Universal Display Corporation have been awarded a $1.65M two-year contract from the US Department of Energy to demonstrate thin, efficient white OLED lighting concept for under-cabinet applications.
UDC will deliver several under-cabinet lighting units to the DOE. each unit will have five 6"x6" white OLED panels, with a system efficiency of over 60 lumens per watt which is comparable to existing under-cabinet systems. The OLED lamps will be much thinner than anything available today, enabling new design concepts, and will make for easier installations.
UDC are also working on ceiling lamps, together with Armstrong, and have recently showed a video with the new 24" OLED lamps.
