Abstract :
High costs could keep the LED´s carbon-based cousin off the shelf – A new report suggests that organic lightemitting diodes, or OLEDs, won´t come anywhere close to replacing conventional illuminators like incandescent and compact fluorescent lightbulbs in the foreseeable future. The analysis, conducted by Lux Research, a technology consultancy based in Boston, is marked by an extremely bleak projection of the worldwide OLED lighting market in 2020–a mere US $58 million in annual sales.
