OLED-TV Display/Monitor Technology News

Vitex Systems, Inc. is commercializing transparent ultra-thin barrier films for use in the manufacture of next-generation flat panel displays (FPDs). The company's proprietary encapsulation solution (Barix™) as well as its Flexible Glass substrate are landmark developments designed to enable the cost-effective production of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays that are lighter in weight and thickness than any other commercially available displays. As a result, Vitex will enable today's FPD manufacturers to discover the long sought-after 'Holy Grail' of the industry – robust, high-performance displays as thin and flexible as a sheet of paper.Headquartered in San Jose, Calif., privately held Vitex was incubated at the world-class Battelle Memorial Institute, a global leader in science and technology research. Spun-off as an independent company in 1999, Vitex is armed with a strong IP portfolio and technology solutions to become a market leader for thin-film barrier coatings and flexible substrates for the burgeoning FPD market. Vitex's landmark development of a thin-film moisture barrier technology continues to gain acceptance within the industry due to its demonstrated ability to to meet the rigorous environmental requirements for thin-film encapsulation of bottom- and top-emission OLEDs. In addition, this technology can be applied to a wide range of organic semiconductor applications such as photovoltaics and batteries.
