Researchers from ETH Zürich and the Huazhong University of Science and Technology developed a new scalable fabrication technology that enables the deposition of extremely small OLED pixels. The so-called nano-OLEDs achieve a pixel density of 84,000 PPI, or even higher. The pixel size is around 100 nm, the smallest pixels ever reported.

The method is based on direct nanomolecular patterning of the OLED materials, realized by self-aligned evaporation through nanoapertures fabricated on a free-standing silicon nitride film adhering to the substrate. The researchers report that the average nano-OLED EQEs is up to 10%. 

Marketing in the OLED industry can be challenging task, as it is highly centric on one hand, but there is a need to reach the entire industry value chain, from engineers to managers. Finding effective ways to reach your target audience is crucial for driving sales and growth. OLED-Info, the leading online resource for the OLED industry for over 20 years, offers a unique opportunity to connect with a highly engaged and relevant audience, be part of the OLED community, and enjoy a connection with a trusted brand.

Targeted Audience

OLED-Info attracts a highly targeted audience of individuals and organizations interested in display technologies, and specifically OLEDs, with a readership that covers the entire display supplier chain, including engineers, scientists, researchers, product developers, project managers and decision-makers. By advertising on OLED-Info, you can ensure that your message reaches the right people who are actively interested in your products or services.

Huawei officially announces the world's first tri-folding OLED smartphone, the Mate XT. The phone and its specifications will be unveiled on September 10, and will ship on September 20.

Huawei allows people to reserve their Mate XT phone, and already over 1.25 million people reserved it. 

Towards the end of 2023, BOE officially announced its plans for a 8.6-Gen flexible LTPO AMOLED line in Chengdu. The agreement with Chengdu's local government was signed in early 2024, and in April BOE announced it is starting to construct the new fab.

Earlier this year LG Display started producing its 30-inch 1366*768 transparent OLED panels. China-based CEOLED are now offering a monitor based on this panel.

The monitor offers a brightness of 600 nits (peak), a 0.1 ms response time, and HDMI, DP, Dc and USB interfaces. The lifetime of LG's 30-inch transparent WOLED is quoted at 30,000 hours. Contact us if you're interested in this monitor, or in other solutions based on LG's range of transparent OLED displays (30-inch, 55-inch and soon 77-inch) or BOE's transparent OLEDs.

During the company's Innovation Partner Conference, BOE demonstrated a new 6.55" OLED panel prototype that utilizes TADF-sensitized materials and a tandem stack architecture. The company says that the TADF materials offer significantly improved color gamut, and it achieve 95% BT.2020 coverage, this in addition to the high power efficiency and long lifetime. 

It is our understanding that BOE's TADF-Sensitized material platform combines a deep green Hyperfluorescence emitter and a standard deep-red phosphorescence material. The blue emitter is likely a standard fluorescence bluet emitter.

Cambridge Isotope Laboratories, Inc. (CIL) has acquired an additional 14.8 acres of land at its Cambridge Isotope Separations (CIS) Xenia, Ohio location. Mike Steiger, Vice President of Engineering and Project Execution for CIL, stated that the new land purchase will ensure easier access to utilities for future expansion.

This newly acquired land is situated to the west of the 20 acres purchased in 2017, which is currently the site of the North Star expansion project. This recently completed project will greatly increase 13C production and is in the startup phase. North Star is the largest 13C separation facility ever built in the world and will significantly increase CIL’s capacity ensuring customer reliability for this stable isotope.

According to reports from Japan, Apple decided to adopt a 6.1" AMOLED display for its upcoming iPhone SE 4 smartphone, which will mean that all of the company's smartphone products will be based on OLED displays.

We actually reported this in March 2024, and back then it was suggested that Apple's target price was $25 for the OLED display - which was too low for Samsung Display that decided not to continue with its discussions with Apple. Back then it was estimate that BOE will supply the majority of the displays, and some orders will go to Tianma. According to the new report, the second supplier is actually LG Display.

Omdia says that Color-Filter on Encapsulation (COE) will grow to be the dominant technology in foldable OLED smartphone panels, and will replace the currently-used circular polarizers. COE adoption will grow at a 33% CAGR between 2024-2030, and by 2030 almost 90% of foldable smartphones will use COE technology, and almost 20% of all smartphone OLED panels.

The adoption of COE in OLEDs increases the panel effective brightness, which means that the display consumes less power compared to a polarizer OLED (same brightness) and also lasts longer. The color gamut is also improved. On the other hand, COE OLEDs suffer from higher reflectivity compared to polarizer OLEDs. 

Last month China-based Voyah announced a new international all-electric SUV called the Zhiyin, that includes several innovative technologies. The taillights of the car are OLED lighting based, with 33 individually controlled OLED units on both the upper and lower sections, creating unique light patterns. We assumed that Yeolight is the OLED panel supplier, and indeed now the company confirmed that.

In addition to the OLED taillights, the Zhiyin will also an AMOLED display - a "curved sliding screen" that can "slide to accommodate different user needs". While this is not confirmed, we assume that this is a similar display to the one Hongqi just revealed yesterday - a sliding rollable 14.2" AMOLED panel produced by Visionox.
