A new generation flat screen: metasurface displays

该项目旨在通过用比液晶薄100倍的准表面取代传统的液晶(LCS)来开发更轻、更高效、更高分辨率的新一代平板屏幕。亚表面是由经过工程处理的介电和半导体纳米颗粒组成的阵列，具有非凡的特性。与目前基于液晶的显示器(如LCD和LED)相比，预期的结果将导致分辨率提高100倍、能耗降低一半的平板显示器。这项新技术将彻底改变显示器的尺寸和性能，并确保澳大利亚在价值数十亿美元的平板显示器市场上的地位。

This project aims to develop a new generation flat screen that is lighter, more efficient and with higher resolution by replacing the traditional liquid crystals (LCs) with metasurfaces that are 100-times thinner than LCs. Metasurfaces are arrays of engineered dielectric and semiconductor nanoparticles, with extraordinary characteristics. The expected outcomes will lead to flat screens with resolution enhanced by 100 times and energy consumption reduced by half, as compared to current LC-based displays (e.g. LCD and LED). This novel technology will revolutionise the dimension and performance of displays and secure Australia's position in the billion dollar market of flat displays.
