Today, Casio Computer <a href=\"http:\/\/www.casio.co.jp\/release\/2009\/display.html\">announced<\/a> [JP] it has teamed up with Tokyo-based technology company <a href=\"http:\/\/www.toppan.co.jp\/english\/\">Toppan Printing <\/a>to develop and produce OLED panels. The new joint venture will start operations from April 2010, with both companies involved saying they&#8217;ll focus on manufacturing OLED panels sized ten inches and smaller first (like the one you see in the picture).<\/p>\n<p>Those OLED screens are supposed to be used in digital cameras and cell phones by 2015. But Casio and Toppan also said they will conduct R&amp;D to eventually develop bigger sized OLEDs, for example for TVs, too. The OLEDs will be manufactured using high-polymer-type organic electroluminescent compounds, whereas OLED production today is mainly based on low-polymer organic compounds. According to the companies, their method is more efficient and simpler.<\/p>\n<p>Casio will first transfer 600 employees to a new firm, which will be established in February and will focus exclusively on OLED development. Toppan says it will then buy 80% of all outstanding shares of the joint venture (total capitalization: $4.5 million).<\/p>\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/Bnz1VbdJULHBMEmrcs4UWS_RGoU\/0\/da\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/Bnz1VbdJULHBMEmrcs4UWS_RGoU\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br\/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/Bnz1VbdJULHBMEmrcs4UWS_RGoU\/1\/da\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/Bnz1VbdJULHBMEmrcs4UWS_RGoU\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p><div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=XqZekENOQXc:cbcl8jiiKuA:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?i=XqZekENOQXc:cbcl8jiiKuA:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=XqZekENOQXc:cbcl8jiiKuA:F7zBnMyn0Lo\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?i=XqZekENOQXc:cbcl8jiiKuA:F7zBnMyn0Lo\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=XqZekENOQXc:cbcl8jiiKuA:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OLED can still pretty much be considered a thing of the future, but we&#8217;re getting closer to use the technology in our homes every month.
