Research Triangle Park, NC, Oct. 13 -- MCNC Research & Development Institute (MCNC-RDI), a North Carolina-based nonprofit research organization, and the North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University (N.C. A&T) will partner to conduct research related to technological advancements in flexible displays for U.S. Army mobile electronics applications.
The $1.5 million award, spanning three years, establishes the Center of Excellence for Battlefield Capability Enhancements to develop technologies for environmentally stable flexible displays.
N.C. A&T and MCNC-RDI propose to develop a hybrid light-emitting device (HLED) for mobile electronics and vehicle-based communications and weapons systems required by Future Force Warrior (FFW), the U.S. Army's initiative to develop and demonstrate revolutionary support systems for soldiers.
To develop the HLED technology, MCNC-RDI will combine its OLED experience with N.C. A&T's expertise with narrow bandgap semiconductors composed of inorganic materials. MCNC-RDI and N.C. A&T research facilities will be used throughout the project.
