Rigidly planar charge-transfer molecules may unlock long-lasting TADF OLED emission

Researchers from Durham University have used a unique molecule to create TADF emitters with better triplet harvesting, and thus extended lifetime. The fused indolocarbazole-phthalimide molecules offer rigidly planar charge-transfer and can maintain their stability and efficiency over time, even in high-stress conditions.

The researchers say that the new molecules break all our current ideas about excited states in OLED emitters and the researchers developed a new model linking molecular bonding patterns leading to the breaking of molecular pi-conjugation in the excited state.

Applied Materials launches a maskless OLED production technology, to support 8-Gen high efficiency OLED deposition and encapsulation

Applied Materials announced a technology, branded as MAX OLED that enables OLED display production on large glass substrates, aiming to provide a cost-effective solution to produce TV and TV displays. Applied developed and patented a new OLED pixel architecture and a "dramatically different manufacturing approach" that the company says enables brighter, clearer, more energy-efficient and longer-lasting.

Applied's new MAX OLED systems can scale from 6-Gen substrates to 8-Gen substrates, supporting the new wave of IT OLED production lines. Applied says that its new solution has strong customer interest - and already achieved repeat orders from several leading display makers (see below). Specifically, Applied announced that it will supply an R&D system to Samsung Display that will test the new production technology for its AMOLED and QD-OLED production technologies.

DSCC: display equipment spending will increase 47% in 2024, industry to focus more on OLED production

DSCC says that the display industry's spend on production equipment will grow 47% in 2024, to reach $7.3 billion. The next three years (2025-2027) will see pretty much the same levels, and will  not return to the high levels we've seen in 2022 and before. 

2024 will see significant investment in new LC capacity, but going forward there will be very little  investments on LCD production, which is not surprising. DSCC says that the major catalyst for the growth will be production lines for IT AMOLED displays.
