Meet Prof. Adachi, the initiator of ‘Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence’

We visited Adachi’s laboratory at Kyushu university that published the TADF (abbr., Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence) thesis firstly to ‘Nature’ in 2010. He looked like a naive graduate student rather than a professor.

International TADF Workshop Opening

The International Workshop on the third generation of light emitting material technology, TADF (Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence) technology, which links first-generation fluorescent material technology and second-generation phosphorescent material technology, will be held at Kyushu University from July 19 to 21, 2017

Merck, introducing future-oriented material for the display in SID 2017

Merck said new display technologies and upcoming projects will be presented at SID Display Week 2017 In addition, Merck will exhibit a broad portfolio of products and services under the theme of 'The Perfect Pixel - Advanced materials for display and beyond'.

Fraunhofer FEP develops OLED microdisplays as high-precision optical fingerprint sensors

Fraunhofer FEP has been developing various application-specific OLED microdisplays based on OLED-on-silicon technology successfully for many years. This unique technology enables the high-precision integration of an OLED as light source on a microchip. Moreover this microchip can be designed with further sensor elements, e.g. photodiodes. By this, objects can be illuminated and at the same time the reflected light detected and analyzed. Such microdisplays can be integrated into interactive data eyeglasses as a “bi-directional microdisplay”: the tiny display projects the information for augmented-reality applications whereas the camera function detects the viewing direction – thus the content can be controlled by eye-movements.

Merck, EU Horizon 2020 project ‘HyperOLED’ launched

Merck, a leading science and technology company, announced the successful launch of the HyperOLED project in April 12, a € 4million project funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program.

[Finetech Japan 2017] SEL, 81inch 8K OLED Multi display unveiled

SEL unveiled the 81inch 8K OLED multidisplay at Finetech JAPAN 2017 held in Tokyo, Japan from April 5th to 7th. The SEL 81inch 8K OLED multidisplay is implemented with 36 (6x6) panels of 13.5 inch wide display.

ETRI’s Development of OLED Display With A Graphene Transparent Electrode

Researchers from Korea’s ETRI Institute developed a graphene transparent electrode for OLED display. Especially, they developed the process of patterning a graphene transparent electrode in exact size and shape on a large-sized substrate. Its application to smart watch requiring flexibility will be available.

[Finetech Japan 2017] V-technology, Disclosure of FHM, feasible UHD of 738ppi

V-technology has released of FHM(Fine Hybrid Mask) which can realize UHD of 738ppi in Finetech Japan 2017 held on 5th. The existing FMM is made by braiding and welding. However, this method is not only difficult to manufacture, but also has difficulty in realizing a high resolution due to the structural limitations of mask such as pattern (hole) and deflection due to its own weight.

Ink-jet printing OLED, Next-generation large-area display

Ink-jet printing OLED is attracting public attention once again as a next-generation large-area display. At the keynote session of Finetech Japan 2017 held at Tokyo Big Sight as from May 5, CSOT in China prospected that next-generation large-area display would be ink-jet printing.
