74.1L: Late‐News Paper: Oxide TFTs and Color Filter Array Technology for Flexible Top‐emission White OLED Display

Abstract

We have developed a direct fabrication method of oxide TFT on a flexible substrate and a flexible color filter array (CFA) technology for white OLED. The oxide TFT is successfully integrated on the flexible substrate and the fabricated display achieved wide color gamut of NTSC (in CIE u'v' space) more than 100%.

A 5.5‐inch full HD foldable AMOLED display based on neutral‐plane splitting concept

“…Foldable displays, which are size‐adjustable, offer a promising solution to the portability–practicality trade‐off . Various displaying modes, such as electronic paper, liquid crystal, and organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs), have been proposed for foldable displays . The mobile device displays must also satisfy other specifications such as high‐resolution, low‐power consumption, light weight, thinness, durability, and flexible design.…”

“…The mobile device displays must also satisfy other specifications such as high‐resolution, low‐power consumption, light weight, thinness, durability, and flexible design. OLED displays are very promising because they have simple structures without backlight units and realize excellent image quality …”

Perspectives on Energy Storage for Flexible Electronic Systems

“…Conventional batteries that rely on air sensitive chemistry, such as lithium polymer, require high barrier packaging which is usually provided by relatively inelastic metal foil laminates that are hundreds of microns if not millimeters from the center of the cell. This is similar to the barrier needs for moisture and oxygen sensitive flexible displays, such as OLEDs, however, flexible OLEDs benefit from the fact that they can be inherently thin, with the micron scale stacks of active layers and their inorganic barriers films contained near the neutral zone in a flexed module [3], [38], [39].…”

Novel Roll-to-Roll Deposition and Patterning of ITO on Ultra-Thin Glass for Flexible OLEDs

“…Barrier films may be believed as most common flexible substrates for flexible OLED devices at present. Indeed, many flexible OLED displays are reported to utilize flexible barrier films [3]- [5] and R2R fabrication of flexible OLEDs with barrier films has also been reported [6]. However, the gas barrier technologies of barrier films still have issues because of the expensive cost, the difficulty of production, etc.…”
