Effects of the material properties and thickness on the minimum formable radius in the subtle feature forming process.

The subtle feature geometry also called a feature line, is considered an important geometric characteristic of automotive outer panels. The influences of material properties and thickness on the radius of curvature of subtle features were investigated in this study. First, the stamping process was simplified to a combined forming process between tensile and bending deformation.

Electrically Driven Sub-Micrometer Light-Emitting Diode Arrays Using Maskless and Etching-Free Pixelation.

For decades, group-III-nitride-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have been regarded as a light emitting source for future displays by virtue of their novel properties such as high efficiency, brightness, and stability. Nevertheless, realization of high pixel density displays is still challenging due to limitations of pixelation methods. Here, a maskless and etching-free micro-LED (µLED) pixelation method is developed via tailored He focused ion beam (FIB) irradiation technique, and electrically driven sub-micrometer-scale µLED pixel arrays are demonstrated.
