OLED stands for Organic Light-Emitting Diodes It’s a solid-state semiconductor device that is 100 to 500 nanometers thick. Consists of 5 Layers Will make LCD and Plasma Screens Obsolete
OLED’s operate on the attraction between positively and negatively charged particles Energy passing through Cathode and Anode layer stimulates organic material cause it to emit light 1.Cathode (−); 2.Emissive Layer; 3.Emission of radiation; 4.Conductive Layer; 5.Anode (+)
What can OLED’s do for us? Transparent OLED’s for Cars, Windows, Laptops
More energy efficient screens Double Sided Screen for uses in flip phones Requires less power then other display technology to run
OLEDs do not require backlighting like LCDs Are brighter than LEDs and LCD’s Are easier to produce and can be made to larger sizes. Have large fields of view Can be flexible instead of rigid
Lifetime (OLED films) Red & Green have up to 230,000 hours Blue has only 14,000 hours Manufacturing processes are expensive at the moment Water can easily damage OLEDs
Current OLEDs are to expensive Real world Applications such as a Heads Up Display for cars Large amount of real world applications
