In the past few months, several monitor manufacturers revealed their environmental sensitive side of display. With limited power consumption and energy saving options, monitors are leading the eco-friendly technology inside everyone’s house. This time, this Winter, LG Electronics is going to unleash another monitor breakthrough supporting ultra thin design and green movement as well.
Thanks to OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diodes) technology, LG Displays could be thinner, lighter, with better and more realistic colours, plus enviromental friendly. Notice that its design is less than 5mm ultra thin and light. Also, the contrast ratio is higher than 100,000:1, which is higher than the LCD panels equivelant. Last but not least, the response speed of its pixels is 1,000 times or more faster than that of the LCD panels.
“Our objective has always been to actively define and lead emerging display technology markets. Although OLED technology is seen as the future of TV display, the technology has been limited to smaller display sizes and by high costs, until now. LG Display’s 55-inch OLED TV panel has overcome these barriers.” Dr. Sang Beom Han, CEO and Executive Vice President of LG Display said.
Furthermore, LG engineers have adopted Oxide TFT technology for backplane. This means that these type of panels are able to produce identical image quality to high performance of LTPS base panels at significantly reduced investment levels. Thus, WOLED is born.
WOLED technology uses white OLED which apparently vertically accumulates the red, green and blue diodes, which leads to higher productivity, and a clearer Ultra Definition screen. This low electricity consumption in web browsing mode is identical for smart monitors.
More information are soon to be revealed in LG’s booth at the 2012 International CES, a trade show for consumer electronics, which will take place from January 10 to 13, 2012, in Las Vegas.
