Taiwan development of OLED lighting and Japanese cooperation is a strategy

CTIMES - LED is now in the global lighting market has become a trend in all kinds of lighting applications, all can see traces of LED, but in addition, already familiar with OLED technology, also began to move the lighting applications. About OLED lighting market development, project manager and Optoelectronics Association senior industry analyst Lv Shaoxu believes that LED and OLED in lighting applications should be complementary, basically no problem. But the next question to ask is, OLED lighting in the development will face what kind of challenge? From Frankfurt lighting exhibition, or lighting exhibition Lighting Japan and several other indicators of international level, it is not difficult to see that the ability to drive to the OLED light source for lighting industry, is the world famous manufacturers, such as Toshiba, LG and UDC, due to the input of OLED lighting, need to invest huge resources and development the current cost, probably only this kind of index of manufacturers have the ability to put these, and most of the OLED lighting industry, located in the "promotion stage", is not the main source of lighting technology.

Lv Shaoxu further said that OLED itself has many features in the lighting field, like transparent, soft light, no glare, the surface temperature of the surface light source of low and high color rendering, but as mentioned above, because the cost is too high, so most of the first major factories put OLED in a niche market, like a night our common lamp, you can use the OLED light source. So OLED lighting in the promotion of the early stage, will encounter LED lighting was originally in the promotion, the problem faced: the cost is too high.

Lv Shaoxu also pointed out that although LED and OLED can complement each other in the field of lighting, for Taiwan industry, due to the OLED problem of high cost, if the Taiwan industry to invest in the short term, you can see there will be an arduous. In addition, may also face patent problems at this stage into the OLED lighting industry, mostly in the Japanese industry are mostly related patents are held in the Dachang hand, therefore, in cooperation with the Japanese industry, opened up another road OLED lighting, which is feasible for the practice of. But Lv Shaoxu also reminded that due to the reasons for the high cost, OLED lighting market will not see significant growth in at least five years, this is the place to be noted.
