1. Kyushu University (Japan), 2. Kyushu Institute of Technology (Japan)
The temperature dependence of the cross-plane thermal conductivity of Indium-Gallium-Zinc-Oxide (IGZO) thin film was measured using a differential three-omega method. The IGZO thin films were deposited on Al2O3 substrate by DC sputtering at room temperature. The thermal conductivities were observed to be 1.6, 1.8, and 2.6 W/(m·K) at some different oxygen partial pressures, 0%, 10%, and 65%, respectively. Furthermore, the thermal conductivity of IGZO thin film is decreasing with increasing the measurement ambient temperature according to the crystalline material typical characteristics. These results notify that a crystallinity exists inside the IGZO films and this crystalline phase governs the heat conduction into IGZO films.

Invited Design of phosphors and color converters for laser-driven solid state lighting
*Rong-Jun Xie1
1. Xiamen Univ. (China)
Laser-driven solid state lighting, using laser diodes instead of light-emitting diodes as a primary source, are attracting attentions for super-brightness, compact and directional lighting. Under high power density excitation, phosphors are usually experienced luminance saturation, which making them hard to produce lighting devices with high lumen and luminous efficiency. To search for laser-driven phosphors is then a tough mission for this emerging lighting technology. In this report, we will present interesting nitride phosphors for laser-driven solid state lighting, and discuss their optical properties under blue laser irradiation.

Fabricating CsPbBr3@poly(methyl methacrylate) composite microspheres by direct thermal initiated polymerization

In this manuscript, we report a facile synthesis of water-resistant CsPbBr3 perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) loaded poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) composite microspheres (CsPbBr3@PMMA). The method is based on the precipitation polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) in the presence of CsPbBr3 PQDs. The CsPbBr3@PMMA microspheres show a tunable size and a narrow size distribution, with the CsPbBr3 PQDs being uniformly dispersed in the PMMA microspheres. The effective incorporation of PQDs is attributed to the strong coordination interactions between Pb ions on the surface of PQDs and carbonyl groups (C=O) from PMMA. Protected by the PMMA microspheres, the imbedded CsPbBr3 PQDs show improved water resistance and storage stability. Further, a wide-color-gamut (129%) white light-emitting diode (LED) was demonstrated by combining the green-emitting CsPbBr3@PMMA composite microspheres and red-emitting K2SiF6: Mn4+ with a blue LED, which enables to be used as backlights for liquid crystal displays.

PHp1-2 Highly Stable Quantum Rod White LED with Optimal Luminous Efficacy and Color Performance
*Chengbin Kang1, Maksym F. Prodanov1, Swadesh K. Gupta1, Valerii V. Vashchenko1, Abhishek K. Srivastava1
1. HKUST (Hong Kong)
Quantum rods (QRs) have shown great potential for modern displays owing to their polarized emission and high light coupling coefficients. Here we have synthesized quantum rods of configuration CdSe/ZnxCd1-xS, which show significantly better temperature stability in comparison to the conventional Cd based QRs. Additionally, the Cd concentration was reduced, which make it more environment-friendly QRs. Unlike general lighting applications, LCD uses the RGB color filter to reproduce color images, which requires QRs with a narrow full width at half maximum (FWHM) for better color saturation. The proposed approach offers an ability to precisely tune the emission wavelength and maintain the narrow FWHM for the QRs. The fabricated QRs LED backlight shows the color triangle 118% NTSC color standards. The efficacy of designed QRLED is 90lm/W@(10mA). This work opens up the new avenues of the high-efficiency high color performance for next-generation LED backlight.

Time-resolved electroluminescence (EL) of Alq3-based OLEDs revealed that delayed EL emission via triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA). We found that the initial luminescence loss of the OLED is caused by quenching of not only singlet but also triplet excitons. Triplet quenching by trapped positive charges decreases in singlet excitons created via TTA.

Improvement of Performance and Color Stability of Solution-Processed OLED by Controlling Recombination Zone
*Thi Na Le1, Min Chul Suh1
1. Kyunghee University (Korea)
The recombination region is found on the hole transport layer/emitting layer side when using a relatively high electron mobility host material. By the way, in this case, the electroluminescence spectrum becomes broader as the driving voltage increases. High field-dependence for electron mobility of host material and electric field-induced quenching of excited state would be responsible for a color instability. On the contrary, the well-designed device utilizing host material with high hole mobility resulted in well-controlled recombination zone which is far away from the critical interface mixing zone. With this device, we obtain improved performance as well as much improved color stability.

*Sei Ikeda1
1. Osaka University (Japan)
This paper presents several display systems for augmented reality (AR) developed by the author’s group. All of them are based on sensing the three-dimensional position of user’s gaze (3D gaze), and they are AR user interfaces that provide some benefit to the user without the user's intention to operate the systems. In particular, we focused on the depth of a user's gaze for (1) presenting a more realistic representation of depth of focus, and (2) gaze-driven AR x-ray vision to make real objects semi-transparent and show the hidden parts. Additionally, an application example for an in-vehicle AR display is shown as a situation where such technology will be necessary or important in the near future.

We have achieved linear blending of adjacent view-image luminances and appropriate monocular perceived depth by smooth motion parallax in a Visually Equivalent Light Field 3D display. Multi-view images at several positions are confirmed to have almost linear luminance change by horizontal position change. Smooth motion parallax with a single eye provides almost the same monocular perceived depths as designed depths.

*Yusuke Fukuta1, Shiro Suyama1, Haruki Mizushina1
1. Tokushima University (Japan)
Instability of perceived depth by binocular disparity due to different stereoscopic-image sizes can be improved by motion parallax. Perceived depth by binocular disparity without motion parallax is degraded as image size difference increased. When motion parallax is contradictory with binocular disparity, perceived depths are widely degraded regardless of image size difference.

1. Nagoya University (Japan), 2. Kyushu Institute of Technology (Japan), 3. Industrial Research Institute of shizuoka Prefecture (Japan)
The kinesthetic illusion (KI) is an illusion that when a suitable vibration stimulus is applied to tendons or muscles. In KI, the participants feel as if their stimulated tendons or muscles were stretched and their related limbs moves in the exteded direction. In the previous study, we investigated the effect of strengthening the moving image in the process of repeating experiments performed by naïve persons who have not experienced the KI so far. An experiment in which a vibration stimulus was applied to the Flexor Carpal Radius (FCR) muscle tendon of the right hand was repeated 5 times to confirm the training effect on KI, which was evaluated by the magnitude estimation method. In this study, we investigated the effect of the rubber hand illusion (RHI) on the KI with displaying a movie of the wrist extension movement on a display placed in front of the arm.

There is a growing consensus that microLED will become the next major flat panel display type. At present, leading companies are demonstrating steady progress against the technological challenges that historically impeded the commercialization of microLED displays, such as mass transfer in manufacturing and fabrication of efficient micron-scale optoelectronic devices. Equally important is the pixel drive circuitry needed to control the microLEDs efficiently and reliably in these displays. Mass transfer for microLED displays most frequently refers to the process used to distribute microLEDs across a panel substrate, but it can also open entirely new advantageous possibilities in backplane design. Mass transfer of microIC drivers as pixel engines for microLED displays is gradually receiving increased attention as a path toward unmatched efficiency, dynamic range, and brightness.
