文摘Super-fine electrohydrodynamic inkjet(SIJ)printing of perovskite nanocrystal(PNC)colloid ink exhibits significant potential in the fabrication of high-resolution color conversion microstructures arrays for fullcolor micro-LED displays.However,the impact of solvent on both the printing process and the morphology of SIJ-printed PNC color conversion microstructures remains underexplored.In this study,we prepared samples of CsPbBr3PNC colloid inks in various solvents and investigated the solvent's impact on SIJ printed PNC microstructures.Our findings reveal that the boiling point of the solvent is crucial to the SIJ printing process of PNC colloid inks.Only does the boiling point of the solvent fall in the optimal range,the regular positioned,micron-scaled,conical PNC microstructures can be successfully printed.Below this optimal range,the ink is unable to be ejected from the nozzle;while above this range,irregular positioned microstructures with nanoscale height and coffee-ring-like morphology are produced.Based on these observations,high-resolution color conversion PNC microstructures were effectively prepared using SIJ printing of PNC colloid ink dispersed in dimethylbenzene solvent.

文摘Flexible electrochromic devices(FECDs)demonstrate significant potential for applications in wearable elec-tronics,military camouflage,and flexible smart displays.As a crucial electrochromic material,poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):polystyrene sulfonate(PEDOT:PSS)is widely used in FECDs due to its excellent mechanical flexibility,tunable conductivity,and non-toxicity.However,the manufacturing process for patterned PEDOT:PSS electrochromic devices remains intricate,costly,and challenging to personalize.To address this challenge,we have developed a 3D-printable ink with controllable rheological properties through a concentration-tuning strategy,enabling programmable,patterned printing of PEDOT-based conductive polymer electrochromic layers.The 3D-printed FECDs exhibit outstanding electrochromic performance,including a high optical contrast(up to 47.9%at 635 nm),fast response times(t_(c)=1.6 s;t_(b)=0.6 s),high coloration efficiency(352 cm^(2) C^(-1)),and good cycling stability(with only a 9.3%decrease in optical contrast after 100 electrochemical cycles).Finally,we utilize 3D printing technology to construct flexible,patterned PEDOT:PSS electrochromic devices with bespoke butterfly designs.This work establishes the theoretical foundation for the application of 3D printing technology in PEDOT:PSS flexible electrochromic devices.

文摘Based on the helix rotating screen and the digital micro-mirror device （DMD）, the former proto of volumetric-swept display system is improved. The 3-D display system adopting a helix rotating screen to construct an imaging space meliorate the defects, such as the smaller image space, the fewer voxels and the severer voxel overlap dead zone caused by planar rotating screen. DMD with spatial light modular （SLM） technology increases the transmission bandwidth of 3-D data in the voxel activation subsystem and activate multi-voxel once time. The volumetric-swept system based on helix rotating screen and DMD is developed. The experimental results show that the image space, the vision dead zone, the voxels on slice, and the voxel activation capacity of the designed proto are superior to the plane rotating screen system.

文摘Quantum technologies rely on creating and manipulating entangled sources,which are essential for quantum information,communication,and imaging.By integrating quantum technologies and all-dielectric metasurfaces,the performance of miniature display devices can be enhanced to a higher level.Miniature display technology,such as virtual reality display,has achieved original commercial success,and was initially applied to immersive games and interactive scenes.While the consumer market has quickly adopted this technology,several areas remain for improvement,including concerns around bulkiness,dual-channel display,and noise reduction.Here,we experimentally realize a quantum meta-hologram concept demonstration of a miniature display.We fabricate an ultracompact meta-hologram based on 1μm thick titanium dioxide(TiO_(2)).The meta-hologram can be remotely switched with heralding technique and is robust against noise with the quantum entangled source.The platform can alter the miniature display channel by manipulating heralding photons’polarization,removing speckles and multiple reflective light noise,improving imaging contrast,and potentially decreasing device weight.Imaging contrast increases from 0.36 dB under speckle noise influences to 6.8 dB in quantum correlation imaging.This approach has the potential to miniaturize quantum displays and quantum communication devices.

文摘Driven by the growing demand for next-generation displays,the development of advanced luminescent materials with exceptional photoelectric properties is rapidly accelerating,with such materials including quantum dots and phosphors,etc.Nevertheless,the primary challenge preventing the practical application of these luminescent materials lies in meeting the required durability standards.Atomic layer deposition(ALD)has,therefore,been employed to stabilize luminescent materials,and as a result,flexible display devices have been fabricated through material modification,surface and interface engineering,encapsulation,cross-scale manufacturing,and simulations.In addition,the appropriate equipment has been developed for both spatial ALD and fluidized ALD to satisfy the low-cost,high-efficiency,and high-reliability manufacturing requirements.This strategic approach establishes the groundwork for the development of ultra-stable luminescent materials,highly efficient light-emitting diodes(LEDs),and thin-film packaging.Ultimately,this significantly enhances their potential applicability in LED illumination and backlighted displays,marking a notable advancement in the display industry.

