OLED
Summary
OLEDs are self-luminous displays that use organic compounds to emit light through a process called electrophosphorescence. OLED displays are ultra thin, less complicated and much cheaper when compared to conventional LCD or Plasma displays. They also provide much brighter and crisper images while consuming far less power than LCDs. OLED displays don’t need a backlight and so can be see-through, mirrors or even flexible. But major problem with OLEDs is that they have short lives and scientists are working to increase their life span. Another problem is OLED materials are sensitive to moisture and oxygen, and a scalable sealing technology that does not degrade the optical performance is required.
