Featherweight Displays (FWDs):Ultra-bright VCSEL-based, Full-color Microdisplays using Solderless Nanoscale Interconnects

The Feather Weight Display is a novel design and integration of industrially mature technologies including ultra-density silicon circuits with ultra-dense chip-to-chip interconnections, ultra-density VCSEL arrays, nonlinear photonic upconverting color materials, and nonlinear optical elements. To demonstrate its potential is primarily a design process. Design of emissive and virtual retinal devices and the identification of industry processes will be accomplished quickly. In Phase-I we not only demonstrated that an instrument is feasable but constructed several test samples to illistrate many of the required processes necessary to fabricate the a fully functing prototype. In Phase-2 we will deliver the prototype and establish the road for commercialization & production.
