New Material From Dupont Shows Promise For OLED TVs

Dupont has developed new OLED materials that promise to drastically extend the life of future OLED TVs.

Great advances have been made especially in blue emitting materials;

“In addition, DuPont Displays developed some blue light-emitting materials. Among them, one with color coordinates of (0.14, 0.12) has a current efficiency of 6.0cd/A and a luminance half-life of 38,000 hours when measured with the initial luminance of 1,000cd/m², according to the company.”

For deeper blues, “If the initial luminance is set at 200cd/m², which is required for a display, the luminance half-life is calculated to be approximately 41,000 hours,” DuPont Displays said.”

This is far ahead of the current OLED TV material longevity specifically the short blue half-life of the Sony XEL-1 OLED TV.
