Samsung will develop two-stack tandem OLED to win iPad order
Earlier reports pointed out that Apple is testing OLED panels for future iPad series products, hoping to use two-stack tandem OLED panels on the iPad series. This is different from the single-layer structure used by most smartphones at this stage. At the same time, the brightness is doubled and the service life will be four times the original, which means that Apple has put forward higher requirements.
According to The Elec, Samsung has started developing OLED panels with a two-stack tandem structure, in which there will be two emission layers (EML). Samsung named the material set for the new OLED panels as the T1 material set and plans to use the material for commercial production in 2023, while the subsequent T2 material set will be produced in 2024. If the iPad series uses Samsung’s two-stack tandem structure OLED panels, it may be made with the T2 material set. In addition to the iPad series, other tablets, laptops, and in-vehicle infotainment systems may be used.
Samsung may be the first to apply two-stack tandem OLED panels on its Galaxy Tab and Galaxy Book series. In fact, Samsung has cooperated with Apple in the past to develop 10-inch OLED panels for the iPad series, but the project was canceled in the third quarter of last year, according to rumors that Samsung proposed a single-stack structure.
The sample provided by LG received the highest score in Apple’s evaluation, which has already used double-stacked OLED panels in car screens. BOE is launching a new production plan. Its three factories will be converted into production plants for Apple’s OLED panels, increasing supply and securing orders for OLED panels for the iPad series.
