EETimes story on SED JV

eet.com

Because SEDs drive electrons at about 10kV — close to that of CRTs — they can use phosphors widely used in CRTs. This makes them CRT equivalent self-emitting displays and very thin: a 40-inch sized panel can be no thicker than 10 mm, weigh less than 20kg and consume around 60W.

Canon has been working on this since the mid 80s, so if they launch on schedule in 2005, it'll be about two decades from inception to product launch.

Philips' prototype "shows the viability of inkjet printing on large-size panels," she [Allen of iSuppli/Stanford Resources] said.

Philips believes that once OLEDs can be manufactured using so-called roll-to-roll techniques, they will be cost-effective enough to rival LCDs and plasma display panels (PDPs).
