Organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) were first reported in the 1970s by a Kodak scientist, with color improvements in the late 1980s. OLEDs use organic chemicals that emit light in response to electricity, making them lighter and more power efficient than traditional displays. While similar to LEDs which also emit light when electricity passes through, OLEDs use organic materials rather than inorganic semiconductors.

Background
Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED)
Kodak scientist Dr. Ching (1970s) OLED materials reported in 1987 Color improvements by 1989 Becoming a major competetor with todays LCD/plasma displays
OLED/LED: Whats the diff?
Both OLED and LED use the same principle of
electroluminescence- the optical and electrical phenomenon where certain materials emit light in response to an electric current passing through it. OLED Lighter
weight Perform at lower efficiencies Less power consumption Organic based chemicals
