OSRAM ACHIEVES MAJOR STEP TOWARD FUTURE AUTOMOTIVE LIGHTING

The lighting manufacturer Osram has taken a major step toward organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) that are suitable for automotive applications. For the first time the company has developed an OLED that proved capable of withstanding temperatures of up to 85 degrees Celsius for several hundred hours in a laboratory long-term test. Temperature stability is the biggest challenge when it comes to making these innovative surface area light sources suitable for use in cars. "Since the success of this research we’re now tackling their future application in production vehicles", says Ulrich Eisele, responsible for the OLED business segment at Osram. "As the automotive industry plans and develops its future designs a long time in advance, we have to be involved today to help create the car of tomorrow."
