The technology giant, Foxconn, that assembles iPhones for Apple, is reportedly developing its investment in microLED technology in hopes of securing orders from Apple for the company’s upcoming smartphones. Three of the company’s subsidiaries, Epileds Technologies, Marketech International, and Advanced Optoelectronic Technology are already believed to be working on microLED technology, according to a report from Economic Daily News.

The recent iPhone and Apple Watch Series lineup comes with OLED displays and in comparison, microLED provides largely the same advantage, while also taking care of some inherent problems that are associated with OLED like OLED, microLED displays also do not require backlight since pixels are self-lit. This gives the display various advantages such as improved color accuracy, more stability, true blacks, and faster response times.

AOT is also developing micro LED devices for applications involving monitors, notebooks, automotive and digital gaming devices, as per the report.

Epileds, which produces LED epitaxial wafers and LED chips, is one of a few Taiwan-based LED companies that are proficient in the production of RGB mini LED chips, and the RGB technology is also essential for the development of micro LED products.

Marketech, LCD equipment supplier has declared it has completed a collaborative effort with Belgium based nano-electronic center, Imec, for developing testing chip implantation equipment for micro LED manufacturing.

Imec has delivered the testing chip implantation equipment to clients, and the Imec-Marketech team has also received orders for mass transfers of LED chips, according to the report.
