Power Paper, an Infinity Group portfolio company, and GE Global Research, the technology development arm for the General Electric Company (NYSE: GE), announced today that the companies have signed an agreement to jointly develop self-powered OLED lighting devices. Using low-cost, high volume manufacturing processes, these devices could be deployed in a wide variety of environments from military ships to night-time jogging vests. The collaboration is supported by an Israel-U.S. Binational Industrial Research and Development Foundation (BIRD Foundation) program.

Sheila Tandon of GE Global Research explains how she is redefining what's possible in lighting technology with OLEDs.

General Electric show a very interesting video about OLED lighting. GE show some very nice design concepts check out this video.GE debuted this video at the LightFair International 2009 trade show in New York City.

Displaysearch released a new OLED lighting report, the main message from this report is that the OLED lighting era begins in 2011.

That year, big OLED players such as Philips, GE, Konica Minolta, and OSRAM will finally ramp up production.

The Ge global research team take some roll-to-roll OLED lighting panels and make some christmas tree.

GE Consumers & Industrial and GE Global Research have suspended the development of the high-efficiency incandescent lamp (HEI) to place greater focus and investment on what we believe will be the ulti

The size of a semitrailer, it coats an 8-inch wide plastic film with chemicals, then seals them with a layer of metal foil. Apply electric current to the resulting sheet, and it lights up with a blue-white glow.

GE plans to build a larger machine that can print panels several feet wide. Its output could be sold commercially as early as 2010, Duggal said, but he acknowledged that's a "very aggressive" goal.

OLEDs are very thin sheets of polymers or plastic materials that illuminate if an electrical charge is applied.

Ge Global research shows us some great video about the potential of OLED lighting products.

GE has demonstrated an ultra high barrier thin-film encapsulation process on a wide variety of OLED structures through a batchmode, plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition process, which solves a cr
