The company DuPont is building a new facility, which has the cost of no less than U.S. $ 30 million, in its research center called the Stine-Haskell Newark which has the sole purpose of reducing the cost of production of OLED panels.
The idea that DuPont researchers have in order to reduce the manufacturing cost is to use a spray-printing technique. Through this printer can handle very great volumes of production and thus produce a 50-inch panel in minutes (literally 2 minutes). This process is not fully optimized but the company revealed that during the last quarter of 2011 spent no less than U.S. $ 20 million to license this technology. No one spends that money just to try. That means that eventually, this process will work perfectly.
The only companies that had OLED screens are LG and Samsung, it seems that the benefit in this manufacturing process that DuPont would be the second degree as there would be an agreement between both companies. We'll see how this technology evolves but the important thing here is that if LG does not get a way to counter the low cost of manufacturing that Samsung will have the market will be overrun by their TVs because the price will be much lower even with the same characteristics.
