Application of Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) for Display Systems: Advanced Characteristics and Possible Solutions to Challenges 1. Introduction The first organic light emitting diode (OLED)‚ which was an innovatory of electroluminescence that emits light using organic materials‚ was reported in 1987 (Tang & VanSlyke‚ 1987). OLED displays are constructed by surrounding a glass or plastic substrate with organic compounds that emit light when current passes through them (Askari‚ 2014). Continuous
