Universal Display Corporation’s FOLED® flexible OLEDs are organic light emitting devices that are built on flexible substrates such as plastic or metallic foil. FOLED displays can offer significant performance advantages over LCD displays that are typically built on rigid glass substrates and contain a bulky backlight.
FOLEDs are thinner and lighter weight than other displays.  This means that cell phones, portable computers, wall-mounted televisions and other products that use them can also be lighter and smaller.
FOLEDs can also be more durable – less breakable and more impact resistant – than other displays.
It is built on optically-clear plastic films and thin, bendable metallic foils are currently under development at Universal Display Corporation. Such displays may be made to bend, flex and conform to many surfaces. For example, FOLEDs may someday be found affixed to curved helmet face shields, shirtsleeve cuffs and automotive instrument panels.
