OVERVIEW

Organic Light Emitting Device (OLED) technology is emerging as a leading technology for displays and lighting. OLEDs possess key performance features including vibrant color, high contrast ratios, full-motion video, and wide viewing angles.

With Universal Display’s proprietary UniversalPHOLED® Phosphorescent OLED technology, OLEDs can also be up to four times more efficient than previously thought possible. This means that OLED displays can consume substantially less power in cell phone and TV applications than current LCDs do. And, white phosphorescent OLED light sources have the potential to be more efficient than incandescent and fluorescent lighting - with significant energy savings to be realized on a global scale. In an increasingly energy-conscious and environmentally-minded world, PHOLED technology and materials are vital for meeting the OLED design requirements of portable electronics, TVs, and lighting.

In commercial use since 2003, PHOLED technology and materials offer key features that translate into performance advantages over conventional fluorescent OLED technology. View a video. These will enable OLEDs to compete with existing LCDs and lighting products. They include:

  • Record-breaking energy efficiencies
  • Vibrant colors
  • Long operating lifetimes
  • Thermal stability for manufacturing use
  • Manufacturing versatility
  • Environmentally-friendly

With this rich set of features, PHOLED technology can enhance the performance of your displays and lighting products - providing real power savings advantages - for longer battery operation in portable electronics and less energy consumption in larger display and lighting products.
