Novaled optimistic about OLED technology, hoping to significantly improve the luminous efficiency of OLED within 2 years

Recently, the development of OLED technology in Germany NovaLED AG published an optimistic estimate of the future development of OLED: lighting with OLED luminous efficiency is currently 50lm/W, reaching 2 times more than incandescent 20lm/W. Our goal is to use two years to achieve 100lm/W".

Novaled development of OLED technology and the application of organic electronic technology in 4 areas: display, lighting, solar cells, TFT. Among them, the company located on the display is: "although it has just begun to enter the application, but now the LCD panel manufacturing process, not on the LCD panel of the revolution, but the evolution of liquid crystal on the extension line". Because of the low cost characteristics of OLED thin and small number of components, the development of the LCD panel manufacturers have turned to OLED".

In the company's most anticipated lighting field, Novaled believes that this is a revolution in lighting, is moving forward step by step". At the same time, he also pointed out that the world famous lighting manufacturers are in general lighting as the target of development, however, the company believes that "characteristics should first use OLED surface emitting, launched lighting products with novel design, and then spread to the general lighting purposes". In particular, the window of the "OLED", the wall and the ceiling of the paste around 10cm square tile like lighting is full of expectations. "OLED lighting focuses on the energy efficiency of high luminous efficiency".

In addition, Japan, the United States and the European car manufacturers have also strengthened the concern about the use of OLED lighting, is being studied from the inside, the dashboard to a variety of lighting applications. On the use of OLED materials to achieve the layer structure of solar cells, Novaled said that the current conversion efficiency is still relatively low, but the efficiency will steadily increase in the future. So far, the company has cooperated with a company. Moreover, due to the low cost of organic TFT manufacturing, the future will also be used as a driving element of the OLED panel.

It is understood that the company set up a company in Japan at the end of March 2008. Its purpose is to support Japan's OLED display, especially OLED tv. Novaled said, in addition to Sony, will support other companies". In addition, the company in order to achieve OLED lighting, will also strengthen exchanges with the Japanese bulb manufacturers.
