50 cd/m000 OLED panel

21.02.2015

Ason Technology introduced its first OLED lighting panel back in 2013, but in a short time, the Japanese manufacturer has made significant progress in the development of this technology. Ason's multi-layer panel structure has resulted in an OLED panel with a maximum brightness of 50 cd/m000. The white glow panel consists of 2 layers.

At a brightness of 5 cd/m000, the life span is 2 hours (the life of an OLED panel is typically the continuous glow time, after which the brightness is reduced to 50% of the original).

The panel uses the principle of fluorescence. To improve durability and efficiency, Ason is considering switching to phosphorescent materials.

Ason has a small pilot plant that can produce several thousand 72x72mm panels a year. Although initially the company planned to engage only in development, apparently, a decision was made to master mass production. Ason is now raising a $6,7 million investment to build a factory in Japan capable of producing 350 000 x 200mm panels per year. If all goes according to plan, production of panels will begin next spring. Ason is also considering building a factory in China, Taiwan or Korea.

In terms of price, a 150 x 150mm panel costs around $340. The company expects that over time the price will be able to reduce. Potential consumers of lighting panels are hospitals, museums and other institutions. In addition, negotiations are underway with car manufacturers.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Microrobots for the repair of underground utilities 08.01.2019

The UK has invested almost $9 million to develop microscopic robots that will repair and maintain various underground utilities. Leading US universities will take up the development, and if a good result is achieved, perhaps this will become a new word in the repair of urban communications.

Autonomous pipe inspection machines are no longer a novelty, but new versions of these machines differ in their purpose. With their help, it will be possible to solve the problems associated with the repair of pipes, such as: excavation of pits in the middle of the streets and dismantling of asphalt.

It is planned to teach robots to independently repair various damage to pipes, which will first need to be found. For this, special robots have been created that will diagnose pipes. They outwardly resemble beetles and are no more than 1 cm in size and are able to move on any surface, including water. Repair robots are larger, equipment for repairing various pipe damages is attached to them. They are controlled directly through the cable through which they are charged and receive materials for repairs.

It is planned to complete the development of repair robots in 5 years. If the result is positive, the UK will buy them in millions of batches and begin mass repairs of underground utilities.
