MANCHESTER, England, May 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- SmartKem, Inc. (OTCQB: SMTK), a company seeking to reshape the world of electronics with a revolutionary semiconductor platform that enables a new generation of displays, sensors and logic, is a sponsor of this year's SID Display Week taking place in San Jose. SmartKem Chief Executive Officer, Ian Jenks, and Chief Technology Officer, Simon Ogier, will both give presentations on SmartKem's unique TRUFLEX® technology as part of the conference.
On Monday May 9th, SmartKem CEO, Ian Jenks, will be giving a virtual presentation titled 'Moore's Law and The Display Industry' as part of the Business Conference segment of SID Display Week. Moore's Law is the observation that the number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit (IC) doubles about every two years. It is an observation and projection of an historical trend. The presentation will interrogate what this means for the display industry and how SmartKem's revolutionary semiconductor platform has the potential to enable manufacturers to deliver the next generation of displays with its innovative and unique TRUFLEX® technology.
In addition, SmartKem CTO, Simon Ogier, has been invited by the SID Display Week 2022 Technical Program Committee to present an address on 'Opportunities for High Performance Display Manufacturing Enabled by OTFTs Using an 80 Degrees Celsius Maximum Process Temperature' on Friday May 13th. The address will describe the potential advantages in manufacturing available when SmartKem's dual gate organic thin-film transistors are integrated into display backplanes.
SmartKem's TRUFLEX® technology is a full transistor stack design and process platform that produces transistors that are flexible, bendable, wearable and lightweight. Its TRUFLEX® materials are solution deposited on low-cost plastic and glass at a low temperature to make transistor circuits. This technology has the potential to enable miniLEDs, AMOLED displays, fingerprint sensors and integrated logic circuits.
