻenehana backlight hou i nā pono kūikawā. Hāʻawi ia i ka mālamalama kiʻekiʻe a me ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka ʻokoʻa, he mea nui ia no ka ʻike ʻana i nā kūlana hoʻokele like ʻole, mai ka lā mālamalama a i nā wahi haʻahaʻa.
Ua hōʻike ʻo Ian Jenks, ke Luna Hoʻomalu a me ka Luna Nui o Smartkem, i kona hoihoi e pili ana i ka hōʻike. "Hauʻoli mākou e hōʻike i ka hoʻohana mua ʻana o kā mākou MiP4 ma Touch Taiwan. Loaʻa i kā mākou mau mea semiconductor kū hoʻokahi ka mana e hoʻololi i nā mākeke hōʻikeʻike e kū nei, ʻoiai ke kaʻa." LCD ʻāpana. Me ke kaʻa hōʻike ua manaʻo ʻia ka mākeke e ʻoi aku ma mua o 25 miliona mau ʻāpana ma ka makahiki 2030, e like me ka Omdia Report 2023, a me kēlā me kēia ʻāpana e hoʻohana ana ma mua o 500 MiP4s, nui ka manawa kūpono no Smartkem," wahi āna.
Ma ka lā 16 o ʻApelila, 2025, i ka hola 4:00 o ka manawa kūloko, e piʻi ana ʻo Jenks i ke kahua ma Touch Taiwan 2025 e hāʻawi i kahi haʻiʻōlelo koʻikoʻi ma ka MicroLED Kukui Akamai. Manaʻo ʻia e luʻu hohonu kēia haʻiʻōlelo i loko o ka ʻenehana, kāna kaʻina hana hoʻomohala, a me kona mau hopena ākea no ka wā e hiki mai ana o nā hōʻikeʻike.
ʻAʻole wale ka MiP4 he mea maikaʻi no nā kaʻa Nā LCD akā he mau noi ākea hoʻi. Ua hoʻolālā ʻia e pani i nā mea e kū nei MiniLED nā pūʻolo i loko o nā kukui LCD a me nā hōʻailona. Ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia me nā MiniLED, hāʻawi ka MiP4 i ka hana i hoʻomaikaʻi ʻia ma kahi hoʻohana mana haʻahaʻa, e unuhi ana i ka mālama ikehu. Eia kekahi, loaʻa iā ia ka hiki ke hōʻemi i nā kumukūʻai hana me ka mālama ʻana i ka kūlike me nā lako hana make-bonding MiniLED e kū nei. Hoʻonohonoho ʻia nā MiP4s e hoʻouna ʻia i loko o kahi ʻano polū-lipine, e hoʻomaʻamaʻa ana i ka hoʻohui maʻalahi i nā laina hana e kū nei o ka ʻoihana.
No nā noi hōʻike MicroLED, he mea hoʻololi pāʻani ke kaʻina hana haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa a Smartkem. Hiki iā ia ke ninini pololei ʻia nā transistors wai ma luna o nā MicroLED, e hoʻopau ana i ka pono no nā kaʻina hana hana pipiʻi a haʻahaʻa ka hua e hoʻohana ʻia nei. Manaʻo ʻia kēia hana hou e hōʻemi i nā hemahema hana a hoʻonui i nā hua. Eia kekahi, hiki ke hoʻokomo maʻalahi ʻia i loko o ke kahua hana hana e kū nei, e hana ana i nā hōʻike MicroLED i ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma ke kālepa ma nā ʻāpana he nui, me nā kelepona akamai, nā mea hiki ke komo, a me nā hōʻailona kikohoʻe.
Hoʻokele ʻo Smartkem i kāna hoʻolālā mea a me ka hoʻomohala ʻana ma kāna hale hana R&D ma Manchester, UK. Hāʻawi pū ia i nā lawelawe prototyping ma ke Center for Process Innovation (CPI) ma Sedgefield, UK. Me kahi keʻena noi kahua ma Hsinchu, Taiwan, kokoke i kāna hoa, ʻo ka Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI), ua kūlana maikaʻi ʻo Smartkem no ka laulima ʻana a me ke komo ʻana i ka mākeke. ʻO ka waihona waiwai noʻonoʻo nui o ka hui, nona nā palapala sila i hāʻawi ʻia he 138 ma waena o 17 mau ʻohana palapala sila, 16 mau palapala sila e kali ana, a me 40 mau mea huna kālepa i hoʻopaʻa ʻia, e hoʻopaʻa hou ana i kona kūlana ma ka mākeke uila hoʻokūkū.
I ka neʻe ʻana o Smartkem i mua, manaʻo ia e hoʻomohala i nā kaʻina hana hana kalepa a me nā mea hana Electronic Design Automation (EDA). Ke kālele nei kēia mau hana i ka hōʻike ʻana i ke kūlana kalepa o ka hana ʻana i kahi hanauna hou o nā hōʻikeʻike me ka hoʻohana ʻana i kāna mau mea holomua.
Eia nō naʻe, e like me nā ʻoihana ʻenehana āpau, ke kū nei ʻo Smartkem i nā mea kānalua. ʻO nā ʻōlelo e nānā ana i mua o ka ʻoihana e pili ana i ke kūlana mākeke, ka hoʻomohala huahana, a me ke kūʻai aku e pili ana i nā manaʻolana o kēia manawa, nā kuhi, a me nā wānana. Pili kēia i nā pilikia a me nā mea kānalua i paʻakikī ke wānana, a hiki ke ʻokoʻa nui nā hopena maoli.
I ka hopena, ʻo ka hōʻike ʻana o Smartkem's MicroLED Smart Backlight he hōʻailona koʻikoʻi i ka ʻenehana hōʻike. He manaʻolana nui ia no ka ʻoihana kaʻa a ma waho aku, hiki ke hoʻololi hou i ke ʻano o kā mākou launa pū ʻana me nā hōʻike i loko o kā mākou mau kaʻa a me nā mea hana ʻē aʻe.
