Samsung, the undisputed king of OLED displays, is planning to make OLED panels that are not only brighter but also cheaper than current panels. To make this happen, Samsung Display is collaborating with the Japanese firm TSK Corporation. This is the first time Samsung has partnered with a venture company for joint development.
TSK Corporation has announced that it is collaborating with Samsung Display to develop next-generation blue OLED materials using iron catalysts. TSK's proprietary iron catalysts technology has been recognized by Samsung Display, and a paper about it, co-authored by the two firms and a South Korean university professor, was published in international academic journal Nature's Communications Materials section.
Iron derivatives are an alternative to Palladium, which is quite costly and has limited availability. Traditionally, Palladium catalysts are used in synthesis of OLED materials, and the raw materials are usually sourced from Russia or South Africa. Not only is it costly and hard to source, environmental pollution and sustainability concerns have also been it raised about it.
TSK claims it has created an alternative chemical process that is more environment friendly and significantly simple compared to using Palladium. Together with Samsung Display, TSK aims to develop blue OLEDs with a higher efficiency and longer lifespan.
If all goes well, we could be seeing even more power efficient and brighter OLED panels. Those panels could be used in smartphones, tablets, TVs, and more. However, there is no clear information on when we might see those improvements.
