Flexible AMOLED display with PHOLED technology increases power efficiency

The Universal Display Corporation, along with a research center at Arizona State University, today unveiled a flexible AMOLED(INFO) display that uses phosphorescent organic light-emitting diode (PHOLED) technology printed on plastic to create a bendable, bright, and extremely low power display medium.

PHOLED technology allows the display to convert 100 percent of the electrical energy into light. Traditional fluorescent OLED(INFO) displays only convert 25 percent, meaning that the new displays will use only a quarter of the power required by current OLED screens.
