This approach enabled them to use flow simulations to detect the potential for improvements at an early stage, meaning that the Saloon already
displayed excellent aerodynamic
characteristics when the subsequent «real» wind tunnel tests began.
The performance of these systems is
excellent: (i) the transistors have
characteristics (e.g., on and off currents, etc.) that are comparable to, or better than, those of similar devices fabricated on rigid silicon supports by using conventional photolithographic methods, and (ii) the optical
characteristics (e.g., switching time, contrast ratio, etc.) of the resulting
displays are as good as those of low - resolution signs that use similar electronic inks and direct - drive dressing schemes.
