July 6, 2010... The University of Strathclyde reports that it has secured a spin-out deal to form a company working in the field of novel next-generation light source technology. The University says that the spin-out could open up a range of opportunities in applications including neuroscience, microscopy and communications. mLED Ltd specialises in micro LEDs, devices made up of thousands of tiny emitters producing light in a compact, integrated package. The new company says that unlike other micro-display technologies, microLEDs are dense arrays of miniature light sources which are pattern programmable and do not require a plethora of external components, such as optics and switching matrices, to modulate the light pattern. They can therefore be more compact and efficient.
