or Organic LED is not made of semiconductors. It's made from
carbon-based molecules. That is the key science factor that leads to potentially eliminating LEDs' biggest drawback size. The carbon-based molecules are much smaller. And according to a paper written by Dr. Uwe Hoffmann, Dr. Jutta Trube and Andreas Klppel, entitled OLED - A bright new idea for flat panel displays "OLED is brighter, thinner, lighter, and faster than the normal liquid crystal (LCD) display in use today. ... www.nanotech-now.com/nanotechnology-glossary-M-O.htm Organic Light Emitting Diodes - Newly developed by Kodak it is still only available on cell phones and PDAs. The diodes transmit light when a low current is passed through them. www.dig-mar.com/Commentaries/glossary.html organic light emitting diode www.eppic-faraday.com/acronym.html Organic Light Emitting Diode. A new type of viewing screen [display]. Can be viewed in bright lighting conditions, at greater angles, unlike LCD's. Beginning to be used in digital cameras. www.digicaminfo.btinternet.co.uk/glossary.htm organic light-emitting diode: a self-luminous diode (it glows when an electrical field is applied to the electrodes) that does not require backlighting or diffusers wordnet.princeton.edu/perl/webwn An organic light-emitting diode (OLED) is a thin-film light- emitting diode (LED) in which the emissive layer is an organic compound. These devices promise to be much cheaper to fabricate than inorganic LEDs. ... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OLED
