New low-cost OLED lighting project gets funding from the UK
Aug 8th
A new project called TOPDRAWER (Thin organic prototypes, design, research, applications with end-user recognition) has secured funding from the UK government, and will start in early November and will run for 2.5 years. This is actually a followup project to TOPLESS , and is also lead by Thorn lighting. TOPLESS project OLED lamp prototype The consortium will develop and demonstrate a printed manufacturing process that will be integrated into attractive designs that have been created through consultation with potential end-users. The manufacturing process will be proved and tested within PETEC, that will acquire and install a large-area coating line. In June 2008 we interviewed Dr. Geoff Williams, TOPLESS’ manager (and we also assume he will manage the new project). In December 2008, TOPLESS showed a prototype lamp. The efficiency is about 17Lm/W (as there is no out-coupling. With out-coupling the efficiency is over 30Lm/W), each panel operating at 3W. The panels are just 0.7mm thick, made by Sumation with TOPLESS materials read more

Carclo unit and CDT demonstrate ITO-free lighting panel
Apr 8th
Cambridge Display Technology has produced an innovative OLED lighting product using technology by Carclo’s Conductive Inkjet Technology subsidiary. CDT has produced an ITO-free P-OLED lighting device using a fine copper mesh. The work was enabled by its work with Conductive Inkjet Technology and their joint ‘NOMAD’ project funded by the government-backed Technology Strategy Board. The demonstration has shown the potential for patterned metal tracking using electroless metal deposition as a replacement for both Indium Tin Oxide and traditional sputtered tracking. read more

EU patent office rejected CDT’s challenge of a core UDC flexible OLED patent
Nov 9th
UDC says that the European Patent Office has rejected an opposition to one of their core flexible OLED patents in Europe. The opposition was filed by Cambridge Display Technology (CDT) back in 2006
