OLED

A lack of stable, efficient blue materials has been holding OLED technology back. Now a team of researchers is using a machine-learning system to identify efficient blue OLED molecules, and with the discovery of over a thousand new ones, soon the B in RGB might not be such a problem.

Researchers at the Pusan National University in South Korea have developed an advanced light shutter that can rapidly switch between transparency and opaqueness in less than a millisecond, paving the way for displays that become see-through at the flick of a switch.

Sony's new "head-mount image processing unit" gives surgeons virtual X-ray vision by means of an endoscope feeding images to a pair of head-mounted monitors. This setup allows surgeons to view high definition 3D images from inside the patient while carrying out laparoscopic surgery.

A team of researchers from the University of Toronto has developed a new technique to produce OLED devices that they say will accelerate the adoption of OLED technology into mainstream flat-panel displays and other lighting technologies.

Researchers have created a new type of phosphorescent material that could replace OLEDs.
