  • Publication number: 20220310875
    Abstract: The aspects of the disclosed embodiments relates to an optoelectronic device including a substrate layer having a first surface plane and a second surface plane opposite and parallel to the first surface plane. The device also includes a mesa structure arranged on the first surface plane of the substrate layer. The mesa structure includes at least one layer of material; and a first surface arranged at an angle ? with respect to the first surface plane of the substrate layer, wherein the angle ? is different from 0° and 180°. The device still further includes a first terminating oxide layer of a first type arranged on the first surface of the mesa structure and the first surface of the mesa structure has been cleaned by removing at least 75% of native oxides on the first surface of the mesa structure before arranging the first terminating oxide layer of a first type thereon.

  • Patent number: 10146257
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a foldable device having a sensor is described. In an embodiment, the device comprises: A folding area, wherein the folding area is configured to rotate according to an axis of rotation caused by folding the device, causing deformation of the folding area. The folding area comprises: a layer of strain sensitive material having particles, wherein conductivity of the strain sensitive material is configured to change when the layer experiences the deformation. The folding area comprises a layer of conductor lines configured to detect the change of the conductivity of the strain sensitive material, wherein the layer of the conductor lines includes a plurality of contacting points with the strain sensitive material.

  • Publication number: 20180032778
    Abstract: A device, a display and a system are disclosed, all having a display with touch sensing capability. The display senses an object touching the surface of the display and emits light towards the touching object. The light reflects back from the object and travels back through the display to a light detector layer underneath the display stack. The light sensing layer is attached to the display stack with a transparent adhesive that maintains the fingerprint details detectable when the light travels back from the object. The light detector layer may replace the back layer of the display stack. The light detector layer may be applied in various devices having a touch sensing display. The light detector layer may be modular addition to displays in different applications that use identification.
