Flat Screen DisplaysDriving Worldwide Demand
- Higher Definition/More pixels
- Lower power requirements
- Flat Panels
- Hang on the wall HDTV
- Portability and compactness/flexibility
- Lower Cost
- AstroViews patented technology holds the promise
for the future
4
Flat Panel DisplaysThe Future Market
- FPD market expected to grow at 21.5
- - to 63.5 Billion
- Desktop monitor market will become the single
largest display market segment - The non-PC share of the FPD market will rise from
42 in 2000 to 51 in 2001 - Source DisplaySearch, 2001

The Monitor Display Market
Flat Screens Evolution to the Future
- Flat Panels encroach on the long-held position of
CRT-based monitors - Worldwide monitor revenues expected to reach 58.1
Billion in 2004

Today's Display Market
- Dominant Technologies in Flat Screen Format
- CRTs still suffer from size and weight and
power consumption restraints of traditional CRTs - Plasma relatively high power consumption, high
operating voltage and low color brightness
compared to LCD. Expensive - LCD hampered by complexity and characteristics
that appear to be barriers to substantial cost
reduction and to efficient application to certain
product areas, such as very large displays
7
The Next Generation OLED Technology
- The display industry is investing in OLED
technology to meet future business goals - Kodak/Sanyo recently signed a 400 million
agreement to produce screens using OLED
technology - IBM is developing OLED for virtual imaging
applications - TDK plans to invest 284 Million on facilities
and equipment in the next 4 years to mass-produce
EL displays - Samsung, Dupont and Pioneer are stepping up
manufacturing facilities for future mass
production of OLED - Toshiba, Seiko Epson Corp., pursuing OLEDs using
polymer materials

Display Market

- Current technologies are hampered by the
complexity and characteristics that appear to be
barriers to substantial cost reduction and to the
technologies efficient application to certain
product areas, such as very large displays
9
AstroViews Strong Patent Position
- AstroView holds a unique and powerful position in
the area of OLED technology with its patented
contact structure. - AstroViews technology is essential in the
industry to meet the price points that ensure
mass markets. - We believe the developing OLED technologies will
benefit from AstroViews technology and present
licensing opportunities

- A New Paradigm in Digital Display
11
A S T R O V I E W s Technology
- AstroView brings new improvements and
efficiencies to OLED technology in both Woven and
Ink-jet printed display with the following
patented technologies - No Barrier True Ohmic Contact
- Triode Configurations
- Gated Pixel Elements
- Woven Display
- Ink-jet Printed Display
- Improved Field Emission Surfaces
12
No Barrier True Ohmic ContactThe Common Thread
ofAstroViews Technology
- AstroView has the only patented technology to
accomplish for the first time between solids - No Barrier True Ohmic Contact between specified
metals and inorganic, metal-organic and polymer
n-type semiconductors. - That unique contact has been demonstrated in
three different independent facilities. Results
have been published in Proceedings of the
Eleventh International Vacuum Microelectronics
Conference
13
No Barrier True Ohmic ContactEvolution to Triode
Technology
- Once true ohmic, no barrier contacts are
introduced, new means must be used to initiate
and control Electroluminescence (EL). - AstroViews patents introduce that means, a third
element, to initiate and control EL. The Triode
is a natural progression from diodes, which
occurred in vacuum tubes and in semiconductors,
with all the intrinsic improvements and
advantages.
14
AstroViews Patented Gated Pixel Elements
- No Barrier True Ohmic Contact permits and
requires a third, gate terminal to control
conduction, avalanche in semiconductors,
including polymer semiconductors. - The woven Gated Electroluminescent Display (GELD)
rely on the ohmic contact both for
electroluminescent pixel devices and the address
and control devices.
15
A S T R O V I E W s Triode TechnologyDiode vs.
Triode
- Diode
- Has barrier contact at injector and collector
terminals - Address and intensity modulation must be
separately manufactured increasing cost - A significant percentage of light emission is not
utilized increasing power required to obtain a
desired level of illumination
- Triode
- Integrally fabricated gated triode pixel elements
and complementary triode logic devices - Eliminates troublesome ITO contact
- Improves carrier balance and luminous output
- Address/control is easier
16
Triode not Diode Devices
- The gated, triode EL devices are either of two
well known and characterized types MESFETS
(Metal Schottky-gate Field Effect Transistors,
and JFETS (Junction Field Effect Transistors).
The EL controlling gate may be either a Schottky
barrier or a Junction barrier to the EL material.
The gate is an individual control element,
independent of the diode contacts.
17
Weaving or Printing Pixels?
- AstroViews patents bring new interface and
device technology to both woven and ink-jet
printed electroluminescent displays. Both fiber
and printed EL materials begin in the same
semi-liquid solution, then drawn into fibers, or
ink jet printed, in the dimension and thickness
desired. Printed displays are presently limited
by ink-jet technology to small, cell phone size
displays. - Weaving Displays is the next generation beyond
ink-jet printed displays Enabling large screen
size in OLED technology
18
A S T R O V I E W s Woven Display Screen The
Next Generation
- Low cost method of manufacture of polymer gated
pixel and control/address devices are woven
together on a loom like fabric - Display area is limited only by loom
- Full color flat panel display can be as thin,
front to back including encapsulation, of less
than one-half inch - The display retains operational performance with
mechanical flexing
19
