DoE Releases OLED Market Report for 2016
DoE recognizes that it is still a lot of work to make OLEDs competitive, especially to bring it within the necessary range of cost and energy performance. According to the report, also reaching high color quality, dimming performance, optical performance, and standardized, interchangeable components are necessary factors to improve to make OLEDs a viable and desired product.
The report, "OLED Lighting Products: Capabilities, Challenges, Potential", focuses on the potential for architectural OLED lighting – describing currently available OLED products as well as promised improvements, and addresses the technology and market hurdles that have thus far prevented wider use of OLEDs. The report can be downloaded from the DoE website or directly at http://energy.gov/sites/prod/files/2016/06/f33/ssl_oled-products_2016.pdf
