International giants for LED LCD TV industry output value of up to $6 billion

Recently, Samsung and SONY respectively to show the world the LED backlight LCD TV 70 inches of its own. Domestic Hisense TV also announced that he has made a breakthrough in the LED backlight module project technology. There are indications that LED backlight technology will become the new darling of the next generation of LCD backlight. At present, in this field, a number of international giants such as Samsung, SONY, MITSUBISHI, PHILPS, OMRON, OSRAM, have invested heavily in the intervention, hoping to take the lead.

Output value of up to $6 billion

Reported that Samsung is the world's first one in South Korea and the United States sales 1080P Full HD LED LCD TV manufacturers. Samsung technical staff revealed that LED backlight is the trend of industrial upgrading, with a wide color gamut, pollution-free, high color gamut and other technical advantages make LED the next generation of LCD backlight preferred. Currently, Samsung launched 70 inch LED backlight Full HD LCD TV has been in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and other major cities began selling.

Samsung, SONY, LG-Philips, CMO and other TV machine manufacturers are already developing LED LCD tv. This year, the Display exhibition held in Taipei in, a series of high-definition LCD TV with LED backlight source. Sony Corp also optimistic about the prospects of LED backlight, its Qualia005 LCD TV on the use of Lumileds's Luxeon LED backlight.

Experts have predicted that from now until 2010 will achieve rapid growth of 30%, LCD TV will replace the LED backlight is now the most common cold fluorescent lamp. LED backlight technology can not only be used for LCD TV, but also can be used in liquid crystal displays, notebook computers and a variety of LCD screen. Market research firm estimates that this year the global LED market value of about $6 billion 300 million, to 2010 the market CAGR of about 15%.

Domestic enterprises should jointly attack

Domestic manufacturers although not launched such products, but to see the potential market prospect. Since the beginning of 2005, Hisense, Konka, Xoceco and other mainstream flat-panel TV manufacturers have demonstrated the prototype of LED backlight LCD tv. Some experts believe that in the era of flat-panel TVs, Chinese color TV enterprises as the core technology does not grasp the LCD screen, plasma screen and heteronomy, the current domestic brands of LCD and plasma flat-panel TVs, the 70% technologies rely on imports, the form is not optimistic, so the development of Chinese TV industry must seize the adjustment, otherwise it will lose the chance in the competition.

International research firm Display Search has a conservative estimate, PC and LCD with LED backlight module shipments in 2007 will reach nearly 3 million sets of large size LCD backlight module with LED is regarded as the highlight and promote more LED sales for the next generation of one of the important applications. In addition, LED backlight LCD TV does not contain mercury, better environmental performance. Because the traditional CCFL backlight do not meet environmental requirements, in July 1, 2006 the EU started to implement the RoHS regulations, requirements of waste electronic products to the backlight color TV for $10 to collect fees, which makes many companies to join the LED backlight source of R & D and production.

The experts further pointed out that many domestic companies started in the field of investment research, but these enterprises also somewhat decentralized and independent. The face of strong competition, hope that the domestic industry chain enterprises to powerful alliances, complementary advantages, a joint initiative, only in this way, the domestic brands in order to seize the initiative in the LED market, a share.

LED backlight LCD TV

LCD backlight CCFL compared with the traditional (CCFL) technology, LED backlight LCD TV has higher imaging quality, longer life, higher color saturation and other advantages. LED uses a light-emitting diode as a backlight source, can provide red, green and blue, green, orange, amber, white and other colors, the color gamut is very broad, can achieve 105% NTSC color gamut, which provides a guarantee for the promotion of color LCD tv. In addition, the LED life is very long, the service life of up to 100 thousand hours, if you press a day to start the calculation of 5 hours, a LED backlight LCD TV can be used for nearly 55 years.

EPSON OLED life difficult to overcome

Express News the day before, Seiko Epson Corp released the latest research results - "ultimate black (theultimate black) OLED display system, solves the problem of the service life of OLED, the success of the service life of the product is extended to more than 50 thousand hours, the technical bottleneck breakthrough industry 20 thousand -3 million hours, which greatly expanded the application prospect of OLED display system.

OLED is an advanced display technology of organic electroluminescent materials and organic structure based, with high contrast, wide viewing angle and quick response display characteristics, in addition, because the OLED is self luminous, can use the slim design of hitherto unknown, these make OLED become a highly anticipated next generation tablet a typical display technology. In the past, it was limited by the life of organic materials, so the feasibility of its application in terminal products was greatly hindered. EPSON, by improving the development of light-emitting materials and the development of its own components, to solve the problem has long been plagued by the extension of the early life of the equipment failure. Previously, OLED display system more than 20 thousand hours of service life is only suitable for mobile devices such as mobile phones, EPSON's ultimate black OLED display system breaks through for 50 thousand hours, marking the OLED will be able to mature applications
