With Samsung SDI launched the world's first active organic light emitting diode (AMOLED) panels, and Sony launched 11 inch AMOLED TV, manufacturers of Taiwan, Japan and South Korea in the AMOLED market competition is more and more strong, including LG, Display, TMD and Samsung Qijing (Samsung ELectronics), have accelerated AMOLED the pace of technological development, in the foreseeable future, AMOLED will form a competitive market, also occupy a certain share in the display industry.
Passive organic light emitting diode (PMOLED) the largest manufacturer of Samsung SDI continued development of AMOLED, Samsung SDI is the OLED cause of the focus shifted to AMOLED in 2008, Samsung SDI will invest additional AMOLED, also plans to launch in 2008 more than 3 inches of products. In addition, Samsung SDI also plans to produce a small amount of 14 inches of products in 2009, while in the production of more than 30 inches AMOLED TV in 2010.
CMO's odd crystal photoelectric also put into production at the same time as the AMOLED panel, the purchase of machinery and equipment, the CMO intends to cash capital increase Qijing photoelectrical NT $1 billion, used to set the second AMOLED panel production line, expected in 2008, odd crystal will have AMOLED panel application on digital photo frame.
In addition to the introduction of Sony 11 inch AMOLED TV, has developed a diverse AMOLED TV, is currently using low molecular material and low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS) for AMOLED TV development, in addition to the 27 inch products is expected to come out, Sony for 30~40 OLED TV inch utility is not lax, in LCD TV is widely used in amorphous silicon the substrate (a-Si) as the basis, to develop a new substrate for OLED, is expected in 2009 for production.
Samsung, the world's largest published in addition to the 40 inch AMOLED TV, in 2008 6~8 months, trying to produce white AMOLED in the L1, formally sent into the signal to cause AMOLED in addition, Samsung has also plans to carry out large-scale development and utilization of OLED TV fifth generation production line.
LG Display has been LG electronic PMOLED production line, into AMOLED production, the current production of AMOLED is 2 inches QVGA (320 x 240) products, mainly for the use of internal mobile phones. LG Display is quite focused on the development of small AMOLED panels, but also for the large scale AMOLED research.
As for TMD, EID, Mitsubishi, Sumitomo and Kyocera and other companies, are also engaged in AMOLED related research and development, which, TMD has developed in 2007 using polymer materials for production of 20.8 inches OLED TV.
In Taiwan, Japan and South Korea and other manufacturers AMOLED panel technology R & D investment new layout and market development, AMOLED market will gradually formed, and is expected to occupy a space for one person.
