Flexible displays have been technically challenging to develop due to requirements for durability, flexibility, low power consumption, and high contrast ratio. Earlier flexible displays relied on plastic or metal foil substrates instead of glass, which posed issues to resolve regarding properties like clarity, stability, and smooth surfaces. Recent integration of flexible display technologies with traditional web processing and inkjet technologies has enabled low-cost, high-throughput manufacturing using roll-to-roll processes and has the potential to replace paper.
