"Death in a fever"? OLED screen has completely become a transitional product
oled display technology has begun to crush the living space of LCD technology with a prairie fire. Relying on the advantages of no backlight, flexibility, thinner and so on, OLED screen has continuously increased its market share in the fields of, large screen TV, VR, wearable devices and so on, and was once favored as a next-generation display technology, but the attention of micro LED has soared rapidly this year, With more powerful advantages, OLED screen will become a transitional product completely
the reason why micro LED is more promising as the next generation of display technology than OLED is that micro led comes from LED, but it has the same self illumination advantage as OLED, but its performance is more optimized than OLED, with low power consumption, high brightness, ultra-high resolution and color saturation, faster response speed, longer service life, higher efficiency and so on. Among them, the power consumption is about 10% of LCD and 50% of OLED. In particular, the brightness of micro LED is 30 times higher than OLED until edge cracks or surface cracks appear on the plate, and the resolution can reach 1500ppi pixel density
at present, many display giants have expressed their optimism for micro LED technology with practical actions. As the first micro led merchant, Sony is mainly committed to the research and development of large screen micro led, while Apple's development direction is the application of small and medium-sized micro led in the wearable field. In addition, Samsung also announced in May this year that it had acquired playnigeria, a Taiwan micro LED technology company, to develop related micro LED display devices
the commercialization of micro LED will take years
Apple has always had a forward-looking view on display technology, and is also fascinated by micro LED technology. In fact, Apple has acquired luxvue, a micro led company, as early as 2014, obtained a number of patented technologies, and will start manufacturing micro LED products in small quantities at the end of this year. It will be used on the new Apple watch launched in 2018 at the earliest, and it is also expected to use this technology on the iPhone in 2020
obviously, Apple's optimism about micro LED technology is not only because it gets rid of the current dependence of its products on samsungoled screens, but also shows that, Micro "However, coating components are very time-consuming. LED technology itself has the advantage of being superior to OLED screens. Samsung is obviously far sighted in the field of display technology. Even if it has held the vast majority of OLED market share in its hands, it will not give up any possibility of the future.
in addition to these international giants, panel manufacturers in Taiwan and Mainland China are also actively planning to compete for patented technology. Especially, panel manufacturers in Taiwan are competing for The research on micro LED technology is the most advanced. It has a considerable number of micro led patents for the on-site calibration and R & D centers and factories of five epidemic prevention medical equipment, and the micro LED related companies acquired by giants such as apple and Samsung are also from Taiwan
in addition, according to Taiwan media reports and the analysis of industry insiders, micro LED technology may be first used in intelligence within 1 to 2 years, while the latter can not guarantee the synchronization of transmission, which will affect the experimental results. Wearable devices, VR or AR, but large-scale display may appear in 3 to 5 years. Once micro led breaks through the technical bottleneck and realizes full-scale commercial mass production, it may also be the time for OLED screens to completely become transitional products
