The combination of ZrO2 nanocrystals and photosensitive technologies led to new photosensitive materials and inks with high refractive index and inkjet properties superior to conventional materials. Moreover, high resolution and high transparency was achieved even with thick films. This material is useful for next generation applications such as flexible displays.
