| Arrowhead Research announced that its majority owned subsidiary, Unidym, Inc., has entered into a joint development agreement with Samsung Electronics, a leading maker of LCD panels, to extend their successful collaboration into a third year. The companies have been working jointly to integrate carbon nanotube materials as the transparent conductive layer in display devices. In the past 12 months of the collaboration, Samsung Electronics has used Unidym’s film product to demonstrate the world’s first 14.3-inch color EPD. EPDs have inherent advantages over traditional flat panel displays due to their low power consumption and bright light readability. EPDs are currently being used in products such as Amazon’s Kindle, an electronic book device. :theflyonthewall.com |
