"We have developed an entirely new way of creating a color display," said John Hong, a researcher at Qualcomm MEMS Technologies Inc. "The incredibly efficient display is able to create a rich palette of colors using only ambient light for viewing, much like the way we would read and view printed material."

Laser Annealing Creates Nanoscale Lattices
The technique involves sweeping a laser across a polymer sample to produce the extremely localized thermal spikes needed to drive ultrafast self-assembly of nanoscale cylinders. A heat-sensitive elastic coating on top of the unassembled polymer film expands when it is swept by the laser, which pulls and aligns the nanocylinders.

Complex biological systems like the brain present a challenge: their molecular building blocks are organized with nanoscale precision, but support physiological processes and computations that occur over macroscopic length scales. Presenter Ed Boyden and the Synthetic Neurobiology Group are creating tools to enable the mapping and repair of such complex systems.
