Nanoscale Pixels to Advance Compact Augmented Reality Eyewear

Nanoscale Pixels to Advance Compact Augmented Reality Eyewear

The world's smallest OLED pixel, just 300 nm wide, could revolutionize wearable devices with high-resolution displays integrated into glasses and lenses.

A newly developed pixel, only 300 nanometers wide, could soon make it possible to embed vivid, high-resolution displays directly into wearable devices like AR glasses and contact lenses.

Smart glasses that present information directly within the user's line of sight are regarded as a pivotal technology for the future.

Physicists at Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg (JMU) have made a significant advancement in the development of luminous miniature displays using optical antennae, creating the world's smallest pixel to date.

The study, led by Professors Jens Pflaum and Bert Hecht, was published in Science Advances.
