Discover Oxford Instruments' cutting-edge processing solutions for display devices

Oxford Instruments will be exhibiting at the International Display Workshops 2025, a three-day conference, which will focus on the development of display device technologies, including academic insights and corporate visions for future applications.

Oxford Instruments, with its own cutting-edge solutions in advanced plasma etch and deposition technologies, enables the development of key components such as microLEDs, waveguides, and advanced semiconductor devices that power these next-generation systems. 

Achieve precise and consistent plasma etch, deposition and interface optimisation for features used in datacom, augmented reality and quantum devices, using atomic layer etch, atomic layer deposition, ICP (etch & dep) and PECVD.

The Oxford Instruments team are looking forward to welcoming you to Hiroshima, Japan. If you would like to book a meeting with us during the event to discuss your current projects and workflows, please complete the form below.

Title:
 Advanced Processing for Display Devices – Towards Making AI/AR a Reality

Time: Wednesday, December 3, 2025, 5:30 PM JST (MEET 3), Phoenix Hall

Our experts at Oxford Instruments dive into the exciting advancements helping to revolutionise AI and AR applications. Join Dr Andrew Newton's talk where he will present Oxford Instruments’ work on microLEDs and diffractive waveguides.

Key highlights include:

  • Breakthroughs in microLED technology: Optimised etching processes to minimise sidewall damage in microLEDs, significantly improving luminous efficiency even at micron and sub-micron scales.
  • Innovative damage-repair treatments: Restoring up to 60% of performance post-etching, paving the way for cost-effective industrial production of microLEDs.
  • Precision-engineered gratings for waveguides: Using ion beam etching, gratings with nm level smoothness, ensuring optimal light coupling for AR displays.

AR and AI applications demand bright, high-resolution displays capable of overcoming challenges like daylight visibility and privacy concerns. Oxford Instruments’ work on microLEDs and waveguide gratings is addressing these challenges head-on, making AR glasses and similar technologies a practical reality.
