What is Solid State Display (SSD)?

Westaim SSD

• The solid state construction resists vibration, mechanical shock and electrical breakdown.
• Because thick-film dielectric is less sensitive to contamination from airborne particles, SSD displays can be manufactured in a lower level clean room environment.
• The thick-film process also reduces capital costs by replacing expensive thin-film deposition equipment with less complex screen printing equipment.
• The SSD fabrication process results in higher yields and significantly lower manufacturing costs compared with other flat panel technologies.

Why Is Solid State Display The Technology of The Future?

• Exceptional brightness with a wide range of pixel sizes
• Crisp, clear image with unrestricted viewing angle
• Fast response in a wide operating temperature range
• Reliability and long life through rugged solid state construction on a ceramic substrate
• Low cost, high yield fabrication

The Technology

• The SSD technology developed by Westaim combines conventional thin-film phosphor with reliable thick-film screen printing.
• The result is high brightness graphic and character displays with exceptional appearance, performance and value.
• The clear, crisp images are viewable at almost any angle under virtually all ambient light conditions, without polarizing filters or backlights.
