Flexible OLED Market Analysis

The Global Flexible OLED Market is expected to register a CAGR of 39.4% during the forecast period. OLED display technology, which provides beautiful and efficient lighting panels, is already being used in many mobile devices and TVs. Flexible OLED is the next-generation technology that enables opportunities for folding and curving these displays on applications.

• OLED is an emerging display technology that enables beautiful and efficient displays and lighting panels. OLEDs are already being used in many mobile devices and TVs, and the next generation of these panels will be flexible and bendable. OLEDs are the latest generation technology in the display industry and provide superior performance and enhanced optical characteristics compared to older LED and LCDs.
• The usage of flexible display technology in smartphones and tablets looks a bit unclear as with external factors such as user acceptability, protection and cost-effectiveness being some of the major challenges to be met by the smartphone companies, but it can find its wide usage in other industry such as automobiles and transportation.
• As of the recent developments Samsung Display plans to build a new 6-Gen flexible OLED line. The new line will replace a current LCD line that is used to produce TVs at SDC's Asan plant. The new fab, will cost around KRW 3 trillion or around USD 2.7 billion and will have a monthly capacity of 30,000 monthly substrates. This will increase Samsung Display AMOLED production capacity to 195,000 monthly substrates.
• Also, in November 2021, Samsung Displays, entered the medium-sized OLED market with the new high-refresh-rate displays for laptops. Samsung Display's flexible OLED screens can be folded, rolled, or slid. It feature high brightness, HDR10+ content playback, a low folding radius (R1.4), and better screen protection (UTG) compared to products from rival firms. The displays can be folded more than 200,000 times, equivalent to 100 folds and unfolds every day for five years.
• Further, the market is witnessing innovation. In January 2022, the customized 3D printing of a flexible organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display has been developed by a team from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities in the United States. The breakthrough, which is based on the conversion of electricity into light using an organic material layer, could lead to inexpensive OLED displays for handheld or wearable electronics made at home using 3D printers.
• COVID-19 has had a detrimental influence on the market as a result of several cities being shut down, causing damage to the supply chain for phone and display production, and reducing smartphone sales around the world. With more strict measures being imposed by governments throughout the world, the lockdown, which has brought economic activity to a halt, is projected to have a stronger impact in the near future. A lengthy lockdown has resulted in the temporary closure of factories, causing production and shipping of commodities to be hampered.

Flexible OLED Market Trends

This section covers the major market trends shaping the Flexible OLED Market according to our research experts:

Mobiles and Televisions to Witness Significant Growth

• With increased smartphone adoption globally, the demand for high-definition ultra-high displays is growing quickly. With many companies, such as Apple and Samsung employing AMOLED displays in their flagship models, other companies are following the trend.
• But still, a flexible OLED provides several advantages, especially in mobile devices, such as lighter, thinner, and more durable displays than glass-based displays. These proved to be an important asset for mobile phone manufacturers, as they provided better performance, durability, and a reduction in weight.
• For instance, in May 2022, LG Display Co. Ltd announced bringing its next-generation OLED solutions to the 2022 Society for Information Display (SID) conducted in San Jose, California. The products included OLED.EX to Bendable and Foldable OLED panels. This innovation is expected to solidify the company's OLED leadership in the market studied.
• Additionally, in January 2022, the company announced to be preparing to supply OLED panels for the apple iPad by 2024. The company is planning to ramp up production in 2024, and it is expected that the first OLED iPad will undergo manufacturing before that.
• Further, various companies have been releasing smartwatches with flexible displays to stay ahead of the competition. In July 2020, the Nubia watch was released with a flexible AMOLED screen and eSIM support, among other features. The display is a 4.01-inch (960x192 pixels) flexible, bendable OLED display with 244ppi pixel density.

Asia-Pacific to Witness the Fastest Growth Rate

• The economies of major countries like India and China are growing, leading to an increase in the disposable incomes of consumers. Hence, moving toward adopting high-end electronic products, such as curved televisions and premium smartphones. Thus, driving the flexible OLED market in the region.
• For instance, in June 2021, Samsung announced the development of a flexible OLED display that could be invaluable to future wearable devices that can be stuck to the skin and conform to its surface. To create a flexible display, Samsung created individual OLED pixels that themselves are ridged and sit on a flexible elastomer surface. Connections between the OLEDs are made using a flexible material, as are the traces that connect the display to the driver system.
• Moreover, Chinese companies are moving quickly to set up large-scale production bases to churn out OLEDs. BOE is constructing a production plant for smaller OLEDs in the southwestern Chinese city of Chongqing. The OLED production line is the largest for a single factory in China, producing 115 million panels annually.
• Also, the Tech giant, Apple Inc., is investing in developing its foldable phone and has planned to start the assembly plant in India for premium iPhones. The commencement of this plant will make its phones available at cheaper rates than it is in the country. Hence, the demand will drive the growth of the flexible OLED market in the region.

OLED displays use organic materials that emit light when electricity is applied. OLEDs enable emissive, bright, thin, flexible and efficient displays. OLEDs are set to replace LCDs in all display applications - from small displays to large TV sets.

PMOLED: Passive Matrix OLED

PMOLED stands for Passive-Matrix OLED, which relates to the way you control (or drive) the display. A PMOLED display uses a simple control scheme in which you control each row (or line) in the display sequentially (one at a time). PMOLED electronics do not contain a storage capacitor and so the pixels in each line are actually off most of the time. To compensate for this you need to use more voltage to make them brighter. If you have 10 lines, for example, you have to make the one line that is on 10 times as bright (the real number is less then 10, but that's the general idea).

So while PMOLEDs are easy (and cheap) to fabricate, they are not efficient and the OLED materials suffer from lower lifetime (due to the high voltage needed). PMOLED displays are also restricted in resolution and size (the more lines you have, the more voltage you have to use). PMOLED displays are usually small (up to 3" typically) and are used to display character data or small icons: they are being used in wearable devices, small gadgets and sub displays

PMOLED vs AMOLED

The other kind of OLED display is called an AMOLED (or Active-Matrix OLED). An AMOLED uses a TFT that contains a storage capacitor which maintains the line pixels lit all the time (even though just one line is changed each time). AMOLEDs consume less power than PMOLEDs, have faster refresh rates and allows to build larger display with higher resolutions. AMOLEDs are also more complicated and expensive to fabricate.

AMOLEDs today are being used as displays for smartphones, digital cameras - and even OLED TVs.

Flexible and transparent PMOLEDs

Some small and simple flexible (conformable) PMOLED displays are already on the market. Japan's Futaba for example is producing several such displays, including a 1.4" 128x16 film PMOLED display adopted in several fitness bands from Garmin, HTC and others.

Transparent PMOLEDs are currently in development, with some segmented panels already on the market - but as of early 2018, no dot-matrix transparent PMOLEDs are available.

Looking for PMOLED suppliers?

Are you looking to adopt an PMOLED display for your device? Today there are several PMOLED producers (mostly in China and Taiwan), each making their own kinds of standard and custom PMOLED displays, with a total of dozens of different displays on the market.
