Rolic opens a new OLED development center, to work on encapsulation and out-coupling materials

Rolic opened a new development facility in the Netherlands focused on OLED technologies. This will accelerate the company's OLED development and bring them into production, in close cooperation with locally specialized production companies.

In September 2012 Rolic have entered into a research partnership with the Holst Centre, with an aim to develop protective moisture barriers (encapsulation) for flexible electronics applications such as OLED and OPV. As part of that partnership, Rolic are developing new materials that will enable commercialization of of high-end flexible barriers and solutions for improved light out-coupling. This new development center will focus on the implementation and commercialization of those research and development results.

The new center will also develop industrial turnkey solutions for the manufacturing of protective layers with light in- and out-coupling functions to improve the energy efficiency of the OLED devices.
