Applied Materials MAX OLED will bring 3x higher brightness and 5x longer life, Samsung will use it

Technology OLED is becoming mainstream, but the question is how long this will be with ever-improving alternative technologies such as Micro LED, which do not suffer from the typical ailments of OLED. Companies Applied Materials but managed to significantly advance the levels of OLED panels thanks to new technology MAX OLED. The new technology is planned to be used e.g. Samsung, China’s Visionox and Japan Display. The new pixel structure allows for a much larger active area, which brings several significant benefits that solve many pressing problems of OLED displays. It should be compatible with Gen 6 to Gen 8 glass substrates.

Thanks to the larger pixel area, the brightness should increase up to 3 times. We know that OLED displays usually have excellent peak brightness in a small area, which is useful for HDR, but they are usually not very good across the board. This could help a lot. The new technology should also make it possible to increase the resolution up to 2000 ppi, i.e. up to 2.5 times. At the same time, the flow of light to the neighboring pixels should be reduced, thus increasing the contrast and contributing to the resolution. Due to the fact that less current is needed for the same brightness, consumption is reduced by a significant 30% and above all, the problem of image burn-in is minimized. The lifetime of MAX OLED panels should be 5 times that of FMM OLED. Another advantage of the technology should be that one factory could now produce OLED panels from the smallest for wearables to the largest for televisions.
