AUO Replaces Polariser with Filter in Flexible OLED

OLED.Net reported that AUO showed a new flexible (folding inward and outward) OLED at the recent IDW event in Japan. The panel was based on a white OLED + filter architecture with a 10 μm thick filter layer. The overall thickness is 100μm and special layers are used for encapsulation and the transistor array. The company replaced a typical polariser layer with a colour filter and this halved the power consumption, while increasing the power by 3X at 300cd/m².
