The EU launched a new project (called ENAB-SPOLED) that aims to use solution-based OLED materials to enable high performing cost competitive OLEDs for the lighting market and to develop a functional luminaire demonstrator. More specifically, the project partners will develop new materials (transport materials, emitters), new optical technologies for light guiding, and also process technologies for solution processing of small molecule and P-OLEDs.
This 2-year project has a budget of €4 million and is supported by Germany and Austria. The project partners are Novaled, Cambridge Display Technology, Tridonic, Zumbotel and teh Fraunhofer IAP. More information can be found here.
