TAIPEI -- Display maker AUO is preparing to scale back production at its facility in Singapore and possibly move some of the plant's equipment back to Taiwan as the company steps up its bet on advanced micro-LED screens, a technology Apple is also aggressively pursuing, Nikkei Asia has learned.
Micro-LED screens are less power-hungry and can be made thinner than organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays, the most advanced display technology currently available on the market. Companies like AUO and Apple see them as a way to counter the South Korean and Chinese companies that dominate the OLED segment.
