2. Speaker : Byoung Seong Jeong, Principal Engineer (Samsung Display)
3. Time : 15: :00, Friday, April 07, 2017
4. Place : e+ Lecture Hall(room 83188), 2nd Research Building, Sungkyunkwan University
5. Summary :
As you know, on March 1st, 2016, Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge had successfully unpacked. Furthermore, from the several medias, the Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus will get a release date on April, 2017, with the best innovative technology ever. While new technology and improvement of the Galaxy Edge are showing, the Edge’s curved screen intrigues the world. This is because of newly developed organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays.      Based on Professor Tang’s findings in 1987, OLED displays have been developed and implemented from mobile phones to mid-sized, large-sized displays. For these displays, backplane technology is imperative. The luminance and reliability of OLED displays relies on not only organic materials, but TFT characteristics on backplanes. These challenges of TFT fabrication for better AMOLED displays represent new opportunities for innovation.      This Seminar is intended to be a forum for engineers and scientists interested in exchanging technical information on concepts and innovations in the backplane technology of OLED displays.
