Bringing cheaper, 'greener' lighting to market with inkjet-printed hybrid quantum dot LEDs

Tuesday, June 4, 2013 - 11:01 in Physics & Chemistry

It's not easy going green. For home lighting applications, organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) hold the promise of being both environmentally friendly and versatile. Though not as efficient as regular light-emitting diodes (LEDs), they offer a wider range of material choices and are more energy efficient than traditional lights. OLEDs can also be applied to flexible surfaces, which may lead to lights or television displays that can be rolled up and stowed in a pocket.
