Reports from Korea suggest that Apple may further delay its first microLED watch to 2027

Apple started developing microLED displays for wearable devices years ago, first aiming to launch the first product in 2023. The project was delayed several times, as the cost of production for microLED displays is still too high for Apple.

Last year TrendForce estimated that Apple will not be able to introduce its first microLED watch until 2026 - and now we hear some new reports that suggest that this won't happen until 2027 at the earliest.

STRATACACHE to integrate Lumiode's backplane deposition technology in its microLED fab in Eugene, Oregon

US-based signage leader STRATACACHE announced that it has signed a strategic research and IP licensing agreement with US-based Lumiode that will enable STRATACACHE to integrate Lumiode's technology in its upcoming E4 microLED production line in Eugene, Oregon.

Lumiode's technology enables the deposition of an active matrix backplane directly on the LED structure. Lumiode's technology enables the production of both large-area displays and small microdisplays, and it is likely that STRATACACHE is interested in the former.

Avantama and Scrona collaborate to show how perovskite QDs can be inkjet printed on microLEDs using EHD

Scrona, developer of high-precision electrohydrodynamic (EHD) inkjet print heads joined forces with Avantama, developer and manufacturer of high-tech materials for electronics, and have successfully processed high-performance perovskite quantum dot (QD) ink using Scrona's EHD inkjet printing. 

The two companies specifically target microLED displays with this development, as depositing QDs on microLEDs requires extremely high precision. They have demonstrated that an OD greater than 1 can be obtained with a perovskite QD layer thickness below 2µm. This can reduce the printhead nozzle count by a factor of five (compared to current non-EHD inkjet solutions) and deliver a thin QD layer that improves the overall efficiency and production tact time of MicroLED display technology.

Oxford Instruments installs its 200 mm ALD passivation tool at a UK-based microLED microdisplay developer

UK-based Oxford Instruments Plasma Technology announced that it has installed one of its 200 mm atomic layer deposition (ALD) passivation systems at a UK microLED provider, in order to support the customer's latest AR microdisplay development and production. The OIPT system is used to deposit high-K dielectric ultra-thin films for high-density, very high-brightness, low-power and high frame-rate RGB pixel arrays.

OIPT says that its low-damage plasma ALD technology is optimized for smaller dies with smaller active areas, and was shown in some cases by its customers at ICNS to double external quantum efficiency.
