ACW will be exhibiting at JPCA 2025. The show will be from June 4 to June 6 at the Tokyo Big Sight Exhibition Halls. Visit us at booth 5H-01 to learn more about our adhesives, nano-imprint lithography (NIL) and working stamp resins, and high refractive index resins.
Protecting High Refractive Index Nano-Imprint Lithography (NIL) Resins from Sunlight Damage by Hermetic Sealing
High refractive index (RI) NIL resins containing titania nano-particles (NPs) can be used for a wide field of view in augmented reality, virtual reality, mixed reality (AR/VR/MR) devices, but their use is limited by their high reactivity in sunlight. ACW now shows that sunlight damage of these NIL resins can be prevented by hermetically sealing Read More…
