OLED-Info: the OLED experts

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.

This will be the world's first mass production and stable supply system for TADF materials. Kyulux aims to achieve full-scale mass production of its Hyperfluoresence emitter system by 2025, and this will be an important step forward as it will require a stable supply of TADF materials. 

Samsung Display and BOE are fighting a legal battle in the US, as Samsung wishes to halt the import of BOE OLED displays (such as the ones used by Apple in the upcoming iPhone 4 SE smartphone, according to reports) saying that BOE infringes upon Samsung's patents. BOE, meanwhile, together with other OLED makers in China, answered with a motion of their own, to dismiss an SDC AMOLED patent. 

The US International Trade Commission (ITC) has now ruled that BOE indeed infringed upon Samsung's OLED patents. However the ITC rejected Samsung's request to ban the import of BOE's displays into the US. Samsung asked to re-examine the decision and the final verdict on issue will be given on March 2025.
