STUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
In this study, the goal of BCC Research is to determine the current status of
the market for organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) for 2010 and determine
their growth potential for 2011 and then to 2016. We were primarily
interested in the two major markets of electronic displays and solid state
lighting. Our most recent look at this industry was in August 2009 and we
were interested to see what changes had taken place in this industry.
Our key objective is to present a comprehensive analysis of the current market
for organic light emitting diodes and project the industry' s future direction.
REASONS FOR DOING THIS STUDY
The OLED has been a competitive electronic display technology for many years.
Although the liquid crystal display (LCD) has captured the lead in that
industry, it is being challenged by the OLED in the handheld environment. We
were interested in the potential of the organic display to compete with the
LCD and other displays for handheld, monitors and television applications.
We were also interested in the OLED as a solid-state lighting product. We
wanted to analyze its structure, differences from the inorganic LED, and
determine its future potential in this growing field.
SCOPE OF REPORT
The scope of this study encompasses OLED electronic displays and lighting
devices. BCC takes an analytical look at the OLED industry structure for
displays and lighting, identifies the major players, and analyzes the
competitiveness of both industries. For each technology, we determine its
current status, examine the impact of economic and technological conditions,
estimate the impact of future markets, and present forecasts for growth from
2010 to 2011 and then over the 5 year period from 2011 to 2016. Technological
issues, including the latest trends and activities, are also discussed. Other
essential factors such as the global economic environments are also discussed.
BCC Research analyzes the OLED industry on a worldwide basis, both from a
manufacturing and consumption point of view. We examine government and
industry support for research and development in the major regions of the
world. We also analyze market share for unit shipments and their value for
each type of display and lighting product.
METHODOLOGY
Both primary and secondary research methodologies were used in preparing this
study. BCC Research presents an analysis of the units shipped for 2010 and
for each major type of OLED display and lighting product. Our estimated value
is what manufacturers have paid in nondepreciated U.S. dollars. Based on our
surveys, we analyze the potential growth for each major product and then
forecast shipments for 2011 and 2016. We also analyze pricing trends and
establish shipment values for 2010 and project those for 2011 and 2016.
INFORMATION SOURCES
We interviewed approximately 125 companies to obtain data for this study,
Included were manufacturers of OLED displays and components, lighting devices,
consumer products, communication systems, instrumentation and transportation
equipment We also spoke with OLED users in a variety of industries and
compiled data from current financial/trade information, such as trade
publications and financial reports and government sources.
