Description We bonded micro-LEDs to CMOS for the first time forming the basis for a number of applications from visible light communications, explosive sensing, cell manipulation, maskless lithography and displays.
Exploitation Route The electronic drive circuits and findings on high power micro-LED drive are of direct relevance to activities of a number of startup companies such as mLED and OSRAM.
Sectors Aerospace, Defence and Marine,Digital/Communication/Information Technologies (including Software),Electronics,Healthcare,Manufacturing, including Industrial Biotechology
 
Description CMOS drive technology for micro-LEDs is giving rise to a new generation of ultra-bright LED displays for near-to-eye or pico-projector applications. It is also being used in the context of LiFi communications which will complement WiFi based internet access. Miniaturised gas or explosive sensors were also developed in the framework of the project.
