ON THE COVER: Advanced Flat-Panel Displays
and Materials. Recent advances in technology and materials for
flat-panel displays have enabled novel applications and high-performance
devices in a range of sizes. (upper left) A radiographic image
of a skull phantom (a model designed especially for medical imaging)
taken by a prototype 9 in. x 9 in. amorphous selenium digital
flat-panel x-ray detector. (upper right)
A bright bouquet of flowers shown on a prototype 15-in.-diagonal
in-plane switching mode liquid-crystal display designed to improve
color tracking. (lower left) A 240 x 160 pixel active-matrix
electronic-ink display fabricated on a flexible steel-foil substrate
less than 0.3 mm thick. (lower right) Still image on a 1.4-in.-diagonal
96 x 64 pixel (x3 for red, green, and blue subpixels) 85-ppi
(pixels per inch) full-color ink-jet-printed polymer light-emitting
diode video display with 4-bit gray scale. The smaller image
(and background of cover) shows electroluminescence from RGB
polymer subpixels ink-jet-printed at 127-ppi (66 µm x 200
µm) resolution. See the technical theme that begins on
p. 859.
