OLED Display Forecasts 2014-2024: The Rise of Plastic and Flexible Displays
M2 - Thu Aug 14, 8:56AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/4mdb53/oled_display) has announced the addition of the "OLED Display Forecasts 2014-2024: The Rise of Plastic and Flexible Displays" report to their offering. The next evolution is plastic and flexible displays with the first flagship phone with a flexible display to ship in 2017. Based on this scenario, the market for plastic and flexible AMOLED displays will rise to $16bn by 2020. OLED displays are thinner, lighter, and offer better color performances compared to backlit liquid crystal displays (LCD).

The rise of plastic and flexible displays will be accompanied by a shift from glass substrates to plastic substrates such as polyimide. However, glass-based displays will remain an important technology, especially in TV applications where scale-up and cost reduction are still big challenges. Flat and curved OLED TVs were recently launched by Samsung and LG. While the market for OLED TV panels will be relatively small in 2014, it will experience strong growth in the next ten years, with a projected 42% CAGR. Key Topics Covered: 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 2.
