OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) – the future of light. A two-dimensional light source that emits soft, mostly glare-free light without generating sharply defined shadows. OLEDs are extremely thin. The total thickness of their active layers is less than 500 nanometers (nm). 100 times thinner than a human hair. The total thickness of the components is about two millimeters, including the glass substrate and encapsulation. It is actually possible to reduce this value considerably further by using thinner or more flexible substrates and a thin film encapsulation.
White OLEDs with their broadband emission spectrum produce lighting of high quality with excellent color reproduction (CRI of 80 or higher). OLEDs can be easily dimmed to any brightness level by changing the operating current.
