When choosing a new television key technologies what we currently have at hand: LCD-LED and OLED, each with different versions, advantages and disadvantages.

OLED stands out with its features excellent contrasthowever, it falls short in terms of its brightness-providing capacity; this is something the industry has been working on for years with small improvements in each generation and will make a significant quantitative leap from next year.

Micro lenses for 20% more brightness in 2023

The main and most urgent change, LG Display The last Display Week in May was in 2022, when they announced they had already received their new screen. MLA (‘Meta-lit Lens Array’) technology for next generation OLED panels.

It is an evolution of EX technology that is already available on the market and they aim to be able to compete with existing technology. [QD-OLED]Manufactured by Samsung in terms of (Display Week 2022). glitter delivery.

MLA technology, microlenses applied to organic LEDs to regulate the passage of light inside the panel. This provides better sensitivity when transmitting reflections from the outside, which in practice means more brightness.

According to LG data, the improvement is remarkable, approx. 20% additional brightness has the same electricity consumption, which can both offer brighter TVs and keep the current brightness, allowing panels to use 20% less electrical energy.

PHOLED for 2024

In addition to this improvement in microlenses, the industry is already considering the next evolutionary step of OLED, this is probably PHOLED technology or Phosphorus organic light emitting diodesAs commented on the Global Material Parts Equipment Tech Show recently organized by Universal Display (UDC), a leading manufacturer of panel materials.

Currently, light generation in OLED panels is fluorescent and phosphorescent technology (PHOLED)The first is used for blue sub-pixels, and the second for red and green sub-pixels.

PHOLED is more efficient and is partially responsible for the developments in OLED panels in recent years, but there are still difficulties in its implementation in blue emitters, which is currently only a 25% efficiency compared to 100% of their red and green counterparts.

According to Universal Display, this is the case. It will change from 2024because they stated that they already have a ready evolution in the production process to allow this. Generate blue pixels of type PHOLED that existing panels will be significantly improved.

With this shift towards phosphorous emissions, brighter, more efficient OLED panelsbut at the same time more durable before the eclipses and was burned.
