Xbit's interesting insight on the new displays... (http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/editorial/display/oled.html)
Pretty long read...but interesting...
Some highlights:
"Do you know where the today’s LCD displays come from? And where this industry is going to? OLED technology is going to be the next huge breakthrough in the display evolution. Our detailed investigation of the screen evolution history will help you to get ready for the new OLED era."
"OLED means Organic Light Emitting Diode. The two crucial differences from LCDs lurk in the name – “organic” and “light-emitting”. Let’s dwell upon each of them to understand why this technology is so promising and why it is going to be a step beyond LCD."
"When a current of 2.5V and more appears, the base layer emits photons. The photon stream becomes more intense along with the growth of the current strength, in a linear proportion. Thus, 10V voltage produces brightness over 1000 candela per square meter, which is two times more than present-day LCD screens offer (while the theoretically possible maximum is over 100,000 candela per square meter!). The intensity peak of the spectrum falls to 550nm wavelength. It corresponds to green light."
"Samsung and Vitex stated that they were working to bring full-color OLED displays to the market by the end of 2004. According to them, their OLED monitors will be twice lighter and thinner than today’s LCDs."
