DuPont's employee tried to steal OLED secrets

Dupont has filed a suit (and fired) against a Chinese-born employee called Hong Meng who was allegedly about to leave to China with DuPont's OLED technology trade secrets. They say he was planning to take the information to Peking University in Beijing, who's already involved in OLED technology.

This is not the first time this happens to DuPont - two years ago another employee was charged with trade secret theft, and was sentenced to 18 months in prison.
