3D Nanowire MicroLED developer Aledia announced the commercial availability of FlexiNova, its patented high-voltage microLED platform designed to unlock scalable, energy-efficient Direct-View microLED displays for global markets.
15x30 µm² 6V FlexiNOVA microLEDs assembled on a 400 µm pitch backplane
The company says it is the first in the world to successfully manufacture 3D Nanowire based microLEDs operating at 6V, with an ultra-compact 15 µm × 30 µm single body chip size, manufactured on 200 mm silicon wafers. The company, together with its partner CEA-Leti, is continuing to develop the technology and is developing a full portfolio of 6V and 9V operation with a constant efficiency for chip sizes down to 3.5 µm.
Aledia says that FlexiNova features:
- Nanowire based device architectures
- Single body High-voltage blue MicroLED designs (6V / 9V and beyond)
- Integration on 200 mm silicon wafer
- Standard Silicon manufacturing processes
- High efficiency microLEDs for any chip size down to 3.5 µm
