LG is at the forefront of display technology yet again, with news that they have come up with a 19″ wide flexible e-paper which is roughly the size of an A3-sized newspaper. This is around 8 times larger than 6″ e-book readers, where this flexible display was developed specially for an e-newspaper while giving the reader an experience of actually reading a real newspaper. Measuring a mere 0.3mm thin, it tips the scales at 130 grams. Since TFT has been arranged on metal foil instead of glass substrate, this makes it possible for it to recover its original shape after being bent. Don’t expect it to hit the market anytime soon in other forms of devices since there is no word of it entering production anytime soon.
