LG.Philips LCD's use of metal foil and plastic substrates, rather than glass substrate makes the flexible color E-paper display bendable and durable, while maintaining superior display qualities. The 14.3-inch display uses a substrate that arranges thin-film transistors (TFT) on metal foil rather than glass, allowing it to recover its original shape after being bent. The 14.3-inch flexible color E-paper display can also be viewed from a full 180 degrees, so that images always appear crisp, even when the display is bent.
LG.Philips LCD will also unveil what it claims is the highest resolution mono flexible E-paper, similar in size to a B5 size paper, which it plans to launch in 2008.
