Eastman Kodak says that Fuji Electric Holdings Japan licensed Kodak's OLED technology, and is applying its license toward development of its own color conversion matrix (CCM) full-color OLED display technology with the intention of offering flat PMOLED displays.
Fuji Electric's CCM technology uses a production technique the company calls the "metal mask-less organic film deposition method," for dramatic improvement in manufacturing yield rate, and greater reliability in superior full-color PMOLED.
The royalty-bearing license to Fuji Electric covers use of PMOLED modules in a variety of flat panel display applications and includes a cross-license under Fuji Electric's own considerable patent portfolio in the OLED technology field. The agreement also gives Fuji Electric the opportunity to purchase Kodak's patented OLED materials for use in manufacturing displays.
