Sony Teams Up With Idemitsu Kosan, Produces Super Efficient Deep Blue OLED Panels

Sony has paired up with Idemitsu Koran to produce fluorescent deep blue OLED devices with a 28.5% internal quantum efficiency (IQE), surpassing the 25% IQE of previous fluorescent devices. That means this partnership has resulted in the highest level of luminous efficiency for fluorescent OLED technology. Idemitsu supplied new carrier transport materials while Sony improved upon their current OLED technology, and not only has this improved luminous efficiency, but with Sony's "Super Top Emission" technology the blue color deepness in the new OLED devices have exceeded the NTSC standard. Perhaps most importantly, the new technology reduces the driving current of the blue OLED's, the most energy-intensive of three primary OLED colors. That means a more energy-efficient panel, something that'll play an increasingly important role in OLED TV's hitting the mainstream.
