Plextronics and Cambrios to co-develop materials for OLED lighting
Nov 10th
Plextronics and Cambrios announced that they will co-develop cost-effective high performance material that could improve OLED lighting’s production process and quality. This is partly funded by the US Department of Energy (DOE). The project has actually started in April 16th, and will last for two years. We reported about the $1.2 DOE grant to Cambrios back in January 2010 . The whole project will cost $1.8 according to the earlier report. The idea is to apply Plextronic’s PlexCore OC hole injection layer (HIL) material on top of Cambrios’ ClearOhm material which creates a transparent electrode to form a transparent conducting hole injection (TCHI) electrode.

LEDON’s sample OLED lighting panels to ship in November, volume delivery in early 2011
Oct 22nd
LEDON OLED Lighting unveiled their first OLED Lighting products back in April 2009 , and now we hear that the Luceos modules (which are based on OSRAM’s ORBEOS panels ) will start shipping next month (as engineering samples). Volume delivery is planned for the beginning of 2011 (LEDON obviously depends on OSRAM’s production capacity ). LEDON says that the Luceos modules now include the driving electronics and the whole package is thinner than 4mm. They offer two dimming options: a pulse-width modulation and a complete DMX512 dimming, which should allow for a large-wall of elements setup that can easily address the brightness of each module. read more
