World display market by 2010 as China to expand domestic demand, is expected to reach 13% growth rate.
OLED displays is the future direction of development, many countries have introduced the corresponding industrial promotion policies, to vigorously promote the development of OLED technology. South Korea, as a big country with Samsung monitor, LG and a number of internationally competitive display manufacturers. In order to seize the future display market, Ministry of Knowledge Economy in its development strategy launched several OLED industry regarded as an important development goals.
Ministry of Knowledge Economy released in January 2009 "Korea Green IT national strategy" outlined in the Republic of Korea at the time the status of OLED technology. United States, Europe, Japan and other countries are actively promoting alternative incandescent, fluorescent and other traditional sources of OLED technology research and development. The average annual investment of U.S. $ 3,000,000,000 of the R & D funds for OLED lighting research and development, plans to develop by 2012 an increase of 200% efficiency of OLED lighting. South Korea is still at the core of OLED lighting technology research and development the initial stage.
In this strategy, the South Korean government said that OLED lighting will be completed by 2011 core patented technology R & D in 2012 to promote the use of OLED lighting to enhance the efficient use of electricity, reducing the power consumption of 5 times. Government hopes that through the development of OLED technology, through the integration of lighting and IT technology to create a new generation of Energy saving lighting industry, to improve national competitiveness. Plans to 100% in 2027 to replace the lighting devices OLED lighting, energy consumption reduced by 15% compared to 2007 (street 30 billion won), greenhouse gas emissions by 6%.
In addition, on May 19 this year, the Korean government has launched a new "monitor industry trends and response program", a clear OLED Development Goals by 2013 to become the world's first AM-OLED display panel to achieve mass production of the country, leading a new generation display market. By 2015, Korea Times basic access to the monitor. South Korean-made products to display Equipment and spare parts material, in the Korean market share expanded to 70% (the current share of 50%).
In the "Monitor industry trends and response plans", the South Korean government will OLED industry as long-term development goals. The final purpose is to enable Korea to become the world's first AM OLED TV and OLED lighting panel of national production and to ensure that flexible displays, electronic publishing and other core areas of next-generation display technology competitiveness.
AM OLED TV for the completion of the production target, the South Korean government on the ongoing core production equipment and materials to provide strong Support for R & D projects, the future will be extended to the 8th generation of technology research and development. 2010, the government invested 75 trillion won, the existing section 5.5 on behalf of the AM OLED panels in the coating process vertically and horizontally into vertical and horizontal connection type of process technology. Also the same year also invested one billion won for the development of the core organic material. Private capital in 2010-2013 is expected to be 10 trillion won investment for AM OLED panel production equipment investment.
In order to develop a new generation of environmentally friendly lead the OLED lighting market, core equipment, the Korean government plans to vigorously promote the development of OLED lighting industry technology. 7 billion won in 2010 for research and development investment in the 4th generation of OLED lighting panel, while the amount of production equipment, personnel training as well as deSign and development of OLED lighting.
Meanwhile, the South Korean government will be the core technology of flexible displays flexible substrates, technology and equipment research and development support. Invest 10 billion won in 2010 to replace the existing flexible display for the glass substrate of plastic technology, investment, 2.2 billion won for the coating of flexible substrates AM OLED technology, will also on the low-temperature plasma display production equipment, and other flexible equipment research and development, and is expected to scale in the market by 2015.
