Samsung QD-OLED yield rate has increased to 85%
Recently, Choi Joo-sun, president of Samsung Display, announced the company’s performance for the first half of the year at Giheung Campus in Yongin of Gyeonggi Province on July 1 and revealed some current business situations. It is said that the yield rate of QD-OLED panels has reached 85%. At the same time, the sales of small and medium-sized panels of Samsung Display in the first half of 2022 increased by 10% year-on-year, setting a record high.
According to Business Korea, it is of great significance for Samsung Display to increase the yield rate of QD-OLED panels to 85% to ensure customer confidence in its production. In November last year, Samsung Display mass-produced QD-OLED panels for the first time, with a yield rate of only 50%. In the following half a year, Samsung Display stabilized its output and yield rate. Sony and Dell Computer have respectively launched TVs and gaming monitors equipped with QD-OLED panels, and Samsung Electronics has also launched QD-OLED TVs in North American and European markets.
It was previously reported that Samsung Display decided to shut down its LCD panel production line six months ahead of schedule and completely withdraw from the LCD business. The focus of Samsung Display in the future will be QD-OLED panels specifically for TVs and monitors, as well as OLED panels for smartphones, smart watches, tablets, and laptops.
