What are OLEDs

  • OLEDs (Organic Light Emitting Diodes) were discovered in 1979. They are solid-state devices composed of thin films of organic molecules (carbon based) that create light with the application of electricity.
  • OLEDs can provide brighter, crisper displays on electronic devices and use less power than light-emitting diodes (LEDs) based liquid crystal displays (LCDs) used today.


OLED Features

OLED technology offers several advantages over conventional lighting. First is its slimness. The thickness of the whole OLED panel for lighting applications will reach just 1mm in the near future. Such a characteristic may allow OLED lighting to be placed directly on ceilings rather than using fixtures that are suspended from them. In addition, OLED’s flexibility may allow lighting fixtures to operate effectively when designed for spaces with limited conditions. The natural transparency of organic materials makes the OLED as sheer as standard glass or plastic when the power is turned off. Imagine a window or wallpaper that lights up during night time. Roll-to-roll sheets of paper-thin flexible, transparent plastic provide an entirely new way to illuminate a home or business.

Other features

  • Exceptionally thin profile: 5 mm thick. This could allow OLED lighting to be placed directly on ceilings rather than using fixtures that are suspended from them.
  • Transparency: The natural transparency of organic materials makes the OLED as sheer as standard glass when it is turned off. Imagine a window or wallpaper that lights up during the nighttime.
  • Efficiency: 54 – 124 lm/W Minimal heat generation (Source: Dresden University and Novaled Corp.)
  • Fully Dimmable: 100% – 1% Dimming
  • Lifetime: 17,000 –25,000 hours to 70% of initial luminance (1000cd/m2)
  • Variety of Colors: Entire visible color spectrum is achievable
  • High Quality of White: CRI: 80–95
  • Color Temperature: 2700K–5500K
  • Low Voltage: 4 –10v, compatible with various renewable energy sources
  • Environmental Friendly: Soluble in regular solvent for further treatment


OLED vs. LED

LED

  • Point light source
  • Has glare eff ects, needs light distribution elements
  • Made of synthetic materials
  • Needs heat sink
  • Regular solvent for further treatment

OLED

  • Flat light source
  • No glare effect
  • Made of organic material, soluble when disposed
  • More efficient heat dissipation, no need for heat sink
  • Able to form transparent flat light panel
  • Able to form on flexible substrate
