Japan-based Fujitsu will work with a Taiwan-based company to set up a plant in Taiwan to produce cholesteric liquid crystal color e-book readers, according to Liao Chi-Chang, manager of FLEXLCD, an organization dedicated to promoting flexible LCD display.

Fujitsu will help the Taiwan company transform its STN and roll-to-roll equipment for cholesteric liquid crystal display production, and will set up an R&D center in Taiwan, Liao noted.

Fujitsu will first set up back-end e-book reader module production lines in 3-4 month, and then a complete line incorporating front- to back-end production in one year for an annual output of 10,000 color e-book readers, Liao said.

FLEXLCD, established in 2007, is managed by Liao from the Electronics and Optoelectronics Research Laboratories (EOL) of the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI). FLEXLCD members include LCD panel maker Chi Mei Optoelectronics (CMO), equipment maker Contrel Technology and Kuo Sen Enterprise, and flexible copper clad laminate (FCCL) maker Taiflex Scientific.
