LG Display to Release 40-inch OLED Panel in 2012

LG Display announced its plan to develop and release large-size OLED panels at FPD International 2009, which took place from Oct 28 to 30, 2009 in Yokohama, Japan.

Won Kim, LG Display's OLED sales and marketing VP, said the company plans to release a 15-inch OLED TV with a panel at the end of 2009. The panel has a pixel count of 1,366 x 768 and a resolution of 105ppi. Its maximum screen luminance with an all-white signal and an all-black signal are 200cd/m2 and 0.01cd/m2, respectively. The peak luminance is 450cd/m2.

The company also plans to release 20-inch and larger OLED panels in 2010, 30-inch and larger panels in 2011 and 40-inch and larger panels in 2012. "Forty-inch and larger OLED panels will be fairly expensive in 2012, but they will be available in the market," Kim said.

According to Kim, LG Display aims to achieve a 50% higher material cost and a 30% lower yield than those of LCD panels in 2012 and a 20-30% lower material cost and an equivalent yield in 2016.

At the exhibition site, the company exhibited the 15-inch OLED display, which was unveiled at IMID 2009, for the first time in Japan.
