OVERVIEW:

An overview of organic light emitting diode (OLED) display technology and its applications will be given. The OLED device structure and operation mechanisms will be described. Two different OLED technologies will be compared, those made by vacuum deposition of small molecules and those made by solution processing of polymers. The long term processing and fabrication potential of polymer OLEDs will be contrasted to the most recent full color demonstrators and product introductions of small molecule OLEDs. Examples of display products and demonstrators, made from small molecules and polymers, will be described in detailed.

Speaker Biography

Dr. Homer Antoniadis is a Product Development Group Manager at OSRAM-OS and has overall responsibility of designing, engineering, developing and launching the company's first display products based on light emitting polymers. Previously, Dr. Antoniadis was a member of the organic light-emitting diode (OLED) team at the Hewlett-Packard Labs in Palo Alto, CA where he contributed extensively to HP's R&D effort on OLED display technology. In the early 1990s Dr. Antoniadis worked at the University of Rochester and Xerox Corporation on organic optoelectronic devices with emphasis on xerographic photoreceptors, photodiodes/photovoltaics, and light-emitting diodes. He received his B.Sc. in Physics from University of Ioannina, Greece and his Ph.D. degree in transport physics of amorphous silicon from Syracuse University. Dr. Antoniadis is the organizer and member of program committees of multiple OLED technical symposia. He is the author of more than 40 publications in refereed journals and is a named inventor on 11 U.S. patents.
