Let's Talk About Metalenses
Wed, May 29, 2024 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM EDT
From the moment of their initial introduction, metalenses have ignited the creative minds of engineers working in the realms of optics and photonics. LightTrans International’s team, the creators of the optics software VirtualLab Fusion, are dedicated to offering modeling and design tools that assist their clients in exploring the capabilities of metalenses in their respective applications. During this webinar, Frank Wyrowski shares strategies for the design and simulation of metalenses in common application contexts. He is eager to showcase cutting-edge advancements and discuss future plans for expanding these concepts in 2024. He aims to motivate the optics community to share their anticipations regarding the functionalities that an optics software should encompass for the utilization of metalenses. Presented by LightTrans International.

OLED-on-Silicon for Microdisplays in AR/VR/MR and Embedded Sensing
Thu, May 30, 2024 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM EDT
Microdisplays are essential for wearable AR/VR/MR devices, such as smart glasses. Emissive microdisplays, such as OLEDs or micro-LEDs, provide significant advantages in terms of form factor and power consumption versus their non-emissive counterparts, such as liquid crystal on silicon and digital light processing technology. Uwe Vogel of Fraunhofer IPMS discusses achievements in high-resolution and ultralow power OLED microdisplay and sensing devices, their backplane integrated circuit (IC) design architectures, as well as OLED-on-silicon frontplane process technology. He considers micro-LEDs as upcoming options for very high-brightness applications and compares them to OLEDs in terms of application requirements and performance features.
