AU Optronics Unveils transflective panel with the world’s slimmest border

AU Optronics Corp of Taiwan unveiled two breakthrough technologies for mobile device applications: a 2.2” transflective panel with the world’s slimmest border of 0.9mm and a 2.7” panel with the world’s highest contrast ratio of 2100:1. AUO’s 2.2” mobile device TFT-LCD possesses the world’s slimmest border of 0.9mm on both the right and left sides. This is a half size smaller than current products on the market today. In addition, the upper side border width can be reduced to merely 1.2mm. With this much slimmer border design, AUO’s 2.2” mobile device TFT-LCD can increase the active area and enhance the image sleekness; yet still maintain the same high quality resolution and excellent display quality performance.

By utilizing leading Multi-domain Vertical Alignment design, the AMVA-mobile technology effectively restrains dark state light leakage and increases the aperture ratio, resulting in a higher contrast ratio of up to 2100:1. Also, AUO AMVA-mobile technology has been successfully applied on 2.7” mobile QVGA resolution mobile displays to fulfill the needs of video calls and movie-playing. These latest technologies, along with other small- and medium-sized TFT-LCD technologies, will be showcased at Display Taiwan 2007, from June 13 to June 15, in Taipei.
