Tanaka Kikinzoku Kogyo now offering a printable conductive silver ink
Jan 24th
Tanaka Kikinzoku Kogyo announced that their conductive silver ink is now available commercially, and they say they are the first company to offer such a prOduct. The silver ink is hardened using UV light – there’s no need for thermal hardening, and can be used in a broad range of products – including OLED panels. The ink needs to be exposed to UV light for around 0.3 seconds, and it then hardens instantaneously even at room temperature to form a current-carrying circuit. For a 5 µm film thickness, wiring was formed with an electric resistivity of 10 -3 ?cm. The ink can be used on both a glass base and a flexible base (PVC or PET films). read more

OLED was the most twitted topic on CES
Jan 13th
Mashable posted an interesting article – about CES trends and brands – measured by twitter mentions. They say that on the first three days, more people discussed OLED display technology than any other tech-world trend. It is quite obvious that Samsung ‘s and LG ‘s 55″ OLED TVs are behind this. read more

Toshiba to show an OLED tablet at CES
Jan 7th
CES hasn’t started yet (two more days!) but already news is coming in. This time it is Toshiba, announcing it will show a “high brightness” OLED tablet. We do not have any official information yet, although some sites suggest it will be a 7″ tablet. This actually makes sense as we know that Samsung just added a new 7″ AMOLED product which indeed features high brightness (400 nits). read more

The OLED Handbook – in the top 1,000 Lulu.com best selling list
Jan 4th
I’m happy to announce that The OLED Handbook is the #980 best selling book on Lulu.com . Lulu is one of the most popular print-on-demand book publishers today. The Handbook is selling very well – it’s great to see how many companies from all sorts of industries and from over the world are interested in OLEDs. The Lulu sales rank takes into account the sales revenue and not just the number of books sold (i.e. the price of the book times number of sales). The OLED Handbook costs $149.99 for the printed edition and $97 for the digital (PDF) edition .

DisplaySearch: LG’s OLED TV will cost $8,000, will drop to $4,000 by end of 2013
Jan 3rd
DisplaySearch estimates that LG’s 55″ OLED TV (the 55EM9600 ) will retail for around $8,000 when it launches in 3Q 2012. The price will fall below $4,000 by the end of 2013 as sales volume increase and manufacturing cost will drop. DisplaySearch also says that they expect LG to sell less than 500,000 units annually of these TVs. This is actually a bit optimistic – as LG themselves said that their production line will be able to output 30,000 TVs a month (that’s only 360,000 sets a year). read more

Samsung adds a new 7" AMOLED product
Jan 2nd
Samsung added a new AMOLED product to their web site – a 7″ WSVGA (600×1024) AMOLED display, aimed towards tablets. Interestingly this new panel is quite bright – 400 nits. The 7.7″ AMOLED (used in the upcoming Tab 7.7 ) is only 250 nits bright. We do not know of any product that uses this display yet – the first one will probably be a Samsung made tablet. Or perhaps this will be used in Google’s rumored high-end Tablet ? Hopefully one of these will be revealed in CES 2012 soon… read more
