NS Nanotech, based in the US, develops nanowire microLED technologies, branded as nanoLED, using MBE deposition. The company targets the microLED display market, and also the LEDs for pathogen-neutralizing far-UV. NS Nanotech's CEO, Seth Coe-Sullivan, will give a talk at the upcoming MicroLED-Connect startup showcase event on February 2024, and was kind enough to send us a short update on the company's technology and status, and his views on the microLED industry and market:

Seth Coe-Sullivan: NS Nanotech is a spin-off from McGill University and the University of Michigan, with offices in Ann Arbor and Montréal near both campuses. We have exclusive licenses to portfolios of patents for breakthroughs in sub-micron-scale vertical nanowire LEDs, and we have published peer-reviewed results showing world-class efficiency for red and green nano-LEDs. And now we are working to demonstrate how this technology can scale to commercially relevant processes and wafer sizes for both main displays and microdisplays.

Our go-to-market strategy involves partnering with larger companies that have the balance sheet to scale quickly, while we remain a technology provider. As we map a clear path to commercialization of our nanowire technology, we have started to fabricate demonstration wafers to make samples available to potential manufacturing partners.

Rayleigh Vision was established in 2023 in Hong Kong, to developed stacked microLED microdisplay technologies. The company's technology enables the stacking of LEDs on top of each other, to create high-density displays. The company's founder and CEO, Prof. Jr-Hau HE, will give a talk at the upcoming MicroLED-Connect startup showcase event on February 2024, and was kind enough to answer a few questions we had regarding the company's status, technology, and his views on the microLED industry and market.

Hello Prof. Jr-Hau, Can you tell us a bit your company, and technology, and your next steps?

Rayleigh Vision is a company that specializes in disruptive MicroLED technology, with a focus on solutions for full-color microdisplays. Our team includes pioneers in MicroLED technology, who have over a decade of experience in this field.

Although we've seen significant advancements in MicroLED technology, challenges remain. These include developing a full-color solution for microdisplays, improving mass transfer efficiency, and enhancing process yields. From the perspective of microdisplays, achieving a full-color display with a high Field of View (FOV) and Pixels per Degree (PPD) is crucial for an immersive Extended Reality (XR) experience. However, no product currently on the market meets these specifications. 

MicroLED-Connect is a hybrid event series, a year-long program of virtual and onsite events, all focused on the microLED industry. The first online 2-day webinar was hosted successfully last month, with over 25 lectures (all recordings accessible for pass holders). The next event is a startup showcase, that will be hosted on February 22, 2024.

The startup showcase includes lectures from 8 leading microLED startup companies, covering topics such as microdisplays, AR headset development, microLED production, transfer processes and microLED inspection.

Now is a great time to reserve your ticket and make sure you stay updated with the latest innovation from the following startup companies: Rayleigh Vision, Inziv, Comptek Solutions, QustomDot, Terecircuits, iBeam Materials, Kura Vision and NS Nanotech. You can read the complete agenda here.

MicroLED-Connect is a hybrid event series, a year-long program of virtual and onsite events, all focused on the microLED industry. The flagship MicroLED Connect display conference will take place in Europe in 2024 (Eindhoven, September 24-26).

MicroLED Connect posted a call-out to potential speakers for the event. Companies, research institutes, start-ups, analysts, and academics are all welcome to propose a talk. We encourage contributions from round the world. In general, we prefer talks which represent state-of-the-art technologies or real commercial and industrial impact.

MicroLED-Connect is a hybrid event series, a year-long program of virtual and onsite events, all focused on the microLED industry. The first event took place last month, a 2-day virtual event that will be focused on microLED (and also miniLED) technologies. Over 25 speakers, including leading companies, researchers and market analysts, gave excellent talks.

The event offered a single track, so that the 120+ event participants could listen to all the talks, and also participate in online networking sessions. If you missed the event, you'll be happy to know that all the sessions were uploaded online, and can be accessed with a MicroLED-Connect yearly pass. Here in this post we share samples of two of the talks (only the first few minutes).

This is definitely the best on-line event for microLED and on-par with SID Display week for all events. Great program, format and easy to navigate - Eric Virey, Yole Group

"I enjoyed the conference very much and learnt a lot. I look forward to listening to couple of the talks I missed and of course see the pdf presentations" - Homer Antoniadis, independent consultant

"I really enjoyed the talks. The quality was very high and sessions were very informative. Looking forward to future events!" - Hossein Zamani Siboni, PhD, Director of Device Engineering, VueReal Inc."

The MicroLED Industry Association announces a members-only dinner meeting at MicroLED Connect 2024, in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, on September 24, 2024.

This will be a casual dinner that will give members a great opportunity to relax, have fun and network in a friendly and free environment. This dinner will be the 2024's second in-person meeting for the MicroLED Industry Association, with the first one planned for SID Displayweek 2024.

MicroLED-Connect is an upcoming hybrid event series, a year-long program of virtual and onsite events, all focused on the microLED industry. The first MicroLED Connect virtual event is coming up later this month, a 2-day virtual event that will be focused on microLED (and also miniLED) technologies. The event will include over 25 lectures from leading companies, researchers and market analysts. The series is organized by the MicroLED Industry Association together with TechBlick.

In this post we share three online presentations, taken from last year's online microLED event (November 2022). The first video, above, is from the SSLEEC group (led by Prof. Denbaars and Prof. Nakamura) at the University of California, Santa Barbara, that discusses the latest microLED research performed at this world-renowned group.
