Technology Agreement for Large AMOLED TV Displays

DuPont announced (November 2, 2011) that it has signed a technology licensing agreement with a leading Asian manufacturer of Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode (AMOLED) display products.  The agreement will enable process technology developed by DuPont to be used in the company's production of large AMOLED television displays.  The DuPont AMOLED process technology enables large displays to be produced at significantly lower cost than alternative technologies.  Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

DuPont has developed a proprietary solution-based printing technology that efficiently dispenses liquid OLED materials that it has developed to optimize display yields and performance.  The process is designed to significantly cut production costs for television-sized displays when compared to the current methods of producing AMOLED or LCD displays.

"Over the last several years, DuPont has used its substantial resources as a market-driven science company to solve significant technical challenges associated with the cost-effective manufacture of AMOLED displays. As a result, DuPont has developed a unique manufacturing process and innovative materials tailored to work with it," said William F. Feehery, global business director, DuPont Electronics & Communications.  "By licensing display manufacturers to make AMOLED displays using DuPont process technology, we will also build a business selling proprietary DuPont OLED materials."
