The current standards of display technologies, such as liquid crystal display (LCD), light emitting diode (LED) and plasma, are limited by their physical and aesthetic properties. Organic light emitting diode (OLED) displays do not have these limitations. They offer many advantages over these standards by being more efficient and versatile, in addition to being flexible and transparent [1]. Because of OLED’s superior flexibility, they are also much more durable than other display technologies. Not only are the physical characteristics of OLED displays superior to its competitors, they produce sharper images in vivid colors that are unable to be produced on other displays [2]. These physical and aesthetic advantages are possible because of an OLED’s unique composition consisting of very thin layers of material [3],[4]. This is unlike, and superior to, other displays which rely on bulky multi-component structures that need to be bound together. As a direct result of their superior characteristics, OLED displays enable the production of electronics with greater sustainability than current display technologies, such as flexible handheld devices and transparent displays. While OLED displays are not without their own limitations, color longevity and moisture sensitivity being a few, they are overall a far superior alternative to the current standards of display technologies and can be used to create a generation of sustainable electronics.
