Organic light-emitting diode

An organic light-emitting diode, or OLED for short, is a type of technology that can make really cool bright colorful lights on a screen or display. It starts with a special kind of material called organic, which is like a type of molecule that can make really bright and flashy colors.

The OLED works a bit like a sandwich, where the organic material is held between two layers of special conductive materials that can send electricity through the organic layer when switched on. When electricity runs through this sandwich structure, it makes the organic material glow and produce light. This is how we can see bright, vibrant colors on our OLED screens.

OLEDs are great for displays because they can be thinner, lighter, and more flexible than other types of displays, such as LED or LCD screens. They also use less power, which can make them better for the environment and cost less money to run.

So, when you're watching your favorite cartoon, playing your favorite game or even reading your favorite book on your phone or tablet, it is the OLED technology that brings the picture to life with bright, colorful lights.