文摘High-performance carbon dots(CDs)allowing the application in high-end display devices are highly desirable and usually limited by the absence of simple and easy synthesis methods.In this work,we exploited an easy-to-implement strategy for the one-step synthesis of green-emitting CDs(G-CDs)with superb optical properties.The G-CDs were synthesized using m-phenylenediamine(m-PD)as a single precursor,and the reaction reacted at 180℃for 12 h The resultant G-CDs exhibit high-purity and excitationindependent green fluorescence with the photoluminescence(PL)peak located at 516 nm,full width at half maximum(FWHM)of 46 nm,and PL quantum yield(QY)of∼80%under the 470nm excitation light.The G-CDs and corresponding composite film prepared with polyvinyl butyral(G-CDs@PVB)exhibit good PL stability after undergoing long-time storage for one year and 360 h exposure under 460nm blue light.The G-CDs@PVB film was used as color-conversion materials in green-emitting light-emitting diode(LED)application,exhibiting a Commission internationale de l’Eclairage(CIE)chromaticity coordinate of(0.21,0.44).The film was also used in CD-based liquid crystal display(CD-LCD)application,achieving a color gamut value of 85%.This work will offer a working basis for the synthesis of high-performance CDs as well as their application in displays.

文摘Water covers most of the Earth’s surface and is nowhere near a good ecological or recreational state in many areas of the world.Moreover,only a small fraction of the water is potable.As climate change-induced extreme weather events become ever more prevalent,more and more issues arise,such as worsening water quality problems.Therefore,protecting invaluable and useable drinking water is critical.Environmental agencies must continuously check water sources to determine whether they are in a good or healthy state regarding pollutant levels and ecological status.The currently available tools are better suited for stationary laboratory use,and domain specialists lack suitable tools for onsite visualisation and interactive exploration of environmental data.Meanwhile,data collection for laboratory analysis requires substantial time and significant effort.We,therefore,developed an augmented reality system with a Microsoft HoloLens 2 device to explore the visualisation of water quality and status in situ.The developed prototype visualises geo-referenced sensor measurements incorporated into the perspective of the surroundings.Any users interested in water bodies’conditions can quickly examine and retrieve an overview of water body status using augmented reality and then take necessary steps to address the current situation.

文摘Laser display technology is the most promising display technology in the market and is widely used in many fields. However, laser speckle has been troubling the application and expansion of this technology in some fields. In order to better evaluate the speckle, speckle measurement methods must be studied. In this study, a dynamic measurement method for laser speckles is proposed according to the optical superposition characteristics of speckle, which can reduce the influence of non-coherent factors on the speckle measurement results. The feasibility of the dynamic speckle measurement method is verified by designing an experimental scheme.

文摘Trehalose production via a one-step enzymatic route using trehalose synthase(TreS)holds significant promise for industrial-scale applications due to its simplicity and utilization of low-cost substrates.However,the development of a robust whole-cell biocatalyst expressing TreS remains crucial for enabling practical and economically viable production.In this study,a high-sugar tolerant strain of S.cerevisiae was screened and employed as a host cell for the cell surface display of TreS from Acidiplasma aeolicum.The resultant strain,S.cerevisiae I3A,exhibited remarkable surface displayed TreS activity of 3358 U/g CDW and achieved approximately 64%trehalose yield(10.8 g/L/h productivity)from maltose.Interestingly,no glucose by-product was observed during trehalose production.The S.cerevisiae I3A cells exhibited reusability for up to 12 cycles leading to potential cost reduction of trehalose products.Therefore,our study demonstrated the development of a high-sugar tolerant S.cerevisiae strain expressing TreS on its surface as a whole-cell biocatalyst for efficient and economical trehalose production with potential applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

文摘SimWall is a user-friendly, stereo tiled display wall system composed of 18 commodity projectors operated by a Linux graphics cluster. Collaborating together, these projectors work as a single logical display capable of giving a high-resolution show, large-scale, and passive stereo scene. In order to avoid tedious system setup and maintenance, software-based automatic geometry and photometric calibration are used. The software calibration is integrated to the system seamlessly by an on-card transform method and is transparent to users. To end-users, SimWall works just as a common PC, but provides super computing, rendering and displaying ability. In addition, SimWall has stereoscopic function that gives users a semi-immersive experience in polarized passive way. This paper presents system architecture, implementation, and other technical issues such as hardware constraints, projectors alignment, geometry and photometric calibration, implementation of passive stereo, and development of overall soft- ware environment.
