A New Class of OLED – Gold(III)-Based Complexes with Tunable Emission-Colour
- Field
- Advanced Materials
- Patent
- IP00719
Key Problem and Market Opportunity
- Expensive due to the current evaporation-based production techniques for OLEDs involve a lot of wasted materials and costly process.
- The market for all types of OLED displays is forecasted to reach nearly $16 billions this year and will grow to $57 billion in 20261
Key Advantages of the Technology
- Broad color-tuning possibility, that is comparable to iridium(III) complexes and superior to ruthenium(II) and osmium(II) systems
- non-toxic nature and tunable emission-colour
- Cost is relatively inexpensive
- Reduce waste of material due to intense low-energy electronic absorption bands in the visible range and low temperature
- Has all advantages of OLEDs, including high luminous efficiency, low driving voltage (~ 10 V), high contrast ratio (1,000,000:1), large viewing angle (up to 178°), fast response time, full color gamut (showing 16.78 millions colors), light-weight, self-luminous pixels (requiring no backlighting), and compatibility with flexible substrates
Potential Product and Services
- Application in the following segments:
- Displays for mobile phones, tablets, notebooks and wearables
- TV panels
- Lighting
- Architectural and industrial display and lighting applications
- Automobile and aerospace
Development Status and IP Strength
- US Provisional Application No. 62/558,605
