New high-efficiency light sources that can entirely displace incandescent lamps and fluorescent lights has been developed.
Scientists nonprofit research institute SRI International and the Japan-based chemical company Showa Denko KK (SDK) combined a resonant organic light-emitting diodes (cavity organic light-emitting diode, COLED) and the light-emitting polymers of SDK. COLED – this is a new structure that uses resonators to generate five times more light on the conventional OLED. The devices potentially twice the efficiency of fluorescent lamps containing mercury, has problems with the physical placement in compact devices.
