TFT-LCD and AMOLED display technology comparisons

Yasuhiro Ukai

Abstract

This chapter discusses comparison of thin-film transistor-liquid-crystal display (TFT-LCD) with active-matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) regarding their display performance and manufacturing. AMOLED has been expected to realize much excellent display quality, lower power consumption, and lower manufacturing cost than TFT-LCD. Such expectation has been partly realized in the category of small-sized organic light-emitting diode (OLED). However, manufacturing cost remains as an issue, the feasibility of production on glass whose size is comparable to the size of substrate of large format TFT-LCD has yet to be established. Furthermore, we discuss how to build a firm position for TFT-LCD.
