What They Say
OLED Info, quoting “Chinese sources” reported that BOE is investing $155 million to build a microdisplay fab that will use 12″ silicon wafers. The blog said that it believed that
“Seeya Information Technology is the only company that is currently producing OLED microdisplays on 12-inch silicon wafers. Seeya’s fab, now in operation, has a yearly capacity of around 20 million displays (monthly capacity of 9,000 12″ wafers).
Seeya produces several OLED microdisplays, including a 0.49″ FHD, 1.03″ 2560×2560 and a large 1.4″ 2560×2560 display”
What We Think
Moving up to 300mm (12″) wafers will help to get costs down for microdisplays. BOE, of course, has a J/V with Olightek that makes OLED microdisplays with Kopin. (BR)
