Breakthrough OLED Panels Can Mimic Sunlight

Researchers at the National Tsing-Hua University in Taiwan have successfully developed OLED panels that are capable of perfectly imitating sunlight.

This breakthrough in the design of indoor lighting using OLED panels may show the way to OLED lighting solutions that are brighter and greener.

J.H. Jou and his graduate students believe that by varying the voltage through the OLED panel from three to nine volts, ambient light can be produced which imiates natural light that changes from dawn to dusk.

Indoor lighting is presently being ruled by LEDs, but OLED technology promises to be better as they are thinner and consume less power. The OLED panels may soon replace LEDs, as they are easier on the human eye and saves energy, thereby reducing greenhouse gasses produced from making electricity.
