With the support of the DOE, Universal Display has been working on developing highly-efficient white OLEDs for use in myriad lighting applications.
Dr. James Brodrick, DOE Lighting Program Manager, recognized Universal Display??s achievement in setting efficiency records for white OLED lighting. Dr. Michael Hack of Universal Display also spoke about recent advances and Universal Display??s development of white OLED lighting in a presentation titled ??Pushing the Envelope for White OLED Efficiencies.? In particular, Dr. Hack highlighted Universal Display??s 2008 demonstration of a white OLED light source with record luminous efficiency of 102 lumens per Watt (lm/W), a significant leap forward in OLED efficiency. That milestone placed OLED development well on the way to achieving the DOE??s target of a 150 lm/W OLED lighting device by 2015.
