organic light-emitting diodes (oleds)
Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) are a type of light-emitting diode (LED) technology that utilizes organic compounds to generate light. OLEDs consist of thin layers of organic materials sandwiched between two electrodes, one of which is transparent. When an electric current is applied, the organic materials emit light through a process called electroluminescence. OLEDs offer several advantages over traditional LEDs, including higher energy efficiency, faster response times, and better color reproduction. They can be made flexible and transparent, enabling the development of innovative display technologies in applications such as smartphones, televisions, and lighting solutions. OLEDs also allow for improved contrast and wider viewing angles compared to other display technologies.
