Introduction

This course will introduce learners to the technology of organic light emitting diode display technology. OLED displays is becoming increasingly important as a low power high contrast high resolution display option with thin form factor that is not available in other displays. The learner will learn about the device physics of organic light emitting diodes, thin film transistors, basic fabrication processes for the display module, display parameters and the degradation and encapsulation of OLED devices.

This course is part of:

- Graduate Certificate in Engineering Optics and Photonics
- FlexiMasters in Engineering Optics and Photonics
