Light Emitting Polymers

A light emitting polymer is an electroelectroluminescent plastic. The molecules of this plastic emit light when an electric field is applied.

Polymer based light-emitting diodes (LED) were lightdiscovered in 1990. Cambridge Display Technology has the core patents for the Technology of LEP.

Light Emitting Polymers

Poly p-phenylenevinylene p LEP can be used in Laptop
screens, cell phones, TV screens, calculators, digital cameras, and in a future almost everything.

Light Emitting Polymers

Light Emitting Polymers have many advantages. Enable more energy efficiency They are thin which will enable then to be placed into any flat surface. There will be no limitations in size Light weight Can be seen from any angle without the loss of information Extraordinary resolution which will provide high quality imaging. Flexibility
