Sony Corporation (‘Sony’) announced today that it had developed a super-flexible 80 μm-thick 4.1-in 121 ppi OTFT*1driven full color OLED display which can be wrapped around a thin cylinder.To create the display, Sony developed OTFTs using an original organic semiconductor material (a PXX derivative) with eight times*2 the current modulation of conventional OTFTs. This was achieved due to the development of integration technologies of OTFTs and OLEDs on an ultra-thin 20 μm thick flexible substrate (a flexible on-panel gate-driver circuit with OTFTs which is able to get rid of conventional rigid driver IC chips that interfere with the roll-up of a display) and soft organic insulators for all the insulators in the integration cuircuit. By combining these technologies, Sony successfully demonstrated the world’s first OLED panel,*3 which is capable of reproducing moving images while being repeatedly rolled-up and stretched around a cylinder with a radius of 4 mm.
(NOTE: Why the *1, *2, *3? They must relate to items in the original article.)
