OLED TV

An OLED TV screen uses a new display technology called OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diodes). OLED televisions are brighter, more efficient, thinner and feature better refresh rates and contrast than either LCD or Plasma.


A little bit about the technology

OLEDs are made by placing thin films of organic (carbon based) materials between two conductors. When electrical current is applied, a bright light is emitted. The OLED materials emit light and do not require a backlight (unlike LCDs). Each pixel is a small light-emitting diode, in fact. OLED TV panels offers several advantages over LCDs:







Faster refresh rate, better contrast and better color reproduction
Thickness: the LG's EL9500 for example is just 1.7mm thick. We've seen prototypes of OLED televisions that are merely 0.3mm thick!
Better viewing angle - almost 180 degrees
Greener: OLEDs draw less power, and contain no bad metals
OLED panels can potentially be made flexible and/or transparent...


“Printing OLEDs significantly lowers the cost to manufacture displays, and with Gen 3 materials technology, display manufacturers can see the material lifetimes and performance required for commercialization,” said William Feehery, global business director -- DuPont OLED Displays. “With lifetime five times better than just two years ago, these new materials will allow solution OLEDs to be used in mobile displays, and also to begin to penetrate the television and general lighting markets at a lower cost than today's evaporated OLED technology.”
