OLCD combines the proven benefits of LCD – high brightness, long lifetime and low manufacturing cost for large-area displays – with our flexible OTFT platform. It delivers glass-like performance, but on flexible plastic substrates, allowing for curved and non rectangular form factors.
OLCD is suited to many applications. The ability to include apertures is ideal for automotive centre consoles and driver information displays, and can enable new form factors for smart devices. For notebooks and tablets, OLCD means thinner, lighter and more rugged displays, while TVs and monitors benefit from ultra-high contrast. OLCD is also naturally scalable for large-area displays such as digital signage for retail or transportation. By reusing existing display fabs and much of the highly cost-optimised materials and components supply chain for glass-based displays, OLCDs cost structure is similar to glass LCDs, making it the lowest cost flexible active-matrix display technology.
