their near term introduction to the lighting market will be of major importance

Thanks to characteristics such as being ultra flat, transparent, flexible and colour tunable, OLEDs offer completely new opportunities in the field of displays and special luminaires.

Europe is not only a pioneer when it comes to energy efficiency and in preserving the environment, but also in product design. The ban on incandescent light bulbs and the need for energy efficient and innovative light sources puts new technologies in the spotlight. Therefore LEDs and their near term introduction to the lighting market will be of major importance”, says Dr. Blochwitz-Nimoth, Project Leader of So-light and CSO of Novaled AG. “The participation of leading German companies in So-light will ensure a fast transistion to new OLED lighting products.”

So-Light project partners are: Novaled AG (Dresden), Sensient Imaging Technologies GmbH (Bitterfeld-Wolfen), Fraunhofer IPMS (Dresden), LEDON OLED Lighting GmbH & Co. KG (Dresden), Aixtron AG (Aachen), Fresnel Optics GmbH (Apolda), Hella KGaA Hueck & Co (Lippstadt), Siteco Beleuchtungstechnik GmbH (Traunreut),  AEG-MIS mbH (Ulm), Universität Paderborn/L-LAB (Paderborn), Westfälische Wilhelms Universität Münster (Münster)

For the coming three years So-light will develop further display and special lighting applications covering all parts of the value chain. Until June 2012 project partners will work on new materials (transport materials, redox dopants, triplet-emitters, matrix materials), new optical technologies for guided light distribution, characterizing lighting application aspects of OLEDs and develop further process technologies for Small Molecule OLEDs.
