Business Korea says Google aims to invest in LGD to secure VR OLED display capacity
about 11 months ago - No comments
Business Korea reports that LG Display is in talks with Google regarding a large investment in LGD’s OLED facilities towards the development and production of VR displays. BK says the investment will amount of hundreds of billions of Won (equivalent to hundreds of millions USD). LGD VR prototype, March 2017 The report is somewhat confusing, though. On the one had it says that Google is interested in OLED microdisplays, and on the other it says that LG will produce the displays in its existing flexible AMOLED lines, which use a different technology than microdisplays (which are produced on Silicon).

Fluxim releases a new version of its large-area OLED simulation software, OLED-Info readers get a 20% discount
about 11 months ago - No comments
Leading simulation and measurement tool provider Fluxim recently released a new version of its large-area OLED simulation software LAOSS. The new version adds a simulation capability for temperature estimation and cross-coupling the temperature generated by the device operation itself (in the organic stack and the electrodes) and the changes in device operation due to this increased temperature (leading again to different heat generation and so on). LAOSS is a software tool that simulates large area semiconductor devices (OLED and PV), taking into account the voltage drop in the electrodes due to important resistive effects when the size of the device increases. LAOSS facilitates electrode layout optimization and material choice, which can save substantial time and resources. Both OLED lighting panel design and study of AMOLED pixel cross-talk is just a click away.

UBI Research sees PECVD as the in-organic TFE equipment of choice for flexible OLED production
about 11 months ago - No comments
UBI Research says that as OLED makers are diverting all efforts into flexible OLED production, thin film encapsulation (TFE) is gaining in popularity. Between 2017 and 2021, TFE will be applied to about 70% of all OLED panels in production. The OLED encapsulation equipment market will generate $11 billion in sales. TFE encapsulation started out as a complex technology that required 11 layers and was slow and expensive. Recent advances allowed OLED makers to reduce the number of layers to just 3 and increase productivity and yields and so lower the production costs. Some film OLED makers opted for hybrid encapsulation (which uses a barrier film) but TFE seems to have become the technology of choice.

about 11 months ago - No comments
Meizu Pro 7 and Pro 7 Plus are high end Android smartphones that sport a small (2-inch) AMOLED display on the back, useful for notifications and selfie images. Both phones also use AMOLED displays on the front – a 5.2″ FHD Super AMOLED for the Pro 7 and a 5.7″ QHD Super AMOLED for the Pro 7 Plus. Other features of the Pro 7 include a dual 12MP sensor camera, a 16Mp selfie camera, Helio X25 chipset (X30 10nm 10-core on the Pro 7 Plus), 4GB of RAM (6GB of the Plus) and 64 GB of storage (128GB on the Plus). Both phones will start shipping in early August 2017. The Pro 7 will cost $430 while the Pro 7 Plus will cost $530.
Samsung reports a record-breaking quarter, sees lower OLED revenue ahead
about 11 months ago - No comments
Samsung Electronics reported a record-breaking quarter, with revenues reaching 61 trillion Won ($54 billion USD) and an operating profit of 14 trillion Won (about $12.6 billion USD). The company’s enjoyed a very strong chip and component business, which offset a slight decline in mobile devices revenues. Samsung Display posted an operating profit of 1.7 trillion Won ($1.5 billion) from revenues of 7.7 trillion Won ($6.8 billion). SDC’s OLED business is strong and the company forecasts increased sales of flexible AMOLED displays as more smartphone makers are adopting flexible OLEDs.

LGD confirms it is in talks with strategic partners to fund its aggressive OLED expansion plans
about 11 months ago - No comments
A few days ago LG Display disclosed its financial results for Q2 2017 and announced a large OLED investment plan to increase capacity for both OLED TVs and small-sized flexible OLEDs . During its investor conference call, LG Display disclosed that it plans to finance some of the capacity increase through strategic partnerships such as customer commitments. In the past months we heard reports that both Apple and Google are in talks with LGD regarding an investment to secure OLED capacity. It seems likely that LGD now verified these reports – but the investments are probably not finalized yet.

DSCC: OLED revenues to reach $21 billion in 2017, will rise to $46 billion in 2021
about 11 months ago - No comments
DSCC expects the OLED market to rapidly grow in the near future, as AMOLED production capacity will increase at a CAGR of 41% from 2016 (5.3 million square meters) to 2021 (29.4 million square meters). OLED revenues will reach $21 billion in 2017 (a rise of 46% compared to 2016) and will reach $46 billion in 2021. Smartphones are still the largest OLED application by far – with a 86% market share (revenues) in 2017 and 81% in 2021. The second largest application by revenues are OLED TVs, and other applications follow with a small market share – but one that will increase as supply looses in the future. If we look at shipments, then smartphones acount for 94% of OLED shipments, and the 2nd and 3rd applications are VR headsets and smart watches. OLED TV shipments will reach 6.5 million in 2021 (rising at a CAGR of 49% from 2016 to 2021). Read more about DSCC: OLED revenues to reach $21 billion in 2017, will rise to $46 billion in 2021
