Samsung Mobile Display (SMD), the world's leading producer of OLED displays is currently completing the commissioning of plant capable of producing OLED panels of 65-inch (1.65 m). These screens could land in our living rooms in 2012. This is not the first OLED roadmap announcing large sizes coming soon, and it will doubtless not the last.
However, while OLED displays in Arles played for many years, we saw them arrive in force in 2010 on the smartphone market. Sony and LG have even ventured to commercialize OLED TV "large" (11 inches for the first 15 inches for the second). At IFA in Berlin last, LG has even promised a 31 "for the first half of 2011.
OLED TVs do not seem so large if more improbable than before. Nevertheless, even the largest prototype OLED on display in salons only not measure 65 "diagonally. The limit currently stands at 32 ". This limit comes from the manufacturing process of OLED panels: it needs to cut at least three times the slab of glass.
From a slab of glass of 1.3 mx 1, 5 m, manipulated by larger plants (which are now called 5.5 G), we can not only produce screens of 32 inches (82 cm) or less. Mobile Display Samsung would have found a new manufacturing process that reduces the number of cuts necessary and thus makes possible the manufacture of tiles, giant 65 inch.
