OSRAM to explore low-cost production of OLED lighting method

OSRAM Semiconductors (OSRAM Opto GmbH) will be funded by the EU research and development project "CombOLED" organizers, will promote the development of low-cost production of OLED lighting technology. The company will be responsible for the construction of new components, production methods and the realization of simple structure of the material, etc..

OLED lighting products with more than 10 thousand hours of life, brightness up to about 1000cd/m2, luminous efficiency of 40 ~ 60lm/W, energy saving performance. In addition, you can also do very thin. OSRAM Opto Semiconductors forecast, OLED lighting market size will reach billions of euros in 2015. However, in order to achieve the application of OLED in the field of general lighting, it is necessary to develop low-cost mass production technology.

The project also includes a method for printing a new type of component that is required to achieve a large transparent light source.
