Introduction to AMOLED Displays
AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode) is a technology which describes a specific type of display and consists of active matrix of OLED pixel which generates light upon electrical activation. This technology is used in mobile devices, smart televisions, laptops, cameras and others. In an AMOLED display, many organic compounds are used to generate the electroluminescent material. This technology is an advanced version of OLED technology.
AMOLED display utilizes thin-film transistor which is used to maintain line pixel and enable large resolution and large size displays. It offers thin and compact displays and provides better energy management as compared to LED and LCD. It contains pixels of active matrix which generate images when electricity flows and are regulated by TFT displays. This makes the displays ideal for gaming and animation videos that require large volume of colors changing rapidly within seconds. This technology offers less power consumption and better picture quality.
Market Size and Forecast
Rapidly growing demand for high resolution and brighter display smart phones, computers, televisions, tablets and others electronic devices are anticipated to boost the growth of the AMOLED displays market during the forecast period i.e. 2019-2027. The material used in these displays is easily degradable and in compliance with the policies and regulations of Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Additionally, changing trends along with increase in per capita income of people across the globe are driving great opportunities in the market.
The global AMOLED displays market was valued at USD 22.1 Billion in 2018 and is estimated to reach USD 74.3 Billion by 2027. The market is anticipated to record a CAGR of around 19.3% over the forecast period i.e. 2019-2027. The market is segmented by display type, material, applications & end use industry. End use industry is further segmented into healthcare, automotive, consumer electronics, retail and others, out of which, the consumer electronics segment is anticipated to have leading shares on account of huge impact on users for the dynamic properties of these displays such as less power consumption, high-quality picture display and material properties which ultimately contribute to the minimization of the weight of the device.
On the basis of display type, the market is bifurcated into transparent, conventional, flexible & 3D segments. Among these segments, the flexible display segment is anticipated to have major shares owing to its manufacturing by flexible organic materials. The flexible AMOLED displays are light weight and durable in comparison to other kinds of displays and are being adopted rapidly across various regions.
