ADDING MULTIMEDIA Corning to Unveil Next-Generation G-2000 Green Laser Technology at SID Display Week 2010
24 Maio 2010 - 2:57PM
Business Wire
Corning Incorporated (NYSE: GLW) will introduce its new Corning®
G-2000 green laser at the Display Week 2010 conference, held by the
Society for Information Display (SID), in Seattle, Wash., May
23-28. The G-2000 green laser demonstrates the industry’s highest
commercially available performance in optical power, efficiency,
and bandwidth. As a result, it is well suited to meet the demands
of the growing market for portable microprojection devices.
Corning has led the industry with the development of the first
synthetic green laser technology, the first commercially deployed
synthetic green laser for microprojection (Corning® G-1000) and
now, the next-generation commercial product, the G-2000. Advancing
from the G-1000 technology, the G-2000 green laser is 30% brighter,
60% more efficient, and offers 20% better bandwidth than its
predecessor.
“The microprojection market presents a very large opportunity
for our customers. That’s why the development of a winning
light-source solution — one that is bright, small, and easy on a
battery – is so important,” said Thomas Mills, general manager,
Green Lasers, Corning New Business Development. “The G-2000 is
brighter, faster, and more efficient than any other green laser
commercially available today. With these benefits, it can provide
our customers a much needed competitive edge over alternative
solutions, like LED-based projectors.”
As microprojection moves toward mass adoption in the consumer
electronics industry, performance requirements are becoming
increasingly demanding. Device makers want projectors with
brightness of greater than 10 lumens, wide-video graphics array
(WVGA) resolution or better, and at least two hours of battery
life.
Providing outstanding solutions for these tough requirements,
the Corning G-2000 green laser:
- generates 80mW of optical power,
enabling up to twenty lumens projection;
- provides a power-efficient
solution with 8% wall-plug efficiency (WPE), and longer battery
life;
- delivers excellent bandwidth
capability with modulation speeds up to 150 MHz, enabling wide
extended graphics array (WXGA) resolution;
- ensures consistent green power
across a 10-60ºC temperature range, providing thermal stability
over wide temperature ranges and extended use periods; and
- is designed with a 4 mm height
and slim footprint that enables embedded microprojection in today’s
ultra-slim mobile devices.
“With the market shifting to greater than 10 lumens brightness
and resolution of WXGA, we need to develop solutions that place us
ahead of the competition,” said Andrew Hung, president, Opus
Microsystems, a leading provider of MEMS-based picoprojector
solutions to enable new-generation mobile projection applications
that is currently evaluating the G-2000 in multiple picoprojector
designs. “The optical power, efficiency, and modulation frequency
demonstrated by Corning’s G-2000 green laser make it possible for
us to deliver on these demanding requirements.”
The Corning G-2000 green laser is currently being sampled by
customers. Commercial production is estimated to begin later in
2010.
In addition to introducing its G-2000 green laser technology,
Corning will present its newest display technologies and outlook on
future trends in advanced display in booth #641 at the SID
conference. To learn more about Corning green laser technology,
