OLED-Info - Page 4

World-Class Conference | 10 & 11 April 2024 | Online Event

This event focuses on innovations in materials, manufacturing, applications, and markets for OLEDs. OLEDs are already a commercial success for years and yet the the pace of incremental and radical technological innovations and breakthroughs is incredible, furthering device properties [color, stability, resolution, color gamut, brightness, etc], expanding applications, and opening new manufacturing and patterning techniques from photolithography to inkjet printing and beyond.

These innovations could not only entrench the success of OLEDs further, addressing their weak spots, but also perhaps take away the selling points of challengers or alternatives like MicroLEDS, QD-LCDs, etc. Understanding the OLED market and industry dynamics is a must for microLED professionals.

This event is curated by TechBlick and OLED-Info.com. It is part of the MicroLED Connect series - accessible with a Virtual or Hybrid Annual Pass.

Perovskite-Info is happy to announce the 2024 edition of The Perovskite Handbook. This book is a comprehensive guide to perovskite materials, applications and industry. Perovskites are an exciting class of materials that feature a myriad of exciting properties and are considered the future of solar cells - but are also used to enhance displays, LEDs and more. Perovskite materials could prove pivotal to the future of the display industry. The handbook is now updated to January 2024 and lists recent developments and new companies, initiatives and research activities.

Reading this book, you'll learn all about:

• Different perovskite materials, their properties and structure
• How perovskites can be made, tuned and used
• What kinds of applications perovskites may be suitable for
• Perovskite QDs, LEDs, and other applications in the display industry
• What the obstacles on the way to a perovskite revolution are
• Perovskite solar cells, their merits and challenges
• The state of the perovskite market, potential and future

The book also provides: a history of perovskite research, a guide to perovskite companies and developers, information on leading collaboration and development projects, a comprehensive list of perovskite companies, market updates and much more!

US-based Pixelligent is an advanced materials company that delivers next generation optical materials applications in lighting and displays. For the OLED industry, Pixelligent offers materials that significantly increase light output by increasing the refractive index of materials in the device.

Pixelligent's President and CEO, Craig Bandes, was kind enough to answe a few questions we had, to learn more about Pixelligent and its solutions for the OLED industry.

Hello Craig! Can you explain your technology and materials and how they enhance the efficiency of OLED display?

We are best known for our high refractive index (HRI) nanocrystal formulations and dispersions that deliver breakthrough performance in next-generation electronics, like extended reality, displays, optics, and sensors. We designed our PixJet®, PixNIL®, and PixClear® products to offer the best combination of brightness, clarity, operating efficiencies, and device-lifetime. 

We are happy to report that the OLED Toolbox is progressing nicely, and we are on track to release by the end of the month.  We are also still accepting marketing materials - so if you want to share your brochures, presentations, catalogs, roadmaps, white papers or anything else, contact us now. We believe this will be a good opportunity to expose your technology to the OLED industry at large and to help us educate and inform OLED and display professionals.
