Samsung Display, LGD's MicroOLED, MicroLED Technology Investment Layout
【Lansheng Technology Information】Samsung Display and LG Display have recently been concentrating R&D capabilities to secure production processes in new business areas such as MicroOLED. In the field of Micro LED, which has not yet formed a mass production system, it has successively obtained process patents, and explored new demand sources such as XR, wearables, and vehicle displays to prepare for the future market.
According to Chosun Ilbo recently revealed that the two companies are investing heavily to obtain next-generation display process technology, which will become a new growth engine after large-size and small- and medium-size OLEDs. In particular, while Chinese display companies are chasing mobile phones and TVs in the automotive display field, both companies are focusing on stabilizing new technologies that do not yet have mass-production technology.
First of all, as far as Samsung Display is concerned, it decided to invest US$218 million to acquire emagin in the United States in May, targeting the XR market. At present, the acquisition is in the process of preparing for the approval process of business mergers in various countries, and the acquisition is expected to be completed within this year. Emagin is a company that has been developing microdisplays, key components of XR devices, since 2001, and has ultra-high resolution MicroOLED process technology.
MicroOLED is considered a key component of next-generation XR devices because it has eight times as many pixels as OLEDs of the same size. XR devices require a lot of pixels for screen quality because the distance between the eyes and the display is so close. Because it can reduce the size of the panel and extend the battery life, MicroOLED considered the best technology for XR devices.
