Sony, Panasonic work together to develop OLED displays

Published:2012/6/26 3:39:00 Author:Ecco From:SeekIC

Japanese consumer electronics giants Sony Corp. and Panasonic Corp. have made an agreement on the cooperation of developing organic light emitting diode (OLED) panels and modules for TVs and large-sized displays. The two companies plan to finalize the mass production of next-generation high-resolution OLED panels and modules in 2013.

Sony has been a key developer of OLED technologies including manufacturing technologies that combine deposition and printing methods. They use flexible organic thin-film transistors to drive displays. Panasonic is also a leader in large-sized screens and has developed an "all-printing method" for OLED display production. The printed method of fabrication has the feature of producing performance competitive large-sized displays at lower cost.

Although the two companies are working together on OLED display technology, they will continue to develop and commercialize their own OLED televisions and large-sized displays at the same time.
