Displays

Solution processed light emitting organic materials were demonstrated in 1989 with a tiny 0.1 EQE (external quantum efficiency). Since then there has been tremendous progress on material synthesis/production as well as on display processing. However, thus far, commercialization has remained elusive. In this article we will argue that the page may be about to turn.

In this slide presentation (see below) we describe the different existing and emerging OLED material classes. In particular, we explain and analyse fluorescent (FL), phosphorescent (PH), thermally-activated delayed fluorescent (TADF) and hybrid TADF and fluorescent materials.

Glass is the ultimate barrier substrate material.

In this slide presentation, we will first give a brief introduction to the basic operation of thin film transistors, also distinguishing them from wafer-based transistor technologies.

This premium article from IDTechEx Research looks at opportunities for printed and flexible electronics in the smart card industry.

Many consider quantum dots as the ultimate and ideal phosphor material. This is because quantum dots and phosphors both act as downconverters and therefore share many applications in lighting and displays.

IDTechEx will be hosting a free webinar on Wednesday 26 September titled Progress to the Foldable OLED Display.

The new IDTechEx Research report "Global OLED Display Forecasts and Technologies 2019-2029" provides a comprehensive assessment of OLED display technologies and markets based on primary research conducted globally by IDTechEx analysts.

In this article, IDTechEx Research will focus on some of the key frontiers of short-, medium-, and long-term change in quantum dot films. In particular, we will argue that the transition away from Cd based QDs will soon be complete; we will show how QD material improvements are translating into total cost reductions and how that is reshaping the market's pricing strategies; and finally we will consider whether film type QDs can continue their supreme reign, or whether relentless innovation soon render them obsolete.

In the past five years or so, perovskite quantum dots have emerged as interesting emissive (PL or EL) nanocrystal materials that could one day rival existing cadmium- or indium-based quantum dots (QDs).
