OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diodes) are light emitting panels made from organic (carbon based) materials that emit light when electricity is applied. OLED are used today to make beautiful and efficient displays and large, efficient and beautiful lighting panels everywhere.
An OLED ‘light bulb’ is a thin film of material that emits light. OLED is the only technology that can create large “area” lighting panels (as opposed to point or line lighting enabled by LEDs and fluorescent bulbs). OLEDs can be used to make flexible and transparent panels, and can also be color-tunable. OLEDs emit beautiful soft diffused light – in fact OLEDs lighting is the closest light source to natural light (with the exception of the old incandescent lamps).
