Karabük University will produce high-resolution domestic and national display technology for military purposes.
According to the statement made by the university, Faculty of Technology Mechatronics Engineering Lecturer Prof. Dr. Mustafa Anutgan and Faculty of Engineering Medical Engineering Lecturer Prof. Dr. Tamila Anutgan is developing the display back panel with the work "Development of Thin Film Transistor Arrays" within the scope of the "Miniature OLED Display Unit Development Project".
The studies carried out at the Iron and Steel Institute Materials Research and Development Center (MARGEM) aim to design and produce screens with military specifications, high resolution and contrast ratio, tailored to the needs and completely independently.
In the project, as a result of the acquisition of OLED technology by ASELSAN, which can create moving images and support colored pixel structures, high-resolution original screens can be specially designed in the desired sizes for military purposes.
"We are moving to high resolution at the current stage"
Prof. Dr. Tamila Anutgan stated that, thanks to the project they carried out with ASELSAN, they will be able to produce domestically produced high-resolution screens.
Stating that they have previously produced thin film transistors for AMOLED screens from glass with their own means, Anutgan said, "As a result of the negotiations with ASELSAN and the support given, it will be possible to implement thin film transistor array production in industry. We can produce various thin films that have semiconductor, insulator and metal properties." ." he said.
Stating that they aim to produce a screen prototype by using thin film transistor array and organic light emitting diode, Anutgan said, "We have a low resolution prototype. At the current stage, we are moving to high resolution. While continuing our research, our aim was only to contribute to the international literature. Thanks to this project we carried out with ASELSAN, nationalization is now in question." "And in our defense industry, index production with thin film transistors will be possible." made his assessment.
"We will be able to produce our product with our own design without having to wait for an order."
Prof. Dr. Mustafa Anutgan stated that they are the first and only group to produce thin film transistors at device quality and that ASELSAN, which was aware of this development, contacted them and started the project because it has a mission to progress in this field.
Stating that they initially produced a low-resolution screen prototype within the scope of the project, Anutgan stated that in the high-resolution stage, they started to take separate measurements and results from each pixel in the screen.
Anutgan pointed out that screen technology is one of the basic parts of today and said:
"It is used in many areas, from mobile phones to televisions, but you can think of the civilian market as being under the monopoly of certain large companies. The screens we produce will be applied mostly to private use and to screens in the military field because we work with ASELSAN. The difference between these screens and civilian screens is that they do not tolerate terrain, temperature, dust and water conditions. It must have certain features to ensure
When screens are needed in military applications, we will be able to produce our product with our own design without having to wait for any orders from outside. We produced the prototype in low resolution, things get more complex and difficult in high resolution. We have come a long way here too, we can take measurements by addressing specific pixels within the matrix. It will take a few years for this to fully translate to the screen. "We hope to see our displays in working order and in prototype form within a few years."
