OLED is the most portable screen with a high picture quality

Japan’s biggest business daily, ‘The Nikkei’ has reported on the lightest and most portable flexible screen named OLED. Introduced by Toshiba, the OLED constitutes the most portable and flexible screen, with a size of 0.1 mm and a weight of 1g.

OLED is the first flexible screen introduced by Toshiba. Attaching an oxide semiconductor TFT, the OLED builds a plastic substrate at the temperature of 200 °C which, in turn results in a new display of 90%. The founder of this system has a reason for using the plastic substrate. He didn’t want to attach the TFT with a glass substrate that needs to be handled at a higher temperature than 320°C. Moreover, the use of a plastic substrate offers a lighter display than the glass substrate. However, the most attractive feature of OLED is that it can possess a picture quality over a longer period of time than the other products as per the reports from ‘The Nikkei’.

Even though the term ‘long’ specified by Toshiba in this case is not clear, the functions of the OLED are quite clearly given. The TFTs too are handled at a much lower temperature than it is normally used. Additionally, the display created as a result of the attachment of the oxide semiconductor TFT to a plastic substrate can also be used over long time, and that too without any problems like screen burn-ins, loss in contrast and so on like other products.

Popularly known for its successful businesses in laptops, personal computers, phones, LCD TVs, refrigerators etc, the OLED is a newer concept for Toshiba, which is doing a good sell off. The company aims to make use of the new production displays for super thin as well as larger displays too, which it plans to implement by the year 2014 or 2015.
