O RGANIC L IGHT E MITTING D IODES (OLED) By Paul Naud EE230 Fall 2011 Instructor: Claire Gu
2
W HAT IS AN OLED? An OLED is a LED that uses the electroluminescence of organic material to emit light instead of physical characteristics of compounds like GaAs. This allows for flexibility and high resolutions

T YPES OF OLED
7
P ASSIVE M ATRIX OLED (PMOLED) Controls each individual row of a display sequentially Pixels remain off for most of the time Higher voltage required for operation
8
A CTIVE M ATRIX OLED (AMOLED) Controls each individual row of a display sequentially Uses a Thin-Film Transistors (TFT) array for pre-charging and constant voltage.
