PixNIL Formulations
PixNIL formulations provide ultra-high refractive indices (1.7-2.0) for nanoimprint lithography applications. These materials enable precise microstructuring in extended reality devices, optical sensors, and waveguides. Compatible with industry-standard NIL tools, they deliver low haze (95% transparency, and robust mechanical properties for advanced optoelectronic devices.
PixJet Formulations
PixJet formulations offer high refractive index (1.65-1.9) materials optimized for inkjet printing processes. Designed for OLED and MicroLED displays, these solvent-free solutions increase light extraction by up to 20% while maintaining >97% transparency. Compatible with commercial printheads, they enable high-frequency printing (12kHz) and precise microlens array fabrication for display applications.
Zirconia Dispersions
PixClear Zirconia dispersions deliver refractive indices up to 1.77 with >99% visible light transparency. These monodispersed nanocrystals (10nm) eliminate aggregation while enabling compatibility with polar/non-polar solvents. Used in XR headsets and OLED lighting, they reduce color distortion (low b*) and improve field-of-view metrics in optical systems.
Titania Dispersions
PixClear Titania dispersions achieve refractive indices up to 2.0 with
Custom Nanomaterials
Our Designer Composites service creates tailored nanomaterials using the PixClearProcess. Capable of developing 23+ metal oxide formulations, we optimize particle size (3-150nm), capping agents, and solvent compatibility. This service supports prototype development for emerging applications in 3D sensing, wafer-level optics, and high-dielectric films.
