CDT, Sumitomo Chemical and Novaled collaborate to create new OLED products

Topics: Industry Cambridge Display Technology (CDT) and Sumitomo Chemicals are both major manufacturers of polymer organic light-emitting diodes (P-OLEDs), while Novaled is a leader in high-efficiency pin OLED products and doping materials. The three parties have signed a joint development agreement to jointly study the feasibility and benefits of new materials and PIN OLED products on P-OLED devices.



CDT, Sumitomo Chemical and Novaled plan to jointly develop hybrid OLED devices that combine a new polymer luminescent layer with a doped electron transport layer. It is expected that such hybrid devices will improve power efficiency without increasing production complexity. The three parties have reached an agreement on the way in which the intellectual property generated in this joint development agreement (JDA) is handled. In addition, Novaled will authorize CDT to add the intellectual property of the necessary Novaled devices to its existing and future licenses. Each company is responsible for the individual development of materials developed in the joint development activities.

CDT CEO David Fyfe said: "CDT will continue to focus on supporting P-OLED supply? It is also a pleasure to participate in another joint development project. This project has the potential to create some new materials for our licensees and Better device performance."

Kazuhiko Miyata, general manager of Sumitomo Chemical's new business development department, said: "We are very excited about the successful joint development agreement between CDT and Novaled that will bring new materials and devices and will be used in future product projects. With the support of CDT and Novaled, which are leaders in their respective fields, we can introduce more new products to the market."

Novaled CEO Gildas Sorin said: "PIN OLED technology makes Novaled a leader in high-efficiency OLED devices, and is also recognized as a supplier of specialized doping materials and organic transmission materials. We are very pleased to be P-OLED devices. The development of this contribution has made it impossible to see cooperation with CDT and Sumitomo Chemical. Our strategy is to promote doping materials to all organic electronics fields. This joint development agreement is in line with our strategy."

About P-OLEDs
Compared to other display technologies, P-OLED has several inherent advantages, such as:
P-OLED is one of the OLED family and is a luminescent technology: P-OLED devices emit light with their electrical manipulation.
P-OLED displays contain polymeric materials deposited on glass or plastic without the need for other components such as backlights or filters.
P-OLED technology has excellent energy efficiency and also contributes to the emergence of ultra-thin light-emitting displays that operate at lower voltages.
The result is a display with higher brightness and sharpness. The viewing angle is close to 180 degrees. The structure is simple, the price is cheaper, the display module is more durable, and the ultra-fast response time can display the full temperature even at low temperatures. Color image.

About CDT

Headquartered in Cambourne, near Cambridge, England, Cambridge Display Technology (CDT) is a pioneer in the development of polymeric organic light-emitting diodes for a variety of electronic display products for information management, communications and entertainment. P-OLED (Polymerized Organic Light Emitting Diode) is one of the OLED family. It is a light and power-saving device that emits light when current flows. Compared to other flat panel display technologies such as LCDs, P-OLEDs offer a enhanced viewing experience and superior performance features, and a key advantage in the printing process. CDT was purchased by Sumitomo Chemical in September 2007. The two companies worked together to study luminescent polymer technology for display and luminescence applications and pushed it into commercialization.

About Sumitomo Chemical

Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd. is one of the best chemical companies in Japan. As of March 31, 2008, its total sales amounted to 1.9 trillion yen. Sumitomo Chemical offers a wide range of products in a wide range of fields, including basic chemistry, petrochemistry, precision chemistry, IT related chemistry, agrochemicals, and pharmaceutical chemistry. Sumitomo Chemical regards display materials as its core business. While continuing to expand its LCD materials business, it also focuses on the development of next-generation display materials, with a focus on P-OLEDs.

Sumitomo Chemical began developing P-OLEDs in 1989 and signed a technical assistance agreement with CDT Ltd. of Cambridge, England, in 2001, including the licensing of luminescent materials. In May 2002, Sumitomo Chemical made an equity investment in CDT to establish a closer cooperation and to promote P-OLED to commercial use. Subsequent Sumitomo Chemical and CDT established the joint venture Sumation to further develop P-OLED materials and introduce P-OLED materials into commercial use.
